Your dose of vitamin D
July is when sunshine takes centre stage. We've captured all that solar energy in a vibrant palette of summer shades, available in Green™ or Green Flash™ polish—perfect for sipping a cool cocktail with your toes in the water!
Solar: sun-kissed fingertips
As seen on the Spring-Summer 2025 runway at Ralph Lauren, a stunning, luminous white takes the spotlight. Just like Solar, our pearly white polish flecked with golden shimmer—think sunshine dancing on skin. More than just a white, it brings a hint of glamour and flatters sun-kissed skin for a radiant glow. We love it on every skin tone. Pair it with breezy white or beige linen for that “Riviera chic” look—and why not match your pedi to keep the glow going from head to toe?
Neon Pink: summer’s bold statement
Neons are making a comeback! Neon Pink is a vibrant neon pink with blue undertones—this summer’s ultimate shade for a fun, fearless look. It nods to the playful sportswear seen at Shiatzy Chen. On lighter skin, it pops; on deeper tones, it stuns. It’s the go-to party polish of the season. Want a fail-safe combo? Pair it with crisp whites, casual denim, and a glowy makeup look.
Lava: made for summer nights
Things are heating up! Meet Lava, a fiery orange-red polish that turns heads—also spotted at Carolina Herrera. This intense shade evokes the golden glow of long, lazy evenings. With its bold red undertone, Lava warms up every skin tone. It’s stunning on both short, dynamic nails and long, tapered ones. Pair it with gold jewellery, a flowing dress, a pastel bag... and a refreshing mocktail in hand.
Keep it simple
In summer, elegance often lies in simplicity. Spotlight on pastel shades and soft neutrals that feel as airy as they are refined.
Lilas: summer in a haze
One of this season’s standout shades, this almost dreamlike pastel blue made waves on the Coperni runway. Lilas is a soft and summery blue reminiscent of wildflowers and early morning skies. A dream on fair skin and a stunning contrast on deeper tones. Pair it with mint green or baby pink—this is the pastel moment to watch. Style it with white, light grey or denim for a crisp, modern finish.
Pale Rose: romantic minimalism
At Akris, minimalism meets romance. Pale Rose captures this perfectly with its soft pink polish infused with beige—the perfect shade for soap nails and a pristine finish. This ultra-chic nude flatters all skin tones by blending beautifully with natural undertones. Gorgeous on short or long nails, it adds a whisper of elegance. Pair with an oversized linen shirt and nude or pastel accessories for that signature effortless chic. Beauty tip: just add a touch of cream bronzer and you’re good to go.
Bois de Rose: natural sophistication
Bois de Rose brings timeless elegance to life. Also seen on the Elie Saab runway, this wood-rose polish is deeper than Pale Rose—ideal for those wanting a slightly bolder nude with added glamour. It’s a dream on oval or almond-shaped nails for a refined, classic look. Match with natural fabrics and earthy tones like camel, terracotta or sand for an ultra-elevated finish.
Let’s drink and refresh!
When the heat rises, nothing beats fresh colors to cool things down. It’s time for nail shades that feel as refreshing as they look. Indulge in these juicy hues all summer long.
Pistachio: matcha moment
Pistachio green is the star of matcha nails! A key shade at Ermanno Scervino, it mirrors Pistachio, a soft pastel green that brings a breezy, natural vibe to high summer. Perfect for short nails and that fresh, healthy finish—also very fashion-forward on long nails. Style it with white jeans, a flowing cream shirt and a straw bag for an easy chic look. Want to push it further? Try a pastel-on-pastel outfit with a water-green dress for a very “gelato color” moment.
Lemonade: a fizzy burst of energy
Craving a chilled lemonade? Lemonade is your new go-to summer shade. This bright, cheerful yellow, seen on the Anteprima runway, rides the butter nails trend with flair. It flatters fair tones, glows on medium skin and pops beautifully on deeper complexions. Pair it with crisp white or tropical prints. For a full-on summer vibe, team it with white sandals and glossy lips—yes, please!
Lisa Lilas: Ube latte vibes
Boredom out, Ube latte in. Lisa Lilas taps into this Instagram-favourite drink trend with its signature shade.
Expect a creamy, pastel mauve—less babyish than lavender, more wearable and totally addictive. One of the most viral hues right now, spotted at Emporio Armani, it’s stunning on mid-length almond or squoval nails. Pair with sky blue, mint, or soft grey for a dreamy color story. Or go bold with lilac-orange or lilac-candy pink combos straight off the runways.
No need to pack your bags this summer—your nails are taking you places. From misty lilacs to zesty lemon, it’s a color journey worth taking. Let your instincts guide you and pick the polish shades that will color your best summer moments.
