You really can create a ton of different looks and feels with this simple but classic color choice.

Hopefully one or more of these gorgeous designs has got you inspired to create your next awesome manicure.

But wait!

Before you go, I have some knowledge to impart and some useful tips to help you choose the right color for you.

If you’re not sure which shade of pink is best for you, here are some essential tips to help you nail down the perfect light pink color for you.

  • Go with a light pink that matches your skin tone.

That means peachy and coral pinks for my warmed-skinned beauties and cool icy pinks and pinky purple shades for my cool-skinned beauties.

If you want to know more about matching nail colors to your skin tone read this.

And if you want to see a list of all the best light pink nail polishes from OPI, Essie, Zoya, and more check out this post.

  • Read the nail polish descriptions.

If you aren’t sure if a polish is warm or cool, reading the polish descriptions can really help you out.

Not all polish makers describe their colors very well, but some do.

Zoya in particular does a great job at explaining exactly what’s in the bottle.

They even allow you to search for light pink polishes based on whether they have cool or warm undertones – how good is that!?!

I can’t tell you how much my polish game leveled up once I found out that little tip!

Have fun creating your pink nail paradise!

Bye for now my beauties, see you next time 🙂
