March Nails: During March, the world is engaged in a delicate dance between the hopeful beginnings of spring and the frigid end of winter. It’s one of those amazing months. And if you’re like us, you’re excited about new beginnings, longer days, and yes, new nails, as this change brings.
It’s time to embrace lighter, more airy colors that capture the beauty of a changing season and put aside those warm, dark hues. Let’s explore the amazing world of March nails, where pastels and fun color bursts are the mainstays.
Why March Nails Feel So Special
March marks the beginning of the gradual transition into spring. At the first indications of warmer weather and blooming flowers, we want for vibrant colors—without completely relinquishing the warm, snug feelings of winter.
According to famous Hollywood manicurist Hang Nguyen, pastel colors like mint green, lavender, and baby blue feel light, airy, and refreshing—capturing the sentiments of springtime. Your nails perfectly represent the positivity in the air, and it’s time to enjoy spring.
So while you’re still not ready for the full on force of spring, here is some good news: Mazz Hanna, Nailing Hollywood CEO, says transition gradually. According to him, we should accept “subtle gray undertones that keep the vibe cool but hint at warmer days ahead.”
What are the bold nail colors of March? We have accumulated a list of 20 magnificent alternatives that will remake your fingertips the talk of the town.
1. Lilac: Soft, Subtle, and Spring-Ready
The perfect shade of color for winter to spring transition? Of course, lilac! “Muted lavender is great for mid-March,” says Mazz Hanna. That muted hue has some color to it but not too much. One of the best choices here is Chanel’s Le Vernis in Immortelle: this sophisticated lilac captures that hope and new beginnings of early spring.
2. Oatmeal: Neutral Elegance
Oatmeal might be your default option, though, should you not be quite ready to get on the color bandwagon. The perfect neutral for early March is certainly Gelcare’s Alabaster Pink with a soft oatmeal undertone. It is understatedly elegant and gives you just the right amount of coziness and sophistication as the season progresses.
3. Powder Blue: A Nod to Spring
This will be your new best friend for late March as you get ready to embrace just a little bit more color. Dazzle Dry’s Lotion, Please! is your perfect spring time hue: adds just the teensiest amount of shine to everything, gets on with all of the other pastels, and is quiet and nice.
4. Cool Mint Green: Fresh and Invigorating
Is mint green the perfect color of early spring? Corrigan by Olive & June is one beautiful mint hue that lives and breathes energy and freshness. If the harshness of winter can be traded in for the cozy delight of spring, then this would be like sipping an iced tea on a warm afternoon.

6. Peachy Pink: Warmth at Last
No less needed as the warmth of spring looms. This season reminds one of feeling comfortable and friendly: Orly’s “Dance With Me” is not something that won’t warm any room. Fun and bright. Very good time in late March, when flower is just on its way opening up.
