Peach leads this spring palette, with cream as the companion and ivory as the accent. Choose a light palette with distinct warm and cool notes. Pastel references are easier to separate when neighbouring nails do not have almost the same hue.
The mood
Choose a light palette with distinct warm and cool notes. Pastel references are easier to separate when neighbouring nails do not have almost the same hue.
Why these colours
Peach is a light orange-pink reference. Its warm undertone is easier to judge beside cream than beside a saturated red.
Cream is the companion: Cream adds warmth to an off-white palette. Compare it with a cooler white when choosing a neutral background for gold or brown accents.
Ivory provides the accent: Ivory is a pale warm neutral between white and cream. It can create a gentler separation from beige than a bright white tip.
Three-colour spring rhythm
Alternate lead and companion colours across four nails, then use the light neutral on the fifth. A small dot of the lead can link that neutral nail back to the set.
For this version, “lead” means peach, “companion” means cream and “accent” means ivory. Adjust the area of each colour after comparing your chosen product swatches.

Questions
Can I change the accent?
Yes. Start by changing only the ivory accent while keeping peach as the lead. Compare the new palette at nail size so the important detail stays visible.
