Nails: Top Five Spring Polishes 2026

As tomorrow is the Spring equinox, and so I'm sharing my Spring 2026 nail polish picks.

I have done this type of post before which you can see 2025 here, 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 shimmer, pastels, flakies, chunky and micro glitter polishes this year.
