25 Simple Pink Nails for Effortless Color

Simple pink is the color I mix more than any other, a clean shade that goes with absolutely everything without asking for attention.

What I always tell clients booking this shade is that finish matters more than usual here, a sheer simple pink and an opaque simple pink read like two completely different manicures.

Here are the 25 simple pink nails my clients keep requesting.

Sheer Simple Pink

A barely-there wash of pink is the most requested version of this shade, quiet and natural.

Opaque Simple Pink

A fully opaque simple pink gives a cleaner, more polished finish for clients who want more coverage.

Simple Pink French Tip

A pink base with a soft white line is one of the gentlest French looks I paint.

Hot Simple Pink Sets

A saturated hot pink gives simple sets an even bolder, more confident finish.
