Blue Skies Ahead
@overglowedit
We love how cheerful this daisy nail design is. With bright pops of yellow and baby blue, it brings images of beautiful, clear-sky days to mind. To recreate the look, youll need three polishes from the Essie Word On The Street Nail Polish Collection ($10 each)—specifically the shades Word on the Street, Outside the Lines, and Unapologetic Icon. Start your nail look by painting on your solid nails (pinkies and thumbs). Then, use a sheer milky nude to create the base of your accent nails. Once your base is dry, use the Orly Half Moon Guides ($5) to perfect your French tips. Next up: daisy nail designs. While they look professional, you can DIY the look with a dotting tool and a steady hand. Dont forget the top coat to seal the look in.

Pretty in Pink
@disseynails
Pink is one of the years most popular colors, thanks in large part to the Barbie movie, which premieres in July. For this mani, you can use any pink and white polishes that youd like. But we especially love the pink rhinestone details, which are the Cirque Colors Rainbow Fish Rhinestones found in the Cirque Colors Surfers Crush Collection ($108).

Abstract Daisies
@brushedbyb_
If you like the idea of a daisy nail look but cant get behind a neutral or pastel look, know theres always the option to go bolder and more abstract. Here, nail artist Brittney Ellen used a handful of vibrant OPI colors to achieve a head-turning nail look. While she didnt disclose the exact shades she used, it looks like theyre from the OPI GelColor Summer Make The Rules Summer 2023 Collection.

Iridescent Daisies
@phoebesummernails
Iridescent, glazed-donut finishes remain popular for summer 2023, making this demure daisy nail design an obvious choice. Nail artist Phoebe Cascarina used Cirque Colors Nail Polish ($15) in the shade Soleil as the base and created the flowers with Lights Lacquer Nail Polish ($11) in shades Paper Snow and Banana Split.

Patriotic Daisies
@nailsby.hails
Summer is pretty much synonymous with red, white, and blue colorways, thanks to Memorial Day and Fourth of July celebrations. To embrace the classic color combo, consider copying this daisy nail design by nail artist Hailey Lloyd. The exact shade of red she used is the Luxapolish Gel Polish ($17) in the shade Mai Tai.

Dainty Daisies
@disseynails
Of course, theres always the option to ditch white daisies altogether. Just look how pretty a bunch of colorful blooms can look paired with a couple French tip accents.
