Pink has firmly established its dominance this year in both the fashion and beauty industries. Starting 2023 on a high note, Viva Magenta was declared the Pantone color of the year. This trend was further popularized by Greta Gerwig's Barbie, which showcased the allure of pink in the beauty realm. The color's influence is undeniable, with numerous makeup and fashion lines drawing inspiration from it.
From the hushed hues of ballet slippers to the electric vibes of hot pink, there's a shade of pink that speaks to every nail art enthusiast. Over the years, pink nail art has solidified its place as a perennial favorite in the beauty world—here’s how you can add it to your routine now.
1. Baby it’s pink!
Combine baby pink square tips with a negative space heart as an accent to break it up. Go with the Diego Dalla Palma Milano Nail Polish in Sweet Candy. The glossy finish, high coverage, and long-lasting results provided will only add to it.
2. Velvet dreams
High-shine nails have always been ultra-popular, especially when it gets closer to the festive and holiday season. Velvet nails are a twist on the glazed nails trend—the fuzzy and cozy finish looks just ready for the season. Ask your nail tech to use the O.P.I Nail Lacquer in Pink Bling And Be Merry and then use a velvet-textured top coat with a magnet after.
3. Salmon pink tips
An unusual hue, salmon pink is a soft blush colour ideal for people who love to keep it minimal. Opt for the Ciate London Paint Pots Nail Polish in Kiss Chase to get the look. Florals on an accent finger further elevates the charm of this manicure style.
4. Pink polka dots
Fashion’s favourite design feature, the polka dots, is a perennial nail trend as well. Equip yourself with a white nail base, a dotting tool and the Deborah Milano Gel Effect in Sahari Pink Nail Polish to recreate this design.
5. Try floral details
Channel your inner Barbie with this floral nail art design. Use LoveChild Masaba The Classics! Breathable Nail Enamel in Kismat to lay down the base. Use some dried flowers or flower-shaped nail art tattoos for a little extra sweetness.
6. Chrome for the win
Chrome nails took the internet by storm early 2023, and its after-effects are still showing on the biggest nail art trends. Combining it with soft and pastel pinks makes it a little less intense. Try the Colorbar Arteffects Nail Lacquer in Pink Chrome.
7. Nails on-the-go
Always on-the-go? Opt for these classic hot pink nails that will take a quick trip to the nail salon to get done. Use the Revlon Ultra HD Snap Nail Polish in Berry Blissed to attain this simple yet statement-making look.
