I'm a Pro At Spotting Nail Trends—5 Nail Colours You're Going to See Everywhere This April

April is here, our trench coats are out, and so too is a whole host of spring-leaning nail trends. This transitional period before the dresses and sandals officially take over our wardrobe can feel hard to navigate fashion-wise, but when it comes to beauty it's the perfect moment to try something new or opt for an effective yet simple seasonal change like switching up your nail colour.

Chic nail art has undoubtedly reigned supreme over the past few years, but if you are looking for a key colour (or base for nail art) to try as your April nail selection, there are plenty of bold options to choose from. As a nail-obsessed beauty editor who is always on the lookout for Wholesale Replica Bag trends, I've spotted so many chic yet fun shades out there. From cool blue and gentle lilac shades to deep brown nail polish and butter yellow hues that glisten in different lights, there are lots of nail colours to choose from ahead of your April manicure appointment.

Scroll on to discover the five nail colours you're sure to see everywhere this month, as well as the products you can shop now to help get the look at home.

5 Trending April Nail Colours, According to a Beauty Editor

1. Cool Blues

What better way to (hopefully) ring in a month filled with bright, sunny blue skies than a classic baby blue polish? This shade looks amazing on any skin tone and can be worn in a variety of ways making it perfect for under floral nail art or as all over colour. For best results, finish with a gel top coat for an at-home mani that rivals salons.

Cool blue is always a good shade to go for when trying out new nail designs, and this manicure looks so chic.

2. Deep Browns

Bright pastels might be the go-to for most of us looking for April nail colours, however if you find yourself feeling stuck somewhere between bold yellows and more minimalist manicures, then maybe a deep brown is about to become your go-to.

With celebrity nail connoisseurs also choosing to pick up the brown brush and with seemingly endless nail art options (cc: the art deco-inspired look above) it looks like deep chocolate hues are here to stay.

3. Coral Hues

I've been seeing coral nail designs all over my Instagram feed as of late, and in my opinion, this is the perfect nail colour for April and beyond. If you don't fancy going for all over colour, this shade makes a super chic French tip.

To keep things really chic, opt for a micro French tip like the design above. I love the subtle pop of colour.

4. Butter Yellow

Yellow can often feel like the most unapproachable of the nail polish colours due to its boldness. However, this April, butter yellow is having its moment in the sun. This creamy, more understated shade is such a great transitional colour.

If you are usually a nude and muted tone nail lover, don't let initial assumptions about the colour sway you, as butter yellow it is actually one of the most versatile colour options out there.

5. Lilac

I know what you're thinking, more pastels for spring? But hear me out. Forget mint greens and pastel pinks, as this chic lilac shade is a fresh take on your usual spring hues for 2025. It seems that nail artists agree as I've been seeing the colour all over social media.

If you don't want to go for a full-on lilac manicure, why not opt for a more subtle lilac French tip?
