Frequently asked questions
What is in the spring colors collection?
Around 1,200 live products tagged for spring by the brands ND carries, in every format: gel and lacquer duos, acrylic and dip powders, gel color singles, 3-in-1 combos, nail lacquer, and dip powder. LAVIS is the largest group, then OPI, LDS, DND, NuGenesis, DND DC, Chaun Legend, DND Diva, Aprés, SNS, and V Beauty Pure. The palette runs pastels, milky pinks, butter yellows, sage and mint greens, lilacs, corals, and sheer nudes.
Which spring shades should a salon stock first?
A milky pink, a butter yellow, a sage or mint green, a lilac, a coral, and a sheer nude. The OPI Intelli spring duos (Bare My Soul, Sweet Heart, Chiffon-d of You) cover the premium pinks and nudes and sell as duo, gel only, or lacquer only; the DND and LAVIS spring tags cover the greens, yellows, and lilacs at the value tier. Every duo's lacquer side is the pedicure color.
Why shop by season instead of by brand?
Because clients ask by color, not by brand. A seasonal page shows every brand's answer to the same shade family side by side, so a salon can pick the price tier that suits each client and fill the chart's gaps without opening ten brand pages. Once the season's staples are chosen, they are reordered from the brand pages or the 6 and 12-color sets.
How do I keep pastels from streaking?
Prep and a thin, level base matter more with pastels because they show every flaw. Apply three thin coats cured between rather than two heavy ones, since milky pinks, butter yellows, and lilacs are the shades most likely to streak, and cap the free edge with a no-wipe top so a light shade does not yellow at the tip. For the glazed look, put a sheer pink or nude jelly over a plain white.
Are spring colors sold at wholesale?
Yes. Every listing at ND Nails Supply is wholesale-priced for everyone, with no business license, no minimum order, and no membership fee. Orders $100+ ship free, and in-stock items ordered before 2pm PT on weekdays leave the same day. Filter by brand, format, color, or style option in the sidebar.
Spring nail colors, every brand and every system
This is the spring shade board across ND Nails Supply: around 1,200 live products tagged for the season by the brands ND carries, in every format a salon runs. LAVIS carries the largest group, followed by OPI, LDS, DND, NuGenesis, DND DC, Chaun Legend, DND Diva, Aprés, SNS, and V Beauty Pure. The formats are gel and lacquer duos, acrylic and dip powders, gel color singles, 3-in-1 combos, nail lacquer, and dip powder, so the same spring pink or sage green can be delivered as a gel manicure, a dip set, a lacquer pedicure, or a sculpted acrylic. The palette is what spring means on a chart: pastels, milky pinks, butter yellows, sage and mint greens, lilacs, corals, and the sheer nudes clients ask for from March through May.

How to build a spring chart from this page
- The core six: a milky pink, a butter yellow, a sage or mint green, a lilac, a coral, and a sheer nude. OPI's spring duos (Bare My Soul, Sweet Heart, Chiffon-d of You) cover the pinks and nudes; the DND and LAVIS spring tags cover the greens, yellows, and lilacs.
- The premium column: the OPI Intelli Gel & Lacquer duos for the client who asks for a name; each listing sells the duo, the Intelli-Gel alone, or the lacquer alone.
- The value column: LAVIS and LDS spring gel and dip, which carry the depth of the chart at house-brand pricing.
- Dip and acrylic: the LAVIS acrylic and dip powders tagged for spring, so dip clients get the same shades as gel clients.
- The pedicure match: every duo's lacquer side is the toe color, so the spring chart doubles as the pedicure chart.
Why buy by season rather than by brand?
Because clients ask by color, not by brand. A client who wants a butter yellow does not care whether it is DND or LAVIS; she cares that it is on the chart in March. A seasonal page lets a salon see every brand's answer to the same shade family side by side, pick the price tier that suits the client, and fill the gaps without opening ten brand pages. Once the season's staples are chosen, the brand pages are where they are reordered.
How to apply spring shades so pastels stay clean
- Prep and base. Pastels and sheers show every flaw, so buff evenly, dehydrate, and cure a thin, level base.
- Three thin coats for pastels. Milky pinks, butter yellows, and lilacs are the shades most likely to streak; three thin coats cured between beat two heavy ones every time.
- Top and cap. A no-wipe top with the free edge capped keeps a light shade from yellowing at the tip.
- Lacquer side. Base coat, two thin coats, top coat, air-dried between coats.
Pro tip: a milky pink or sheer nude jelly over a plain white gives the clean, glazed look clients bring in from social media; the white evens the nail bed and the sheer gives the glass finish.
When does the spring chart go up?
Most salons switch from the winter chart in the first week of March, when the OPI spring drop is in stock, and carry spring through May. The pastels roll straight into the summer neons and brights from June, so leave the milky pinks and nudes on the chart year-round and rotate the yellows, greens, and lilacs out as the summer tag takes over. The sidebar season tags do the rotation.
Which spring shades get asked for by name?
A few spring colors arrive at the desk with a name attached, and it pays to have them on the chart before the client asks. OPI's Bare My Soul is the sheer pink requested by name every spring, and it is here as the Intelli duo, the lacquer alone, and in Powder Perfection dip. DND's 746 Buttered Corn is the butter yellow that circulates on social media each March, sold as the gel and lacquer duo. Sage comes from Chaun Legend (Sage My Name gel, Sage It acrylic), and the milky shades from LDS (149 Milky Way in 3-in-1 and lacquer, 077 Malted Milk in gel and lacquer) and Chaun Legend Coconut Milk. Put these on the top row of the spring chart and let the rest of the palette fill in around them; when a client brings a screenshot, it is almost always one of these.
The art that goes with a spring chart
Spring pastels sell with soft, low-contrast art rather than bold lines. The requests are the Easter speckle done with LAVIS Eggshell Gel over a pastel (shake the bottle first, since the specks settle, and top coat over it), the blush and aura nail patted from a Pat Pat pastel palette and softened with Blooming Gel, pressed dried flowers set into a sheer jelly, and a pearl or opal cat eye for prom and bridal (CE5 Ver2 A Breath Of Spring, CE12 Ver2 Crimson Frost, and the C14 Secret Garden collection). On the LAVIS chart the pastel block runs from number 109 to 156, and the Sweet Pastel Bright and Tea Party collections are the sets that open a spring wall in one order; on LDS the Spring and Cupid's Garden Color Craze 72s do the same job. The pastels show every flaw in the base, so the spring chart is the one to pair with a rubber base or a carefully leveled base gel, and with a dehydrator on a client whose gel lifts.
