1. Daisy micro-nail
One daisy per nail, applied free-hand with ultra-fine brush. The n°1 floral design of 2026. Ultra-wearable, soft, never ostentatious.
- Difficulty: ★★ (accessible)
- Hold: 3-4 weeks in semi-permanent
- Recommended OPI: Funny Bunny base, white daisy + Bee-hind The Scenes yellow centre
- Wear with: anything. The pattern of the season.
2. Ombré cherry blossom
Japanese hanami inspiration. Fine branch and gradient pink cherry blossoms on 2-3 accent nails. One of Xin's favourite designs, who perfected pink-white-rosé fading in six layers.
- Difficulty: ★★★★ (gradient mastery)
- Hold: 3 weeks
- OPI: Aphrodite's Pink Nightie base, Mod About You + Funny Bunny gradient for petals
- Ideal: spring wedding, outdoor photos
3. Liberty tulips
Stylised tulips, pattern inspired by Liberty London prints: 3-4 micro-flowers per nail, scattered like a floral fabric. Perfect for the spring floral dress.
- Difficulty: ★★★ (placement)
- Hold: 3-4 weeks
- OPI: Mod About You base, tulips Lookin' Cute-icle + Big Apple Red
- Wear with: Liberty dresses, floral blouses
4. Pastel lilac
Mauve returns in 2026. Small lilac clusters in relief on two nails, the rest milky. Lilac is underrated and surprisingly flattering on fair to tanned skin.
- Difficulty: ★★★ (light 3D relief)
- Hold: 3 weeks
- OPI: Funny Bunny base, lilac Do You Lilac It? + Aphrodite's Pink Nightie accents
5. 3D lily — gel sculpture
Sculpted lily in builder gel relief. Dodo's signature piece, around 45 minutes for a single lily. Wear on the ring finger as a single accent.
- Difficulty: ★★★★★ (gel sculpture)
- Hold: 2-3 weeks (relief more friction-exposed)
- OPI: nude Tickle My France-y base, pearl white lily + fine gold
- Ideal: wedding, formal evening, photo event
6. Field of flowers
The whole nail filled with small coloured flowers (5-8 per nail), summer-meadow style. Joyful, casual, perfect for holidays and terraces.
- Difficulty: ★★★ (density)
- Hold: 3 weeks
- OPI: Funny Bunny base, mixed Aloha From OPI + Bee-hind The Scenes + Lookin' Cute-icle flowers
7. Abstract botanical
Stylised foliage in ultra-fine lines (sage green, ochre, white). More minimalist than explicit flowers. The "chic floral" option for those not wanting visible petals.
- Difficulty: ★★★★ (free-hand lines)
- Hold: 3-4 weeks
- OPI: milky base, sage green branches + ochre accents
8. Monochrome floral — relief flower same shade as nail
Ultimate subtlety: flower sculpted in relief but in the same shade as the base. Visible in light, not in direct view. Very haute couture.
- Difficulty: ★★★★ (3D relief)
- Hold: 2-3 weeks
- OPI: Funny Bunny base, sculpted flower same shade with pearl finish
