Olive, wasabi, pistachio, jade shades… This winter, green appears in a multitude of variations. Long underrated, green manicure is now establishing itself as one of the most coveted shades on the beauty scene. From an ultra-chic olive undertone to an almost mineral jade, green appears on nails as a true manifesto of creativity.
Sophisticated but not boring; bold but understated, this color accurately captures the spirit of the times and resonates with our desires for nature, luxury, and novelty. The proof is in the six shades you should try this year.

Wasabi
Spicy, unexpected and totally on-trend, wasabi is the new nail obsession. Somewhere between an acid green and a spicy yellow, it energizes nails and enlivens even the most minimalist looks. This bold hue, named one of Pinterest’s colors of the year, embodies our desire for freshness and creativity. The result is a vibrant manicure that’s not afraid to push the boundaries.

Olive
More subdued than the vitamin greens, olive is considered the most sophisticated shade of the season. Inspired by utilitarian wardrobes and natural palettes, it gives nails a restrained but confident elegance. Its strength lies in its versatility: it easily balances work looks and adds a fashionable accent. Not too dark and not too modest, olive fits perfectly into professional everyday life with obvious chic.

Khaki
Khaki goes through the seasons and never loses its relevance. This color has long become a classic in manicure. Not too neutral and not too bold, it is an elegant alternative to traditional nude shades. Its main advantage is versatility: it fits any style and wardrobe without any effort. On short or long nails, khaki creates a restrained, neat and at the same time sophisticated look. The ideal choice for those who seek chic without being demonstrative or eccentric.

Pistachio
Delicate and incredibly attractive, pistachio green promises to be the most appetizing shade of winter. Its pastel, soft and light coating gives nails a delicate freshness. In combination with rounded shapes or glossy varnish, it also inspires flirtatious femininity. This “sweet” shade adds lightness to the manicure without going overboard. The perfect balance between tenderness and elegance in anticipation of the saving spring.

Jade
Also chosen as one of Pinterest’s colors of the year, jade green transforms a manicure into a true work of art. Its visual depth, with shifting reflections and an almost watery transparency, subtly catches the light. Inspired by the tranquility of Japanese ponds, this shade evokes silence and contemplation. Each nail becomes a living surface with a play of light and depth, where creativity can flourish without limits.

Forest green
The dark, forest shade is the most intense in the palette. This deep, almost night-like green gives nails a restrained charisma. It evokes forest paths, damp moss and a rare feeling of complete disconnection from the hustle and bustle. Ideal for those looking for an elegant, velvety manicure, this color adds an organic and instinctive strength to the image. A shade that invites you to slow down, step away from the noise and give space to the quiet power of nature.
