20 Light Pink Nail Designs for a Cute and Classic Manicure




Light pink is a classic choice for a manicure. It mimics the colour of the natural nail bed and is neutral enough to go with any outfit. And though it's not the buzziest nail colour, it's far from boring. A sheer light pink polish makes the perfect minimalist manicure for all the clean girls out there, while a bubblegum hue is bolder and bubblier. For an early-aughts callback, try a French tip, or add a coat of chrome or a bow decal for an ultra-feminine touch. Come Valentine's Day, try a romantic rose tone or a smattering of pink hearts. If light pink is anything, it's versatile.

Because light pink is so neutral, it goes with any nail shape. And because it's similar to the colour of a natural nail, chips in your polish are less obvious. Ahead, find 20 light pink nail art ideas to inspire your next manicure.


Decal for Days



Any nail look can be elevated with 3D decals. These shimmery, baby-pink nails are made even more glam with cute, matching bows and hearts.


Citrus Twist



Say yes to summer early with a little slice of lemon. This little design says that you’re ready to go straight to spring break in Portofino.


All the Shades!



Never settle for just one shade of pink if all of them are calling your name. Start with a darker shade on the pinky for some drama, and then go a shade later with each finger for an ombré effect.


Gloss is Boss



Shine is key in this ultra-manicured, soft pink look. Don’t forget to push back your cuticles–it’s the best way to achieve this “clean girl aesthetic” manicure.


Hint of Gold



Add a hint of drama to a gentle light pink with these metallic gold designs. Mix up paint and decals for an even bigger pop.


Pink Skies



The sky is truly the limit when it comes to cute nail designs–and this set proves that that’s the truth. We love the ethereal aspect of these dreamy, pink nails.


Blush Holographic



Holographic nails look good with any colour, but pink is truly the crème de la crème. If you’re looking to be Barbie for the day, this is your best bet.


Free and Floral



Two little pink flowers on a light pink nail? Yes, please. This simple and cute look is sure to be a spring favourite.


Y2K Style Icon



2000s fashion has been making its comeback, from the shoes we wear all the way to our fingertips. This nail design seems like a decal that Lizzie McGuire would have in her room, and for that we love it even more.


Metallic Magic



Sometimes a metallic set of nails is enough. But other times, a tiny bow detail is the perfect addition to set this design apart from the rest.


Shimmer in Pink



We love this shimmery, translucent shade. Paired with a long, almond nail set, the see-through nature of this polish really shines.


Strawberry Milk



Yes, a cow print looks perfect with a light pink background — any questions?


Aura Stars



This stunning manicure features a pale, pinky nude base with a pink aura in the centre, topped with white stars. It's fun and ethereal.


Perfect with Pearls



Everything goes with pearls, especially a soft, vanilla pink nail set.


Glazed and Golden



This glazy pink look is super shiny and super chic. The textured golden decal is literally the bow on top.


Just Peachy



Everything's better with a hint of peach. This colour is so pretty, it doesn’t need any sparkles or gadgets to make it stand out.


Pink Claws



Sharp long nails always have an edge to them. Soften up the look with a sweet shade of cotton candy pink.


Rose French



This extra pink take on the French manicure uses a more opaque base coat with a glossy finish.


Cotton Candy Swirls



For the person that always needs a sweet treat, these cotton candy-esque nails are the perfect choice. Just don’t eat them!


Aura Hearts



This pink design features a darker shade of pink in the centre that slowly fades to a baby pink at the ends. Plus, how cute is the tiny, hand-drawn heart in the centre!
