Save Pin

Florals always seem fresh and that’s even truer when they’re on your hands. But if you think daisies are boring or floral nails are only for spring, it’s time to give your mind a fresh update. This summer is bringing us a fresh reason to appreciate petals, stems and colors that shine under the sun. The designs are more striking, simple and soft-looking all together. Do you think floral nails are boring after all the designs you’ve tried? Trust me, you haven’t.

In this article, we’re exploring 25 Flower Nails for Summer 2025 Glow, with options that are either softly pretty or bold and flowery. Ready to meet your next nail crush? Scroll down and take notes (or screenshots, we don’t judge).

Earthy Romance in Matte Olive

This design is a quiet masterpiece. A combination of deep matte olive and sheer nude with white blossom details results in an almond shape that is both solid and modern. It’s the definition of modern romance—earthy but elevated. The spaces left by the flower art let your nails rest, so the look isn’t too overpowering for summer. Plus, that muted green? Exactly the right choice for people who like their warm-weather florals to be dark and natural.

When I want to make this look, I start with Olive & June’s “WKF” as my base green because it’s rich and creamy. I use a micro detail brush and OPI’s “Funny Bunny” for the petals and Essie’s “Canopy Coaster” gives the perfect color to the foliage. Seal your nails with a matte top coat for a really soft finish.

If you’re DIY-ing this at home, start with shaping your nails into an almond silhouette. Apply your nude base and cure. After that, use olive on every other finger. With your brush, add little branches and blossoms to your nails after they have dried. Don’t worry about being too precise—that organic feel is what makes it charming. Seal with matte topcoat, and you’re golden.

I went to a garden picnic last June wearing this design and four people I didn’t know stopped me to ask about my nails. It’s that kind of vibe—soft enough to go unnoticed, but once it’s noticed, unforgettable. I think it’s a great choice for Flower Nails for Summer 2025 Glow because it’s both pretty and has a hint of story behind it.

Daisy Dreams and Foil Sparkle

This look takes cute to a whole new level. Soft pink nails are topped with daisies painted by hand and a touch of gold foil. Daisies have a way of making you happy and in this short, square design, they don’t take over the look. With a clear base, your nails really stand out and the foil highlights add some sparkle when you’re out in the sun.

Flower Nails for Summer 2025 Glow Daisy Dreams and Foil Sparkle
I normally use Le Mini Macaron’s “Rose Crème” gel polish and add either a daisy art sticker set or create flowers with a super fine brush and white gel. The foil bits? You can purchase gold transfer foil sheets from both Amazon and Sally Beauty.

At home, you should start by painting all nails a solid pink. Cure the art and then use a small brush or decals to add the daisy art. Put foil glue wherever you want the sparkle, press the foil on gently and finish by coating it all with a clear gel top coat. It’s simpler than you might think and it’s actually enjoyable for a summer weekend.

What I love most about this design is that it mixes simplicity with luxury. You can enjoy it at bridal showers, brunch on your rooftop or just relax on your balcony with a cold drink and look at Pinterest. The feeling of this collection is chilled out, floral and glowing and it’s perfect for Summer 2025.

Bold Petal Glam in Gold and Rose

This product is for you if you want a bit of luxury in your hands. The floral design is updated with a matte pink base and sparkling gold line art flowers. These nails which are shaped like almonds, are so long they could fit right in at the Met Gala or a fancy garden party. The small details give the design a shiny finish, but not in a way that’s overly glamorous.

Flower Nails for Summer 2025 Glow Bold Petal Glam in Gold and Rose
If you want to recreate the look, go for a polish like Zoya’s “Marlowe” for the matte pink, and use metallic nail foil pens (like the ones from Beetles) to trace out your petals and swirls. Matte topcoats by Kiara Sky or CND will hold the velvety look of your manicure.

If you get impatient easily, let a professional handle this job—it’s very precise work. If you’d like to make this at home, use fine-tip metallic pens to stencil your floral lines. After you’ve got the basics, you’ll find that the process is more relaxing than stressful.

It feels to me like I’m putting jewelry on my nails. It’s extra, yes—but tastefully so. A little rebellious, a little regal. One of the most praised flower nails I did for Summer 2025 glow looks last season.

Island Bloom in Hibiscus Tones

A blue and pink look with tropical flowers is a perfect way to celebrate vacation. The combination of sky blue and bubblegum pink includes just one accent nail covered in a bright hibiscus flower. It’s full of bold designs, vibrant colors and suggests you need sunscreen and some fun music for the pool. If you prefer a fruity drink with a flower on the side, you’ll love this cocktail.

Flower Nails for Summer 2025 Glow Island Bloom in Hibiscus Tones
Try “Strike A Rose” and “Blue-La-La” for shades and for the tropical flower, try… A set of hibiscus nail decals will make your life so much easier (trust me on this). Don’t forget the high-gloss topcoat—it will make your nails look amazing.

Steps are fairly easy. Paint one nail pink, one nail blue and then add the floral decal to the nail that’s left white. Applying a gel topcoat will protect your nails from pool water. If you’re headed to an actual island (or just a backyard barbecue), this mani is surprisingly durable.

It’s like wearing a beach cover-up and a floral Instagram filter—and I enjoy how it adds color without getting too busy. If you’re feeling the heat in the city, this design makes you feel like you’re somewhere else. That’s what summer nails should do, right?

Sunshine & Watercolor Florals

This set radiates happiness. A bright, canary yellow is paired with a watercolor floral on one nail, looking like a sweet little surprise. The square tips make the look clean and new and the flower nail adds a touch of sweetness. It’s giving cottagecore in Capri. An outdoor art market stroll is lovely on Sunday, but you can also wear it to brighten your day anytime.

Flower Nails for Summer 2025 Glow Sunshine & Watercolor Florals
Yellow Mellow from DND is a bold base that doesn’t look too bright or harsh. You may choose to draw the floral design yourself with a brush and soft pastel gel paints or instead use a single sticker that looks like watercolor.

If you’re okay with painting just one nail, you can quickly try this look at home. This manicure looks amazing thanks to the one pop of floral. Add a shiny top coat to keep the yellow from dulling in the sun (especially important for beach days).

I decided to wear something similar on my trip to Palm Springs last July and my nails looked amazing in every photo. If you like design that’s easy to care for and looks great, this is the trend for you in Summer 2025.

Porcelain Petals in Baby Blue

There’s something about this style that seems extra sweet—it makes me think of old china in the best way. A smooth nude base supports colorful 3D blue flowers which are highlighted by gold flakes and gems. Because of its soft round short shape, the look is both fancy and easy to wear. It’s a feminine color, but not too sweet and the mix of depth and transparency makes it perfect for Summer 2025 nights.

Flower Nails for Summer 2025 Glow Porcelain Petals in Baby Blue
I normally begin this style by applying CND’s “Be Demure” as a sheer pink base. After that, you’ll need a thick gel like Vetro’s 3D Art Gel in white and periwinkle to make the dimensional petals. To add a bit of gold, I prefer using flatback crystals from Swarovski or small gold caviar beads from Born Pretty. Apply foil flakes to the eyes to add a random, rich sparkle underneath.

It’s not simple to do this look yourself, but with a dotting tool and some time, you can start with the basic flower shapes and add extra gel petals to finish it off. If you haven’t done 3D nail art before, this style is easy to try since the florals can be a little off-center and still look nice.

Actually, I tried it out one weekend when I was inside because of the storm and wanted to feel better. It worked. Seeing my nails always made me feel like I had a bit of summer in my hands—elegant, soft and quietly bright. Total aesthetic win.

Graphic Tropics in Blue and Tangerine

This is for the strong women who love their florals to stand out and their colors to be even more noticeable. The background is a strong blue and on top are vivid orange and black florals, with space left empty in between. The result? A colorful collection that looks like it was inspired by pop art. I love how the mix of colors and oval shapes makes it seem fresh and current—one of the most enjoyable designs in this Summer 2025 collection.

Flower Nails for Summer 2025 Glow Graphic Tropics in Blue and Tangerine
You’ll want a bold turquoise such as OPI’s “Tile Art to Warm Your Heart” and a fiery orange called “Morrocan Flame” from Lights Lacquer to get this look. Outline the flowers with a fine brush and black and white gel liner.

Alternate between your bold base colors and make sure they are dry before you continue. If you don’t like drawing by hand, use a detail brush or stamping plates instead. Add the floral elements one layer at a time, drying each layer so that it doesn’t smudge. Seal with a high-gloss topcoat to enhance the contrast.

At a rooftop day party last July, I wore this and three people asked me where I got my press-ons. (Spoiler: they weren’t press-ons.) This look is a conversation starter. If you’re willing to go all out this season, you’ll love this look.

Sunset Splash with Petal Power

This design brings the heat. Each nail shows a mix of orange and flamingo pink in swirls of colorful floral patterns. You can’t miss the 70s feel that is part of the design. To me, it’s like a summer disco party on your nails—full of fun, energy and a bit of disorder. If your vibe is more “main character in a summer romcom” than minimalist muse, this is your move.

Flower Nails for Summer 2025 Glow Sunset Splash with Petal Power
I think ORLY’s “Tangerine Dream” and “Butterfly Blush” make excellent base colors. After that, use a thin brush and neon gel paints to apply petal shapes over the canvas. You can use small gold or yellow dot studs to represent the center of your flowers.

It’s easiest to begin by cutting the nail into halves or quarters and working on one flower at a time. Put a center dot on the flower and then draw the petals around it. If you’re using gel paints, flash cure between layers to avoid smudges. It’s also an excellent choice for short acrylic nails if you like a neat and orderly base.

The outfit worked with everything I wore when I did it for a trip to Miami. What makes a vibrant floral special is that it breaks the rules and brings only joy.

Lavender Vines for Dreamy Evenings

These nails are as if I’m strolling through a summer garden at dusk. The color of lavender softens into nude, with black vine details and purple leaves added on top. It’s a fun, colorful way to dress that is also soothing. Thanks to the square shape and subtle shine, it looks stylish instead of sweet. It’s perfect for a night out on the roof or for ending the workday with drinks.

Flower Nails for Summer 2025 Glow Lavender Vines for Dreamy Evenings
Make sure you have a light purple like “Lilacism” from Essie and a dark purple like “Bold Berry” from Bio Seaweed Gel. To draw the vines, you’ll need a thin detail brush and a nail art pen in black and applying a glossy top coat finishes everything nicely.

Put the lavender polish halfway up your nail and move the sponge down to blend it smoothly. After they’re dry, outline the vines on the tips and curve them gently to make them flow. Draw purple petals or dots beside the vines to look like little buds.

I use this manicure when I’m looking for a romantic, but not over-the-top, style. It’s more of a quiet sound than a loud one and that’s just what you might be looking for in Summer 2025.

Daisy Chain in Citrus Green

White daisies are making a big comeback and this design shows that off. The petals stand out brilliantly against the lime green background they are painted on. It’s bright, fresh, and unapologetically optimistic. Besides, the clean, square tips give the whole thing a modern and polished look. If you want a cheerful floral arrangement that’s perfect for the farmers’ market and a summer party, this one is for you.

Flower Nails for Summer 2025 Glow Daisy Chain in Citrus Green
Choose Sally Hansen’s “Lime Lights” as your green and use a white nail art pen or brush to make the petals. Using a dotting tool and “Daisy Know My Name?” from China Glaze will finish the look of the flowers. A gloss topcoat helps the color stand out even better.

Put your base shade on each nail and let it dry fully. After that, use a dotting tool to make the center of each flower and add white polish to draw the petals. If your daisies aren’t exactly the same, it makes them look more endearing.

Putting this design on made me feel as if I had sunshine with me all day. If you prefer simple, cheerful outfits with a little edge, it’s a great everyday floral for you. Total serotonin boost in nail form.

Soft Lilac Blooms on Nude Canvas

This floral design whispers elegance. A nude base is topped with lilac flowers that are drawn by hand and curl on the edges of the nails. Adding lavender paint to every other nail adds a little more interest to the design. And that delicate almond shape? It gives you the right amount of length so your hands appear graceful without trying. Think of eating outside in the summer, buying flowers at night or having something sweet after the week’s stress.

Flower Nails for Summer 2025 Glow Soft Lilac Blooms on Nude Canvas
I put on “Mum’s the Word” by Butter London for the base color and mix in a little Bio Seaweed “First Love” gel. To do fine florals, you need to use small detail brushes and a highly pigmented gel paint in lavender and violet. A shiny topcoat will give the petals the look of being painted on porcelain.

This design is best done layer by layer. Begin with the base and cure. After that, use a fine liner brush to outline the petals from the edge and make them narrower as you go. Add a little bit of a darker purple to the petals to bring them to life. You’ll be amazed at how impressive your hair looks after doing this style—even if it’s not perfect, it looks like a salon style.

I took this piece with me on a weekend to the countryside and kept looking at my hands as I sipped my coffee outside. These nails are calm. They’re grounded. They’re the floral therapy we all deserve right now.

Coral Leaves for Everyday Summer

It’s a simple piece that fits right into the summer wardrobe. Soft square coral nails are decorated with white leafy patterns that move across them. It’s minimalist, but never boring. Because the matte finish mutes the brightness, you can wear it anywhere, whether you’re at work or at the beach.

Flower Nails for Summer 2025 Glow Coral Leaves for Everyday Summer
I like to use Essie’s “Tart Deco” or “Strike a Rose” to get this look. A gel art pen or striping brush is necessary for the white leaves. Lock everything in place and give your nails that special velvety look by using a matte topcoat.

You don’t have to be an expert to make this design yourself. Paint two layers of coral on your nails, let them dry and then use a white liner brush to draw the vines from the corner, as if they’re coming up from your cuticle. If you’re new to freehand art, this is a great one to start with because the leaves don’t have to be perfectly symmetrical.

It’s the look I choose when I want something to go with everything. It doesn’t try to draw too much attention, but when people notice, they always smile which is the feeling I’m aiming for in Summer 2025.

Butter Yellow Feathers and Gold Lines

Certain nail designs look like they’d fit perfectly in a magazine and this is one of them. The pale yellow nails are decorated with transparent tips which highlight white feather strokes and fine gold lines created by hand. The almond shape adds length to the fingers and the delicate lines make it look luxurious in a quiet way. It’s light, it’s feminine, and it’s giving “sunshine on silk.”

Flower Nails for Summer 2025 Glow Butter Yellow Feathers and Gold Lines
“Lemonade” from DND makes a great creamy yellow base and you can use any art you like. Applying white art gel to the feathers and metallic liner for the golden lines is my recommendation. You can use striping tape to produce very thin gold lines without having to press hard with your brush.

This one takes some patience. The first step is to paint your nails yellow and then leave your accent nails unpainted or do a sheer pink on them. First, apply the feathers using a striping brush and then finish with the gold. All the layers in your hair will shine best when you use a glossy topcoat.

I put on something similar to this last year on my birthday and felt like I was radiating. It’s one of those designs that looks expensive without feeling like you’re trying too hard—effortless elegance for Summer 2025.

Sun Garden in Yellow Lupine

They look like the summer fields are in full bloom. The base is made up of buttercup yellow and soft peach pink and delicate yellow lupine flowers are added to two accent nails. Green elements help make the whole room harmonious and natural. The result? Pure floral joy. It’s like picking wildflowers at the best time of day for a manicure.

Flower Nails for Summer 2025 Glow Sun Garden in Yellow Lupine
I reach for Cirque Colors “Hustle” when I want a creamy yellow and I like to use Essie’s “She’s Pampered” for a soft coral-pink. Stamping plates can be used for floral detailing or you can draw them with detail brushes and gel paint in goldenrod and forest green.

Begin with alternating base colors. After that, trace the flower stems in green and place dots of yellow on top of them, beginning at the cuticle and going upwards. You should add each flower element one by one and cure with a flash between them if you’re using gel.

I love to wear this at festivals or whenever I want to feel like I’m in the meadow. Floral designs can be quietly powerful and this one makes you feel like you’re holding nature in your hands.

Classic Blue Blossoms on Blush

It’s great that this design is both classic and modern at the same time. The sheer blush background is decorated with lovely blue and white florals. Just like petals, each nail is placed in a special and unique position. Its almond shape makes the look softer and more feminine. It’s classic, it’s soft, but those cool tones also keep it fresh for Summer 2025 Glow.

Flower Nails for Summer 2025 Glow Classic Blue Blossoms on Blush
To replicate it, I usually go with OPI’s “Bubble Bath” for the base, then layer the blossoms with a dotting tool and white + navy gel polish (try Beetles or Apres ArtInks). A brush with a fine tip helps paint the petals and a glossy finish brings the whole design to attention.

You don’t need to be an expert—just move the flowers and their size around to avoid your nails all looking the same. Just a small amount of nail polish is enough for this look.

It makes me think of the nails you might wear to a summer engagement party or your friend’s backyard wedding. It’s elegant, but playful. Soft, but not shy. The exact energy we want this season.

Bright Coral Botanica with a Retro Twist

There’s something about this deep coral-orange floral moment that instantly makes me think of warm breezes and iced drinks at golden hour. A little 70s style is added to your nails by mixing terracotta, cinnamon and creamy white shades. I’m choosing to call this a confident nod to flower power, but this time it’s styled in a way that feels new for Summer 2025. The rounded, almond shape helps balance the bold colors, so the set can be used anywhere.

Flower Nails for Summer 2025 Glow+Bright Coral Botanica with a Retro Twist
I can’t help but think of OPI’s “My Italian is a Little Rusty” and Essie’s “Tangerine Tease” on top of Zoya’s “Spencer” when I see these shades. A striping brush is necessary for the flower petals and the Beetles’ nail art brush set is great for getting those details right.

When making this look at home, leave the base color neutral on every other nail and let the color on the other nails tell the story. Dab your flower centers on with a dotting tool and use a fine nail art brush to spread out the petals. Layering matte and shiny colors in floral nails is recommended by Julie Kandalec to get the bright, 3D effect that stands out in the sun.

I’d choose this for a weekend picnic or with gold rings at a beach brunch. It’s not flashy, but it stands out and that’s what makes it special.

Cherry Poppy Vibes on Poolside Blue

If you’re looking for a playful and fun summer look, check this out. This bright blue base covered in big red poppies is sure to catch your eye and remind you of sunshine and confidence. There’s a retro postcard meets pop art feel to this outfit and I absolutely love it. Because it’s so cheerful, cute and easy to do on short nails, you can wear it every day.

Flower Nails for Summer 2025 Glow+Cherry Poppy Vibes on Poolside Blue
If you want to replicate the colors, use Essie’s “Butler Please” or Sally Hansen’s Insta-Dri in “Set Sail” for the sky part of the design. The poppies? I would use ORLY’s “Love My Nails” or a red from Olive & June if I had steady hands and a fine brush.

Start by laying down your base. Once everything is dry, use either a nail dotting tool or a bobby pin to dot five red spots on each flower, leaving the middle empty. Apply a small amount of black or white paint to the middle and seal everything with a top coat of high-gloss. It’s not hard at all once you have the right tools and can make great Reels.

It’s like those old-fashioned beach towels and parasols—bright, bold and all about summer. I’d wear this with a red bikini and some big sunglasses.

Sunset Lavender Meadow

This look uses lilac, peach and pastel green to create a lovely mini floral scene. The shape is feminine, but not too fancy and the tips are both square and rounded just enough to be modern and light. The petals look as if they were handpicked and every flower brings a strong summer meadow vibe. What I love most? The pale pink, the soft lavender and how they combine on your skin like a sunset.

Flower Nails for Summer 2025 Glow+Sunset Lavender Meadow
These colors look best with soft pastels—use Butter London’s “Mum’s the Word” for pink and Zoya’s “Vee” or Essie’s “Lilacism” for the flowers. It’s best to use a fine brush for the leaves and a dotting tool for the yellow pollen.

No lie, this takes a steady hand. But as celebrity nail artist Betina Goldstein often says: “Floral art isn’t about perfection—it’s about placement and layering.” Work gently, add the petals a little at a time and remember to use a matte topcoat for a watercolor effect.

I wore a similar outfit to a garden party last year and people I didn’t know were asking me where I had them done. Did you know, this design can work just as well on acrylic sets?

Electric Tangerine Daisies

This almond nail set is both vivid, sharp and perfect for hot weather. That bright tangerine color with striking white daisies looks like it fits somewhere between a pool party and a desert music festival. I love the confidence this set throws off. If you’re not sure about wearing bright colors, this one could change your mind.

Flower Nails for Summer 2025 Glow+Electric Tangerine Daisies
To nail that bold orange (pun intended), look into Lights Lacquer “Slice of Life” or ILNP’s “Tangerine Dream.” The best way to wear daisies is with a bright white like OPI’s “Alpine Snow” and a great base/top duo to keep them shining for days.

It’s easiest to start with the orange base and then add the daisy petals using either a brush or sticker guides. The trick is spacing—don’t overcrowd. Put a yellow center and draw black lines for a stronger look.

This isn’t your grandma’s daisy set. It’s energetic, sharp, and unapologetic. On a bachelorette trip in Palm Springs, I wore something similar and it definitely got some attention.

3D Summer Field Florals

With its movement and joy, this 3D floral look is colorful, textured and stands out right from the nail. All the flowers are shaped and vivid, whether they are white, yellow or magenta. The scent makes it feel like you just came out of a field of wildflowower barefoot. It looks like a luxury piece, but it’s also very cute.

Flower Nails for Summer 2025 Glow+3D Summer Field Florals
You’ll need a nude or beige gel base to make this manicure. After that, use sculpting gel or builder gel to create each flower. The colors? Try out the primary shades “Lavender,” “Coconut Yogurt,” and “Soleil” from Le Mini Macaron.

Creating 3D florals takes patience. Squeeze a bit of gel onto your nails, shape each petal with a silicone tool or brush and then cure them. It’s a bit more advanced, but worth it. According to nail pro Tom Bachik, this nail trend will be very popular for Summer 2025, especially at weddings and festivals.

For me, this set is like having a bouquet on your fingertips—it’s both elegant and a little unpredictable. I’d only wear it for special occasions in summer such as an anniversary or a picnic dinner with friends.

Watercolor Petals on Crisp White

Floral watercolors are the big trend this season for good reason. These lush hibiscus-style flowers come in punchy pink and tangerine which bloom over a clean, breezy and contrasting white base. Almond shapes are easy to wear, but the colors add all the summer warmth. It looks like the air in a tropical country, a linen dress and a new coral lip color.

Flower Nails for Summer 2025 Glow+Watercolor Petals on Crisp White
A milky white base such as Essie’s “Blanc,” is followed by gel-paint flowers in hot pink from Gelish and orange from Bio Seaweed Gel. You can use a flat oval brush and sheer blending gel to make the edges of your makeup look painted on.

Apply two layers of your white base, then cure. After that, paint the petal shapes using semi-sheer gel polish and use acetone on a clean brush to lightly blur the edges. Make the last details 3D by adding yellow dots or fine green leaves.

For me, this design always gives “vacation nails” energy. I chose something similar for a weekend in Tulum and people were complimenting me almost as much as I had margaritas.

Neon Pop 3D Blossoms

It’s so bright, bouncy and easy to like that this manicure is a dopamine rush. Neon blue, coral, yellow and pink 3D flowers are packed into each nail and a jelly base leaves your real nail visible. It’s both playful and edgy, the kind of thing you wear when you’re ready to be a little extra (and love every second of it).

Flower Nails for Summer 2025 Glow+Neon Pop 3D Blossoms
You’ll want a builder base (try Aprés’ Gel-X Extend Gel) and a full neon gel polish set like Modelones’ Bright Summer Collection. If you’re in a rush, use floral nail charms, but dotting tools will give you the best look.

Begin with buffing and preparing your nail and then use a nude base coat. Once it’s cured, use a dotting tool to place petals on your canvas with the neon colors. Place each flower on a cake and cure it, then either brush gloss on top or allow the flowers to maintain their height for texture. Brittney Boyce, a nail artist, often tells DIYers that mixing neon and texture is sure to lift anyone’s mood.

At a Pride weekend block party, I once made these and they really did shine under the setting sun. It’s similar to friendship bracelets, but instead of your wrist, it’s on your hands.

Daisy Dreams and Sky Blues

If daisies walked the runway, this would be their time to shine. A blue color is used with daisy petals in bright white and sunshine yellow, each in the right spot to give the design a breezy effect. The mixture of bright nails and translucent accents gives the manicure a refined look, so it doesn’t look too plain. It feels like I’m sipping cloudy lemonade, wearing a straw hat and walking with nowhere to go.

Flower Nails for Summer 2025 Glow+Daisy Dreams and Sky Blues
If you’re looking for the base color, I suggest using “You Do Blue” from Essie or “Blueberry Milk” from Lights Lacquer. Place some daisy petals on the nails using “Alpine Snow,” and put in some yellow dots with a detail brush. You may also want to try a matte top coat to make your nails extra soft.

First, paint some nails in blue and leave the others bare, just with a base gel. Draw out the petals by using a detail brush and start from the middle, going outward. Overlap the petals a little to give the flower a natural daisy look.

They look like the daisy chains I used to make when I was little. The style feels very pure and familiar, but now it’s been updated with new colors, so it’s still modern.

Matte Pink Blossoms with Retro Flair

This set is bold in its simplicity. The room is brightened by matte pink and soft white flowers with green leaves give it a vintage feel. It’s Barbie in a floral style, but with a hint of sophistication. The long rounded shape makes the nails feel elegant and wearable—like you’re sipping spritzers in a rooftop garden.

Flower Nails for Summer 2025 Glow+Matte Pink Blossoms with Retro Flair
I find that Zoya’s “Joey” and Orosa’s “Play” make great matte bases. Paint the blossoms using a thin brush and white gel polish and then add a tiny black dot in the middle. Finish your nails with a velvet matte top coat and we recommend Kiara Sky’s.

Paint two layers of pink, cure them and then use a fine brush to draw your floral designs. Cluster them randomly for a wildflower field vibe. Add leaves using olive or emerald green polish. It’s important to let the polish dry before adding the matte top layer.

I did her makeup this way for her bridal shower and it looked both fun and neat. If you want something simple that’s not dull, this is the place for you.

Classic Daisy Revival on Square Tips

Daisy nail art is making a big return, mainly on square nails. It’s a soft, sheer and romantic take, with big flowers covering a shiny nude background. It’s timeless, but not safe. This look always looks new, whether you’re going out for breakfast or to a wedding by the lake. Having crisp white, buttery yellow and long tips all together is super trendy.

Flower Nails for Summer 2025 Glow+Classic Daisy Revival on Square Tips
The best way to get the bloom you’re looking for is to use a sheer pink base such as “Bubble Bath” from OPI or “Soft Nude” from DND. After that, paint large petals in white and tap the center with a bright yellow. Acrylic sets can hold this design well without lifting.

Carve your tips into squares with the builder gel or acrylic that feels right for you. Application of the base should be followed by using a fine brush for the petals, letting a few run off the edge for a more natural effect. Celeb nail expert Nail By Mel says that big floral designs are seen as luxurious because they are meant to look a little messy.

I wore this look to my cousin’s outdoor ceremony and it went with every outfit I changed into that weekend. It’s easy to style, looks great and really reflects the Summer 2025 trend.
And that’s all you need—25 bright nail ideas to give you color, confidence and style for every Summer 2025 occasion. Every Summer 2025 glow nail set we’ve featured has its own take on flower nails, from soft lavender to bright blue and orange tropicals.

I’ve always thought that nails are more about art than just the polish we put on them. They’re used to mark celebrations, make Tuesdays more enjoyable or give us a little boost without talking. Because of these cute, easy and sometimes over-the-top designs, you’re ready for any mood this summer brings.

If you’re looking for a change, try black or dark red nails, opt for French tips with a twist or stick to the classic daisies on short square nails. If you paint your own nails or hire a manicurist, let them share your personality. If your story has sunshine, flowers and a gentle breeze? Even better.
