Nail Colour Trends that Left a Mark

From dreamy pastels that feel just as enchanting as our dream wedding, to royal blue manicures that reinforce the boss woman vibe, 2025 tapped into the inner ambitions. On that note, let’s dive right into the nail trends that continue to inspire upcoming trends this year!

1. Elegant Espresso

With Mocha Mousse titled the ‘Pantone Color of the Year’ for 2025, these Espresso nails were a trendsetter for beauty lovers. Shades of warm brown, brick brown, and grey brown worked beautifully to bring harmony to our day-to-day look. These brown nail colours also helped evoke a sense of elegance and peace.

2. Nude Nails

The ‘Old Money’ aesthetic made a major comeback in 2024 and 2025, making us all crave for a nude nail manicure. Nude nail colour continues to be like our reliable besties; always dependable, be it any occasion. A glossy beige nude tone can complement your work days as well as your exciting date nights! 

3. Glossy Lilac

Glossy Lilac nails became popular in 2025 for the softness of pastel shades, and also for complementing even the deeper skin tones. 

4. Slanting Swipes 

The nail art technique made waves for the solid application of pastel shades. With a small slanting swipe on the tip of the nail, it was topped with a white nail paint slanting from the other direction.

5. Art Deco Bottle Green

This bottle green nail colour is inspired by the charm of Art Deco – an era of shiny luxury and sophistication. Art Deco as a French design style uses a lot of strong deep colours and geometric patterns to create a modern look. A beloved French style with classy green swipes! 

6. Soft Winter Nails

Festive nails were a favourite in the winter season of 2025. How to do it? Try a classic French on your ring finger and thumb, adding a few snowflakes to the pinky and index finger. With the help of a stencil and a white nail shade, create a cool candy-cane design too! 

7. The Royal Violets

The rarity of this shade in the ancient times has made violet a symbol of royalty. One of the top colours of 2025, violet evokes jewel-like richness. Make your nails gleam like rare gems with a generous swipe of this enriching shade!

8. Ombre Obsession

Ombre nails are a classic that keeps coming back! Ombre essentially as a style is where two or more nail colours are blended to create a smooth fade. Having gained a strong popularity in 2024 for its long nails effect, this nail trend remained a go-to in 2025 as well. 

9. Pinterest-y Colour Palette

Colour palettes simplify the beauty surrounding us - whether it’s paintings or movies. We all have, at some point, browsed color palettes to take inspiration for our room decors. Well, the same theory applies to nail art as well! Reds, the blues, the mauves, the yellows  helped create a custom color palette with nail art. This nail art trend was perfect for breaking the rules of monotony!

10. Playful Neon Spacings

Who says you can’t look posh in vibrant, high saturation neon shades? The empty spacing trend combined with the colourful French tips became the cutest nail trend in 2025! The poppy tips pair well with fashion trends, especially the tulle and fringe styles. 

So, there you go! Those were some super fun nail trends from 2025! From earthy espresso tones to the vibrant neons, the 2025 season of nail trends was a truly an exciting one!
