Nail art to try in May: raspberry red

Raspberry red is a shade that makes a statement without being too over-the-top. It strikes the perfect balance between red and pink, making it incredibly feminine and versatile, ideal for any occasion. Perfect for anyone looking for a color that matches everything, but with a little twist of originality. If you haven’t tried it yet, now’s the perfect time to add it to your palette!

Glass nails

Glass nails are a growing trend, loved for their elegant and luminous finish. This look is defined by its shiny, almost glass-like effect—but it doesn’t have to be clear! You can play with geometric patterns, abstract lines, or color gradients that make the effect even more interesting and unique. Perfect for those who want an elegant yet creative and unconventional manicure.

Earth tones

In spring, nature awakens and treats us to a palette of colors—from bright greens to warm earthy browns. Choosing earth tones for your nail art this month is like a little tribute to this natural rebirth. With shades that recall earthy colors—like beige, sandy hues, olive green, and terracotta—these nails bring a touch of the outdoors right to your fingertips.

Fruit (literally)

Unlike raspberry red, where the bold color is the star, fruit-inspired nail art is all about detail. Kiwis, strawberries, figs—each fruit is delicately drawn on the nail, turning them into tiny works of art. It’s not just the illustration that inspires, but also the texture of the fruit itself, with glossy, semi-transparent, or slightly raised finishes that mimic pulp or seeds. The result? Nails that are fun, fresh, and super creative.

Short and ultra-natural

Another trending look—especially among celebrities—is short, natural nails, with maybe just a hint of clear polish or a milky pink glaze. After years of long, decorated, and highly stylized nails, the return to simplicity feels like a breath of fresh air. This style speaks of care, cleanliness, and natural beauty—perfect for anyone who loves a minimal yet polished look. The idea is to make them look healthy, shiny, and neat.
