Spring manicure ideas: mint green nail polish / blue sparkling top coat / pink nail polish /

There is nothing like a good top coat! Not only does a top coat make your manicure last longer, it can add a little something special to the overall look. Love that!

For the spring 2025 season, Dior has given us an unexpected top coat. Normally when a top coat isn’t a plain ‘ol clear coat, it is a glittering, sheer polish. This spring, Dior has given us a slightly opaque, blue top coat which adds a slightly different look to our nail polish. Love this!

Dior paired their blue top coat with a classic pink nail polish. Of course it looks fabulous! Since I like to play with Dior’s seasonal top coats, I decided to try it on other spring nail polishes. I found it looks good on cool colors in the blue and pink family. It did not play well with nail polish in the orange, red or brown family. So, I photographed the best alternative to pink, was mint green! Love!

You can see in the photos, the blue top coat over the mint green nail polish from Chanel’s spring nail polish collection. My photos do not do the blue top coat justice. It looks really cool in person. It’s an understated addition to the nail polish which not only does your standard top coat job of making the manicure stronger, it adds a slightly blue sheen to the look. I am here for it!

So, if you want to level up your pink or green manicure this spring season, I recommend adding this sheer blue top coat to your nail polish collection. It is also a way to update your nail polish from another season and create multiple fresh looks instead of buying a bunch of new bottles this season.

What do you think of a sheer, blue top coat this spring season?

Thanks for stopping by!
