These 5 Nail Polish Colors Will Be Trending in 2022
December 28, 2021
In 2021, we spent a lot of time looking at our hands, catching glimpses of our nails each time we took part in yet another hand-washing sesh or spent hours catching up on viral TikTok videos. And while we’ll definitely be taking these rituals into 2022, we’re excited to switch things up and take a few new nail polish colors out for a test drive. Ahead, find the polish colors we think will be the trendiest shades of 2022.
1 / 5
Sheer Strength
You’ve grown so much this year – let your nails catch up by painting them with a sheer strengthening nail polish. Our favorite is the Essie Hard to Resist Nail Strengthener Treatment, a clear polish with a slight purple tint, which helps neutralize yellow and strengthen brittle nails.
2 / 5
Poppy Pink
An electric pink polish like Essie Pucker Up paired with fun pops of color in equally bold shades (think: orange, green and purple) is guaranteed to elevate your mood every time you type away on your computer.
3 / 5
Freshening Up
With a chameleon-like finish that reflects differently in the light, it’s impossible to get bored of an iridescent mani. We’re obsessed with JinSoon Epidote for 2022, a fresh, metallic green nail polish shade that ushers in ideas of harmony and abundance — which is exactly what we’re manifesting this year.
4 / 5
Pretty in Periwinkle
Pantone’s Color of the Year, Very Peri, a blue-toned purple, is going to be everywhere in 2022. Snag Àuda.B Blooming Lilac and paint it on your fingers and toes on repeat.
5 / 5
Earthy and Easy
Swap out your usual neutral polish for Paintbox Like Canyon Nail Lacquer, a warm tan color that is reminiscent of a comfy, inviting leather couch. It’s rusty, super pigmented and looks luxurious next to both warm and cool undertones.
