Nails: Top Five Spring Polishes 2025

Today is the Spring equinox, and so I'm sharing my Spring 2025 nail polish picks.

I have done this type of post before which you can see 2023 here, 2022 here, 2021 here, 2020 here, 2019 here, 2018 here, 2017 here, 2015 here and 2014 here.

You don't need these specific polishes, but these are ones that I want to reach for during Spring. I seem to have gone for a mix of muted, holo, shimmer and micro glitter polishes this year.

Nail Polish Battle 2023: Purple

There were 14 new polishes in this category in 2023;

Lumen Sunkissed Skies // Painted Polish Blueberry Bliss // Orly Serendipity // Barry M Wisteria // Orly Opposites Attract // Danglefoot Have You Got the Passports // Mooncat Smokescreen // Rogue Fantasyland // Barry M Orchid // Fancy Gloss Galaxy Orchid // KbShimmer How Polarizing // Penelope Luz Toss a Coin to Your Witcher // A England Van Helsing // A England Whitby Abbey

Trying to pick the top three of this category was hard.

Smokescreen is a magnetic polish, with a magenta shimmer;

Galaxy Orchid is a thermal cream going from purple when cold to blue when warm.

Which means the winner of this round is How Polarizing which is purple, navy magnetic polish with scattered holo particles.
