There’s no time like a nail rut. When it feels like every nail shade in the world is “been there, done that,” the thought of getting your nails done or—the horror!—painting them yourself feels like that chore you put off time and time again. But there’s no shortage of nail ideas in the digital age, and after looking at the biggest nail trends of the season, I refuse to go another day without investing a little time into my at-home manicure.
If you’re ready to outfit your hands in something different, scroll through for the biggest nail color trends of the year.
1. Electric Blue
Ask our fashion editor: Electric-blue is going to be everywhere. And the easiest way to find out is by looking at your nails. Whether you go for bright all over, French, or add it as an accent nail, it’s bound to make an impression.
2. Cherry
Red will never go out-of-fashion, but we see new shades of it every season. Right now, bright, “cherry jelly” nails are all the rage. It’s bright and fun but doesn’t feel too summery or holiday—the perfect choice for someone looking to feel confident when they look down at their hands.
3. Jewel Tones
Teal, violet, emerald—get ready to see it all. Bonus points if it is metallic or glittery.
4. Periwinkle
Pantone’s Color of the Year “Very Peri” is making its wave through the nail industry. It’s a fun, pastel shade any skin tone can wear, and it’s the perfect primer for spring.
5. Shades of Pink
No matter if you choose to wear one or all of them (as shown above), any shade of pink is acceptable. Bubblegum, Fuschia, Barbie, millennial, baby—we’re welcoming every single variation of our favorite hue.
6. Rhinestones
Even though it’s only a few episodes into season two, Euphoria already has a significant impact on the beauty industry. Rhinestones are a massive beauty trend of 2022 across makeup and hair, and we’re about to see it majorly in nails. Whether you apply them yourself or opt for press-ons, it’s pretty simple to do at home.
7. Rosy Beige
If you’re a neutral nail lover, this is the hue to try this season. It’s simple yet anything but basic, and it looks good on every single skin tone.
