Cold weather is almost gone and the season of green is near. Sage green, specifically, is a new color making waves with nail-fanatics. With fashion trends like “Barbiecore” becoming popularized, it’s easy to see why this muted, pastel color would drift into the world of cosmetology. For Black women, green is an easy choice to accentuate their skin color.

Take your sage nail up a notch with mint-green glitter. Nothing screams springtime with “winterfresh” embellished nails. The pink, neutral base adds a touch of duality to the dipped french tip look.

These fairytale inspired nails look refreshing but sassy. The iridescent butterfly wings compliments the nude base color. The sculpted flowers next to the sage green tips accessorize the entire look. Short nails would look perfect for this playful look.
