How pretty is the Dior spring 2022 nail polish collection! For the upcoming warm weather season, Dior has given us soft pastel hues for our nails, and I am here for it!

These fresh pastels offer a timeless spring vibe along with a new take on nail polish when paired with Dior’s limited-edition Opal top coat. This top coat offers the same chip resistant, and quick drying properties as the regular Dior top coat, but with added sparkle, and a very, very slight pink sheen. It’s fabulous.

There are two trends for spring 2022 nail polish to watch for this year: pastel hues, and medium-hued neutrals. Dior gave us a couple of neutrals for the cruise 2022 season, and for spring 2022, they have given us pastels. Love!

So, without further ado, here are the two pastel nail polish colors from Dior for spring 2022, along with the sparkling top coat.

Dior Mineral Peach nail polish spring 2022

Dior Mineral Peach nail polish is exactly as it sounds; it is a pastel peach. This soft and classic spring hue offers just enough pigment to saturate your nails with pastel peach. It is a pretty color, and it is also fun! This hue makes me think of orange creamsicles. Ugh, is it summer yet? Yum!

Dior Rose Quartz nail polish spring 2022

Pink and feminine all the way! Dior Rose Quartz nail polish is a vivid pastel pink which also offers a timeless, spring vibe. This is the perfect hue if you want to stay conservative in the office, yet have a little fun on your nails. It totes the line. Love that!

Dior Opal top coat spring 2022

Well, my camera does not do Dior Opal top coat justice. You will have to take my word for it! This is a sparkling top coat with a very, very slight pink sheen. I love how it completes the overall spring 2022 nail look. If you don’t snap up one of the two colors from this collection, please get this top coat! You can put it over any spring nail polish you wish; it’s fun and fabulous. I love it! Dior Opal top coat also adds enough fun to brighten one’s day; and we all need a bright day right now! I am in love with this top coat!

I’m in love with the new Chanel nail polish spring 2022 collection! Although it only has two colors, the spring 2022 nail polish collection from Chanel offers an avant-garde yet traditional spring hue, as well as an earthy neutral for the warm weather season. There is a color for everyone in this small yet perfect collection! Love!

The spring 2022 season is bright, light, and cheerful. Designers are playing with lighter neutrals, pastels, and bright hues for the spring season, when it comes to our apparel. This is a fabulous season to choose your favorite color palette and play with it when building your spring wardrobe; or you can indulge in all the colors! 2022 is our year. We are going to have fun! So, let’s start with our nails, shall we?

Chanel has given us a pale pastel, and a vivid neutral for the spring 2022 season. They are both colors to have in our spring nail polish wardrobe. I tested both Chanel Riviera and Chanel Terra Rossa out with one base coat, and two coats of color. They are both chip resistant, cream polishes which glide on smooth and offer pretty, saturated color. Love! So, without further ado, here are the two nail polish colors from Chanel for the spring 2022 season!

Chanel nail polish spring 2022 | Chanel Riviera

Chanel Riviera nail polish is a soft, pale yellow hue which offers traditional spring vibes. Of course, we normally think of pale yellow on clothing, and sometimes shoe or handbags; not our nails. This spring Chanel is putting this sweet, springy hue on our nails, and I am in love! This is the fresh and new color we have all been waiting for. I plan to rock this color during the season as much as possible. Love!

Although I used two coats of color for these photos, this polish can easily streak if the coats are not carefully applied. Be prepared to touch up your mani if one of your coats was too thin.

Chanel nail polish spring 2022 | Chanel Terra Rossa

If traditional nail colors are more your speed, Chanel Terra Rossa is a combination of terra cotta and rose. It’s a neutral hue you can wear to the office and pair with any color palette this spring season. If you prefer a neutral color for your nails, this is the one! Terra Rossa is also a great color to wear now as we transition from winter into spring. Since it is a little darker than Riviera, you can pair it with your winter wardrobe, and it will blend in well. This is the color I am wearing now, as I type this post since it is still very much winter here!
