With so many nail ideas constantly circling the internet, it’s easy to get overwhelmed by trying to decipher what’s “in” and what’s “out.” While I love a colorful nail, sometimes I crave something simple and neutral, and after months of moody fall nails and glittery holiday nails, that’s never been more true.

Keeping things simple can be refreshing, and a white set of nails doesn’t have to equal a boring set of nails. Sometimes, they feel like a blank canvas, which is exactly what I need for the start of 2025. I found 22 white nail ideas that are perfect for when you need a clean slate.
