Not ready to go full neon?
This nude option focuses the bright color solely to one edge of each nail.

We’re here for it.
The way the tips are painted creates a faux stiletto shape on a truecoffin nail.
We love this neon take that’s both simple and eye-catching.

These bright, highlighter-yellow nails made us do double-take.
We love the sharp lines and crisp negative-space utility.
Byrdie Tip
Swap your regular polish brush for an ultra-thin paint brush to recreate the clean lines.

Neon Skittles
Another way to get in on neon nails is through the skittle manicure trend.
Best of all, they’re easy to DIY.
Simply start with a neon yellow base and finish with charcoal squiggles.

Soft Lime
Neon and negative space make a powerful combo.
This particular example is super easy to recreate, toojust use striping tape.
Matte Neon Moment
Can’t choose a single neon shade to showcase on your fingers?

With this idea, you’re free to paint one hand one color and the other another.
(Or, mix and match on the same hand.)
The matte finish really takes the whole look up a notch.

Finish with a matte topcoat.

Moody Manicure

These moody almond-shaped nails are the definition of fun.
With neon yellow and checkerboard accents, it’s simply one of a kind.
To create each layer of color, use French manicure stickers as stencils.

It’s also a pretty color palette to copy for warmer weather.
We love the sliver of negative space between the two shades.
Neon Dots
This manicure proves that neon nails don’t have to be complicated.

Simply paint a couple of neon dots on each nail,et voila.
Neon With a Chance of Clouds

How pretty are these cloudy ombre nails?
The hot pink to electric blue fade is super dreamy.

If you’re worried about DIY-ing stars, consider adhering star confetti to your tips in their place.
Eye-Catching Check
Who knew checker-print nails could look so fun?
We love how the turquoise and yellow checks are juxtaposed against a hot pink mani.
@hellobirdielab/ Instagram
We’re obsessed with the contrast of the Barbie pink against this model’s perfectly accessorized hands.
It’s nostalgically ’90s, and we can’t help but smile every time we scroll past it.
But this dainty daisy artwork definitely sweetens the deal.
