For a playful spin on your regular manicure, this gorgeous design from Glosslab is sure to turn heads and boost your mood instantly. It’s a combination of two of the most popular nail trends of summer: pastels and checks.

To get in on the trend, pick an accent nail or two and add checkered patterns in clashing colours such as yellow and purple. Then, leave the rest with a clear base coat and add bright details that you love at the top, such as smiley faces, flowers and hearts for a fresh summer look.

Greens of all different shades will continue to be popular for summer 2022, according to Rachel Apfel Glass, founder of Glosslab. “Many of our clients are requesting manicures with elegant olives, classy emeralds and even neon greens for something bright and fun," she says.

If you can’t decide on one colour, why not mix things up for a more vibrant result? You can also go for glossy and sparkling finishes, and apply small waves or checks along the edges.

We all love classic red nails, but this season, make creamy pinks your go-to colours.

“Pink is always a popular shade for summer and this year is no exception,” says Glass. “Perfect for those who want a simple single-colour manicure, this hue is very feminine and will effortlessly fit into your favourite warm-season outfits.”

Metallics and glitters are a big trend at the moment, and it’s not stopping anytime soon.

“Consider using iridescent nail polishes if you want to elevate your classic single-colour manicure this season,” says Tsang. “They make for a mesmerising look in different angles of light! Pink hues are an incredibly versatile choice that will complement all skin tones.”

No matter the season, floral nails are always a great idea. An Instagram-worthy creation, seen here at Ooh La La Nails, is a bright design that is sure to garner plenty of compliments. Pick an accent nail or two and add hand-painted daisies on top against a clear base coat to make the patterns stand out. The floral details look gorgeous when paired with pastels and purple shades—another major trend for summer.

Embrace the summer vibes and wear some gold jewellery for maximum impact.
