21 Pink Nails We Are Saving For Our Next Manicure

If you're anything like me, you absolutely love having your nails done. But the hardest part is choosing a nail colour to commit to. While we're big fans of nail art, or opting for a new, bold nail colour, there's something to be said for timeless pink nails. Pink is dependable, goes with all of your outfits, and is neutral–without being boring. Whether you opt for a classic baby pink, an expensive-looking muted tone, or a subtle, translucent wash of pink–AKA, "clean girl" nails–pink is a the tried and tested colour we default to when we're overwhelmed by nail colour options.

Ahead, you'll find plenty of pink nails to inspire your next manicure. Whether you opt for a baby pink, bright fuchsia French tips or a subtle wash of pink, there's something for everyone.

1. Tonal Pink Nails

Can't decide which colour pink to go for? We've all been there. Why not opt for a different hue on each nail?

Want something more subtle? Two similar shades paired together give a nod to the trend.

A baby pink is the equivalent of a pair of jeans – it will go with everything.

A pale pink is a smart choice for prolonging your manicure, as the regrowth is less obvious compared to a bolder colour. Even Rosie Huntington-Whiteley is a fan.

Almond-shaped pink nails always look so chic.

7. Raspberry Pink Nails

If red is your usual nail colour go-to, then a raspberry pink hue bridges the gap between red and pink. It also makes a great option for toenails, too.

8. "Clean Girl" Pink Nails

Sometimes, only a neutral manicure colour will do. A sheer wash of pink keeps your nails looking polished–it is like a tinted moisturiser for your nails.

A sheer wash of colour gives your manicure longevity, as translucent shades will show less chipping than opaque colours.

Top your hue of choice with a glossy top coat for a luxe finish.

Neutral pink shades are perfect for any minimalists out there.

It's a great way to add a hint of colour to your nails without going for something too bright or bold.

Classic and timeless.
