Happy Thursday! Today I am sharing with you some of the hottest summer nail color trends for 2020! Hey, just because we are at home way more doesn’t mean our nails shouldn’t look summer-ready! In fact, my nails haven’t looked this good in a while! My number one secret to having perfect nails is to start with a nail growth base coat. I’ve used this for YEARS and will never ever go without it! I then follow with the nail color of my choice (currently a pale pink) and top it off with the same nail growth polish. Viola! Perfect nails all year round!

For summer nails I think it’s easy to automatically think of neon and ultra-vibrant shades (there are some on this list) but I think some other top summer nail colors for 2020 will surprise you. Like the first option on this list, a dusty blue! So get your sunkissed skin ready (or check out some of the best self-tanners!) and take a look at these top summer nail colors for 2020!
Dusty Blues
This slate blue hue is a major nail color trend for this summer. Short on time? Give this Essie quick dry collection a try! “Quick-dry your hands in the air like you just don’t care!”
Orange Shimmer
Subtle shimmer that makes a big statement. Like a perfect summer sunset, this orange shade is as warm as your golden skin!
Barely There Pink
This barely-there pink is more of a white with very very pale hints of pink (aka, barely-there pink) Wear it alone for a clean, well-groomed look or with white tips for a natural French manicure.
Soft Mint
An adorable yet sassy shade of soft mint that you can love all-year-round! “Don’t be fooled by its sweet exterior, this apple bites back!”
Just Peachy
The perfect pink shade to pair with your summer sun-kissed skin! There is always something super mood-brightening about a peachy nail color. “Stick a pretty little cocktail umbrella on some cracked ice and you have this stunningly peachy shade!”
Soft Yellow
A pale yellow nail color is a perfect complement to your glowing summer skin. A soft yellow is a fun summer color without being too in your face. “Compliments will be buzzing to this soft buttery yellow!”
Bright Whites
White nails are always a good idea, no matter the season. Treat your summer nails with a little more love and nourishment by using this argan oil-infused polish.
Palest Lavender
The artist is you! Nail polish is a fun way to express yourself, and this shade is a perfect way to keep your nails neutral with a hint of color. This palest of pale lavender is a white base with a soft touch of lavender. Such a relaxing color for the summer!
Metallic Rose
Make a bold and eye-catching statement with metallic nail polish this summer. Opt for pink hues like this rose shade, or go for a lighter shade with more shimmer like Lauren.
Cool Blues
A pastel sea blue that makes you dream of clear skies and ocean views. With an ultra-nourishing and hydrating formula, your nails will be smooth and sexy all summer long!
Creamy Coral
Another pinky shade, because you can never go wrong with a warm and glowing pink for summer. “A yummy gel nail polish mélange of spice and creamy peach”
Red Hot
Is it really summer without a red hot nail? With the perfect name, this polish will have you feeling flirty and confident. “Gorgeous. striking. untamed. the pulsing beat of this longwear, fierce scarlet red creates instant fashion.”
Metallic Gold
Wear alone or on top of your favorite summer shade for a delicate and soft gold shimmer!
