Teal nail polish is a mix between green and blue. Sometimes verging on the edge of turquoise and intersecting with aqua green, it’s watery, lush and a perfect summer color.

Teal nails can be light, dark, glittery and pearly. 

In this article, you will find swatches of a few of the best teal nail colors we’ve found to give you an idea of the range out there and available to you.

Moving from light teal to dark teal nail polishes, in the images below you will hopefully find a few teal nail ideas to meet your needs.

essie gel couture jewels and jacquard only

jewels and jacquard only 402 is a deep teal nail polish with a pearl finish that’s opaque in two coats and dries to a glossy finish. Due to no base coat in this polish system this shade does tend to stain the nails, yet it may be worth it to you, as the microshimmer in this polish is almost mesmerizing.

These are just a few of the teal nail ideas we have to share. If you like any of these colors and need to fill the gaps in your polish collection with them, follow the links under each polish to purchase.
