Spring is the season of pastels and candy colors. So, when we think about neutral Spring nails we want the florals and pastels, but we want them toned down. The pretty way of doing it is to weaken the colors in a sea of nudes and white bases. So, for this post, I dug deep into my nail ideas archives to bring floral, pastel, light pink, botanical, and everything Spring in designs that do not pop. These nail arts are perfect for anyone who wants to get into the season mood but with a low profile, discrete manicure.

I’d never have thought light purple and white Frenchies could be a neutral Spring design but look at this beauty.

Botanical on light lavender
I’m obsessed with how light lavender/purple can make a discrete yet colorful base for neutral Spring nail art. See how it elevated the white botanicals.

Earthy florals
There’s a fine line between neutral florals for Spring and Fall. However, as soon as I see an artificial limit (except legal and immigration), I tend to ignore it. This earthy set works beautifully as a neutral floral design for Spring as well as for Fall.

Light nude, universal
Nude (all shades of nude) is another universal neutral lacquer color that works every time, every season, for every mood.

Glitter, but neutral
The secret for a neutral nail with glitter is to go for thin particles, and soft colors and make sure it’s only a detail in the design, like this classic French tip.

Black & White flowers, back to basics
Black and white flowers are such a neutral but fun design for Spring. This set has maximalist thick white flowers with Frenchies, creating this funky 70s aesthetic. But the sky is the limit and the possibilities of combinations are endless.
