6 Nail Polishes To Stock Up On This Spring

This article is written by a student writer from the Her Campus at Fairfield chapter.

Can you guys believe that we are finally here, SPRING!? I swear there was a point when I believed spring and warmer weather were just myths, but those days are finally here! During fall and winter I feel pretty limited with my nail polish color choices, but when spring rolls around, it brings with is many more colorful nail polish choices! We can say goodbye to the heavy intense dark colors– the oxblood red, navy blues, and burgundies– and welcome lighter, fresher colors! Pastels to neon, I love experimenting with all sorts of nail polishes, and here are my top 6 nail polishes for the spring season:

 

1) Essie- Mint Candy Apple

 

This polish would look perfect with a tan! Or at least with hands that are not pasty white.

 

2) OPI- You’re Such a Budapest

 

Nothing says spring like a lilac color on your freshly painted nails.

 

3) Essie- Butler Please 

Wake up your manicure in this vivid royal blue. I promise when you wear this you will receive tons of compliments. 

 

4) Deborah Lippmann- Blue Orchid

Lighter blue shades give off a relaxed, resort vibe that is perfect for when the weather is warmer. Also, this shade would look great on your toes and is perfect for work or play!

 

5) Butter London- Ladybird

This neon reddish orange polish is the perfect way to say hello to spring!

 

6) Sally Hansen- White On

As a nail polish junkie, a white nail polish is a must for any occasion. Also, a white nail polish will make you have more of that bronzy glow you want.
