Glittering powder blue tips: To embrace the season’s gorgeous blues, paint three fingers with a shimmery sky blue and then add a dose of sparkling light blue to two alternating fingers. This particular manicure uses Zoya’s Rebel and Vega Magical PixieDust, for a subtly contrasting and perfectly cool nail statement.

Softly blended yellow and orange hues: If you prefer blendable nail art in warm tones, take your inspiration from this spring mani by nail blogger Olivia Anderson. The nail look uses Essie’s Silk Watercolors shades, which include the white base coat White Page, yellow Muse, Myself, pastel orange Art New-Beau and light pink Love Sheen. To achieve the look, start off by preparing your nails with a base coat and applying multiple coats of White Page. Next, prepare 10 cut-up sections of plastic wrap, and spread tiny drops of the three coloured nail polishes on the surface of each nail. Use tiny balls of the wrap to dab the three colours for a pretty blended effect, and allow your nails to dry. For a finishing touch, apply a clear top coat to lock in the gorgeous new manicure.

Varying shades of feminine pink: For a burst of flamingo inspired colour, try refreshing your fingertips with various hues of pink. This Sally Hansen Miracle Gel nail idea stuns with alternating shades of the brand’s Electric Pop and Pinkterest polish colours, which create an eye-catching and ladylike manicure look.
