Negative space nails. From rainbow tips to floating flowers, there are all kinds of nail art designs to choose from in this trend. Whether you’re experimenting with your own polishes at home or heading to your fave salon, we’ve got some inspo for your next Spring manicure.

We’ve brought in the help of content creators @matteabout_nails and @thehangedit to show you how it’s done – make sure you’re following them on Instagram to see more of their work!

HAPPY FLOWERS

What could be brighter and happier than mini Spring flowers with super smiley faces?! Not much, we’d guess. Here’s a one-stop way to bring all the happy vibes to your mani – and you can make the most of some of our fave Spring products. Don’t forget your dotting tool and fine nail art brush.

RAINBOW HEART TIPS

What’s better than a classic love heart? A rainbow one of course! Create a multi-coloured mani with our Plant Power spring shades, then tip your ring finger with a trio of tiny hearts. You might want to use a dotting tool and nail art brush for this too – steady hand needed!

BLUE WAVES

Love a bit of blue? Take a few tones and combine them for this look. You can spot the negative space on just one nail here, but you can always customise for yourself and simplify the look by painting a wave line over each. Our popping cobalt blue shade is the star of this nail show.

Back To Life, Inner Peace of Me, Clean To The Core

This one requires a little more concentration, dedication and skill. That said, grab that fine nail art brush and experiment with checked nails. We recommend using all of the shades in our cherry-scented set, Check Please. You’ll smell that fruity fragrance as soon as it dries down…

SPRING BLOOMS

We still can’t get enough of the Spring pastels, and in honour of the fresh blooms that are appearing on every street corner, we present this nail look. Alternate the pastel shades on each finger, experiment with tips, and top it all off with some trending dotted flowers. What’s not to love?

TWO-TONE TIPS

This is a simpler one, for the minimalists among us. We’ve taken the liberty of picking the shades for you here – and you can find them boxed and ready in our Feeling So Fly set. They’re the perfect pairing of complementary colours – just paint them on your tips, with the opposite shade as a half moon at your cuticle.
