Hot Nails Colors For 2023
New Year, new resolutions and nail trends! Experts predict which color shades they think will be popular this 2023.
Falcone suggests wearing pink ballet slipper-colored polish as a nod to the recent balletcore trend, such as Essie’s Butler Please shade.
Mint Green
Green nail polish made a big statement this spring and summer. It became one of the must-have hues to wear while transitioning between summer styles such as shorts and classic tees to more formal clothing in fall and showing off your nail designs.
Pistachio nails or matcha latte nails – whatever you call them! — are perfect for those who appreciate lighter nail colors but desire something with more depth. This earthy hue looks equally stunning with intricate nail art or just classic French manicure.
Before your next manicure session – either at home or the salon – take note of these top trending nail colors! Test them on yourself using YouCam Nails!
Grass Green
If Barbie pink has become your go-to color for manicures, perhaps grass green should be on your radar. Manicurist Mazz Hanna suggests this muted hue as embodying summer vacation vibes.
For those looking to make a bold statement, she suggests opting for rich jewel tones like this OPI shade or bolder hues like pistachio green or gold. For a more subtle look she suggests trying muted shades in either moss or olive colors.
Red is a timeless color and makes an eye-catching statement when worn during either summer’s last days or as we transition into autumn. For an added pop of color, try candy apple red!
Cobalt Blue
Cobalt blue is an elegant and lively hue, which falls neither warm nor cool on the spectrum. It has moderate tinting strength and is one of Winsor & Newton’s Series 4 pigments formulated to emulate ultramarine from hand-ground semiprecious lapis lazuli semi-precious stone.
Falcone recommends this shade as ideal for the current “glazed donut Hailey Bieber” manicure trend, or use it with silver shimmer to create nail art like squiggles, lines or Aztec designs.

Hydrangea Blue
Floral nail designs make an eye-catching summer manicure. Seen on runways across the globe, this trend adds flair and creativity to your manicure. Give a classic French tip some blooms or go all-out by painting an ombre flower design!
Celebrity nail stylist Mazz Hanna predicts that mysterious shades such as plum will be popular this winter and beyond, particularly on classic red nails as a perfect base for glitter or dark crystals. She thinks plum is ideal as part of an overall color palette for both winter and beyond.
Brown
2023 is witnessing the popularity of brown nail colors among women who prefer discreet yet serious looks, complementing well with golden accessories and details.
Lavender Haze Nail Trend for Summer
Kandalec predicts a moody yet not dark brown color palette this fall that pairs equally well with chic black dresses or cozy sweaters, making this muted hue an excellent way to avoid the overpowering orange hues often associated with this season.
Pink
Pink nails are an elegant summer essential, whether with glossy gloss or glittery sparkle. Their femininity makes them the ideal alternative to this year’s Pantone Color of the Year (Viva Magenta is sure to come back into fashion this year anyway! Plus there’s an exciting new Barbie movie coming out!).
If pink isn’t quite your cup of tea, consider switching it up with powdery peach shades or buttery blush hues – both popular on Instagram. Or go bold and sport a candy red manicure that shows off your fun side; wear this trend solo or add embellishments like black hearts, seashells or even mermaid tail decals for maximum effect!
