We've trawled Instagram to bring you the very best pink nail art designs that we could find... Not a shade that should just be reserved for Wednesdays, pink in its many hues is actually one of the most versatile nail polish colours out there and no matter what option you pick, it's without doubt a key shade for summer 2021.
From bright fuchsia to a soft muted rose, or a highlighter neon-pink, there is a shade for everyone, no matter if your nail muse is Meghan Markle or Cardi B.
We're talking neon pink flames, glitter ombre, subtle marble and even sheer, jelly nails. Whether you're looking for acrylics, or gels, polish or natural, we've got you covered.
So before you crack out your nail art kits or book that appointment take inspiration from some of the most talented artists around the world. From Betina Goldstein to Mimi D, Anouska Anastasia and Krishna J to name just a few, because after this you'll never regret your colour choice again.
Although with so many options to choose from, don't blame us if you can't narrow it down to just one.
Hey, life may be testing us right now, but at least we can finally get our nails done again soon...
Neon nights
Match your nails to your trainers with a pink so bright, it practically burns.
Opalescent
The shift in these nails gives them an almost ethereal effect, we're obsessed.
Simply natural
For the healthiest looking nails in town, choose a light based baby pink.
Paris Hilton pink
Go Pepto-Bismol pink with a creme polish and high shine top coat.
Rose quartz
A relatively easily nail art design to try at home which might hopefully help you find love too.
Straight from the '90s
Opt for a sheer pink based glitter and some smiley faces for nails that rival your childhood jelly shoes.
Pick a colour
It's the hardest decision of them all, so why limit yourself to just one?
Neon ombre
Short nailed girls rejoice! You don't need acrylics for this neon ombre design.
Seeing stars
We love this pink and blue combination so much we might even attempt it at home.
Jello shot
But you will need acrylics to create these iconic, neon jelly nails.
Body language
Until Instagram will let us free the nipple, we'll leave our nails to do the talking.
'00s nostalgia
Reverse your traditional glitter ombre for nails worthy of any '00s music video.
Go faster
We love the contrast of the subtle natural pink and these neon yellow stripes.
Barely there
Make the most of your extra nail length from all that vitamin D by keeping things clean and natural with a sheer pink and a good file.
The new rosé
A rose gold glitter on top of a pink gel polish makes for the perfect #Nailfie.
Metallic lines
Not a fan of pink? Try a metallic or foil finish for a look that is more edgy than cute.
Sugared almonds
For nails that look good enough to eat, choose a nude based pink that's a few shades lighter than your skin tone.
Gemstone pink
What could be cuter than a baby pink manicure? A baby pink manicure encrusted with rhinestones...
