The Hottest Nail Colours for Summer 2023

As the temperatures start to hot up, you might have started thinking about the colours you’re going to match with your tan. Which shades will you opt for, for those lazy days at the beach and hot nights at the bar? Here are the hottest nail colours for summer 2023.

Pretty pastels

From soft yellows to lavender, pastels are having a moment. Especially lavender, which everyone in the know seems to be sporting on their hair and in their eye makeup too. Pastels are a very pretty transition from the darker hues of winter. We love OPI INFINITE SHINE - Lavendare to Find Courage.

Pink to make everyone wink

Pink is always popular, but this year, there are two big reasons. The first is the release of the Barbie movie and second is the announcement of the pantone colour of 2023, Viva Magenta. A hot pink like CCO Nail Gel - Pink Bikini is sure to be among the hottest nail colours for summer 2023.  

Healthy blush nails

If you want to make your nails appear healthy after months of wearing darker colours, opt for a sheer blush shade. CCO Nail Gel - Blush Teddy goes with everything.

Denim nails

Want to coordinate your nails with your denim shorts or your relaxed boyfriend jeans? A rich blue like CND Vinylux - Blue Rapture is just what you need. Pair it with a matte top coat to create denim vibes.

Go French

A popular choice at any time of the year, French tips go with anything in the summer. Understated yet classy, you can keep them classic or paint the tips in one of the hottest nail colours of summer 2023 to change things up. Oh, and there’s only one shape for this summer’s French tips; square!

Cherry red

If you love bold nails, sport a bright cherry red this summer. Pair it with a high shine top coat to create juicy nail vibes. We love CND Shellac - Devil Red.

So there you have it, a round up of some of the hottest summer shades you should be wearing this year. What’s your favourite summer polish? We’d love to know.
