Sage Green Is The Internet’s Favorite Nail Color

We can count on one hand the number of times we’ve reached for green nail polish at the salon — not because there’s anything wrong with the color, but in a world of creamy neutrals and poppy reds, shades of green can get lost in the mix.

The hue shouldn’t be overlooked, though, especially the in-between tones that take inspiration from leafy herbs like thyme and sage. Muted greens feel particularly apt for fall: They’re less predictable than dusty roses and caramel nudes, but still palatable if dark browns and burgundies aren’t quite your jam. Plus, sage green is shaping up to be fall’s color de jour across nail inspo accounts on Instagram, Pinterest, and TikTok.

Ahead, we rounded up our favorite sage-inspired polish colors to use on your next at-home mani day.

At Refinery29, we’re here to help you navigate this overwhelming world of stuff. All of our market picks are independently selected and curated by the editorial team. If you buy something we link to on our site, Refinery29 may earn commission.

CND Vinylux Cap & Gown

Most nail salons carry CND polishes. If you’re looking for a green manicure, scour the wall for this neural earthy tone called Cap & Gown in either the Vinylux polish or the Shellac one, if you’re looking for a longer wear.

Zoya Satin Sage

Zoya describes this color as a “mossy sage green cream” — but it’s much cuter than actual moss. Each coat goes on pigmented and dries down to a satin finish (kind of like your favorite demi-matte lipstick).

Color Club It’s About Thyme

This earthy, wearable green is less moss and more matcha latte.

Essie Gel Couture Sage You Love Me

If you gravitate toward pale nudes, go for this creamy sage that’ll give you the same barely-there effect with a hint of green. You only need two coats for shiny, full-coverage color that lasts.
