10. Strawberry Milk
The top pink nail trend for 2025: the strawberry milk manicure. Choose sheer pink for a classic look or go milky for a softer finish. Either way, it’s clean, simple, and stylish.
11. Celestial Nails
Pink, but make it magical. Mix dark and light pink French tips, then load up the gold chrome stars and rhinestones. Celestial-core never flops.
12. Textured Florals
You can try the 3D floral trend without going over the top: a soft pink base, small 3D flowers, and thin gold chrome lines. If you’re spending hours at the salon, make it worth it.

21. Mix & Match
Mixing and matching animal print, 3D details, and aura effect, all in two shades of pink? Yes, this is IT. The ultimate cool-girl pink mani that’s cute but knows how to play.

Pink side Frenchies, but add dark pink and white outlines for that funky boho-chic vibe. The perfect pink mani when temps start dropping.

White French tips on a pink base? Cuteeee. Whether you go thin and delicate or full-on white tips, swapping out a neutral base for a sweet-pea pink instantly makes it prettier.

Rose pink, but let’s marble it with white swirls and keep the design at the tips for that French ombré (frombré, if you’re cool like that) energy.

Pink French tips? Cute. Add trendy cheetah print and a blooming gel flower? Insanely cute. A little wild, a little girly, and a whole lot of slay.

Pink French tips, but let’s stack some rhinestones. Why? Because drama. If your nails aren’t blinding in sunlight, start over.
