Spring Nails! Need ideas for your spring nail colors this year? Below, discover our spring nail color picks and get inspiration.

Spring is just around the corner in the Northern Hemisphere and the warm winds have just started to blow on the sunny days. 

Birds are chirping, the days are getting longer, and pretty soon, daffodils, iris, and tulips will all be in bloom.

This Spring, there are many options for how to style your next manicure, but choosing your color is the best part.

So to make your spring color selection process easier, and to share inspiration, here are our Top 5 Spring nail color picks for 2022:

OPI Graffiti Sweetie, a lavender purple nail polish bottle, on pink marble background

1 - OPI Graffiti Sweetie

Graffiti Sweetie is new on the market. It was released in Fall 2021 as part of the Downtown LA Collection, and it is defined by OPI as a sweet lilac creme shade.

It is indeed a lovely lavender light purple that is perfect for cool, sunny spring days - it reminds you of delicate lilac flowers.

OPI I Am What I Amethyst bottle, a periwinkle sky blue purple nail polish, on pink marble background

2 - OPI I Am What I Amethyst

I Am What I Amethyst debuted on the blog last spring. 

This spring, this lovely shade finds itself within the boundaries of Pantone’s 2022 color of the year, Very Peri.

Very Peri is a rich periwinkle. I AM What I Amethyst is definitely a pastel version of that deeper periwinkle shade, but within the same color family. 

So if you are looking to get on the Very Peri bandwagon, I Am What I Amethyst is a gorgeous pastel option.

OPI Infinite Shine Strawberry Margarita bottle, a bright pink longwear nail polish, on pink marble background

3 - OPI Infinite Shine Strawberry Margarita

At OPI, Strawberry Margarita is one of their neon shades. It’s a bright, vibrant pink, shown in the Infinite Shine 2 longwear formula bottle. It also comes in OPI’s classic lacquer and gel formulas.

If you are looking for a bold color that lasts, look no further than this formula.

OPI Taupe-less Beach bottle, a purple toned brown-gray nail polish, on pink marble background

4 - OPI Taupe-less Beach

Taupe-less Beach is a light gray mixed with lavender purple that’s in the neutral family of shades. It’s from the OPI Brazil Collection which is a gorgeous suite of shades as a whole.

Taupe is a shade that is thought to contain both properties of brown and gray, with hints of other shades, so it is an incredibly versatile color and can have many nuanced undertones.

If you’re a lavender fan, this is a great taupe shade. It’s also great if you’re looking for a touch of color this spring, but still want to stay in the work-friendly zone.

Orly Kaleidoscope Eyes bottle, a lilac pink nail polish, on pink marble background

5 - Orly Kaleidoscope Eyes

Kaleidoscope Eyes is a bright, cool lilac pink that’s part of the Summer 2021 Electric Escape Collection. It was one of Orly’s Top 5 best sellers last year, and it was only released mid-way through the year. 

Kaleidoscope Eyes is beautiful and perfect for matching to spring floral patterns. It leans “Barbie” pink or a bubble gum pink spectrum of purple. It’s right on the edge of purple-pink.
