Nothing beats the warm, cheerful vibe of a springtime manicure — it’s like walking around with a built-in mood-booster. Even as temperatures still slowly creep upwards, these celebrity spring nail art ideas will make anyone feel the sunshine. Ahead, a spring-y design for every taste.

As an April-born Taurus, Lizzo is practically the queen of spring — have you seen her beyond lush backyard? Fittingly, some of her best manicures feature nature motifs, like this long, square-tipped French manicure with fluttery butterflies by Eri Ishizu.@eriishizu
Florals are always a spring favorite, but this hyper-realistic set by Tom Bachik for Selena Gomez brilliantly incorporates deeper colors and tones — perfect for early spring when the weather doesn’t necessarily match the energy.@tombachik
For a more modern, minimalist take on flower nail art for spring, Tom Bachik dressed up Camila Cabello’s nails with eye-popping 3D flowers that add a cool textured element to a simple white manicure.@tombachik
Spring is about reinvention, so consider thinking outside the box with your manicures. Kendall Jenner’s tortoiseshell French manicure, created by Lisa Kon, borrows the pattern from your favorite pair of spring sunglasses for a fun twist on a classic.@kendalljenner
Kourtney Kardashian takes her nail art seriously, and it’s clear she’s passing her passion on to the next generation. In a sweet matching moment with her daughter, Kardashian’s Kim Truong-painted flower nail art is especially adorable.@kimkimnails
Some excellent news for the season: the aura nails trend shows no sign of slowing down in spring 2023. And when the colorful, hazy nail art is as good as it is on Justine Skye, why would it? Sky’s almond-shaped mani was created by Mei Kawajiri.@nailsbymei
Kerry Washington famously has some of the best manicures in Hollywood — and this minimalist look is proof. Accenting her cheerful, sunflower-yellow nails with negative space tips, she flips the entire French manicure trend on its head.@kerrywashington
That said, there’s a case for resisting one nail color the entire hand. Lana Condor’s negative-space pastel manicure features a different spring-friendly shade on each finger for a soft rainbow effect every time she waves hello.@lanacondor
For a BRITS ceremony, Dua Lipa went for twin trails of blue that captures all the energy of a springtime sky. The double French manicure style is an increasingly popular one, made all the better by the twinkling stars nail artist Michelle Humphrey added. @nailsbymh
Though she’s mostly known for her now-legendary chrome nail trend, Hailey Bieber loves to dabble in cute, minimalist nail art. Her tiny daisies practically fade into the glossy nude background of her nail beds, adding subtle pops of color and texture.@haileybieber
