Minimalism is my strong suit—here are the understated, elegant, and stylish nail designs I’m drawing inspiration from for spring.
I am a minimalist at heart. Over the years, I have curated a capsule wardrobe and a capsule makeup bag to avoid accumulating items I don't use. When it comes to beauty, I prefer a minimalistic style, keeping my approach clean and simple—especially with my favorite nail trends. I enjoy writing about trendy nail art, but you'll rarely see me with anything besides a milky manicure or a classic white French tip. While I admire bold nail colors on others, they don't align with my personal aesthetic, and I've always regretted experimenting with such styles in the past.
That's why I dedicated considerable time to exploring the top minimalist nail ideas available, discovering a selection of chic, understated manicures to try this spring. For those of you who appreciate a more subtle look, there's plenty of inspiration ahead. Here are my favorite minimalist nail ideas for the season...
