Easter is just around the corner, and while you might be thinking about egg hunts and chocolate bunnies, don’t forget another fun way to celebrate the season: updating your manicure! Easter, with its soft pastel colours and springtime vibes, offers the perfect excuse to refresh your nails with some playful and creative designs. So, if you’re looking for a bit of Easter nail inspo, you’ve come to the right place.
Pastel Perfection
When we think Easter, we think pastels. These soft, dreamy colours are a natural fit for the season. Think baby pink, sky blue, mint green, and lavender. A simple, solid-colour manicure using these shades is both elegant and seasonally appropriate. For an added twist, add an ombre effect. Blend these colours together on your nails for a look that’s as sweet as Easter candy.
Egg-citing Patterns
Easter eggs aren’t just for hiding, they’re also perfect for nail art inspiration. You can mimic the look of decorated Easter eggs on your nails with polka dots, stripes, and zigzags in pastel colours. For an extra touch of fun, add a metallic or glitter accent nail in gold or silver, reminiscent of those fancy, foil-wrapped chocolate eggs.
Bunny Accents
What’s Easter without a bunny or two? You don’t need to go full-on Easter basket, but a subtle bunny silhouette on an accent nail can be absolutely adorable. Pair it with pastel pink or baby blue nails, and you’ve got a manicure that’s both cute and festive. If you’re feeling adventurous, tiny paw prints across your nails can be a playful nod to the Easter bunny’s visit.
Floral Flair
From delicate daisies to simple cherry blossoms, adding a floral touch to your nails can complement any Easter outfit. You can opt for a detailed design on one or two nails or go for a more subdued look with floral accents on a pastel base.
Glitter and Shine
For those who love a bit of sparkle, Easter is the perfect time to shine. A glittery topcoat over a pastel base can add just the right amount of pizzazz to your manicure. Or, for something a bit different, try a metallic eggshell crackle effect over your favourite Easter pastel for a look that’s as unique as it is festive.
