Daisy Nails
Floral designs are a no-brainer for spring. Dainty daisies are the perfect nod to spring with their innocent charm. Experiment with the ditzy florals and go bold or minimal with the daisy motif.
Wear them over a French manicure or negative space, and they look great against a contrasting opaque background. There is no escaping flower nail art for the springtime.

Daisies don’t have to be white and yellow, they can be any warm color, but for maximum impact ask your nail tech to utilize contrasting shades to celebrate the essence of spring.
