Clouds are another trend we spotted when researching pink Valentines Day nails. This is the first example of the dreamy trend but we’ll share another example with you on this list.
Pretty Pastels
Pairing pastels together is another winning trend of the season. As we saw with that lilac and peach, other pastels also look fantastic and totally lovable.
XOXO
X’s and O’s are a fun idea to spice up your pink Valentines Day nails. This person ran with the idea and we think it totally paid off. You’ll see another example on this list of how it can be done.
Pink & Green
Pairing opposing colors on the color wheel always create a pop. Pink and green look radical next to each other and would make a big statement.
Just Pink
Two different shades of pink prove an understated and sophisticated way to nod to Valentines Day. For an elegant look, go with something similar.
Swirls, Girls
For something more playful, consider going full-on 1960s with some pastel pink swirls. It’s a totally mod look that reads sweet and carefree.
Listen to Your Heart
Again, hot pink paired with a baby one will really pop. Consider doing something different for each nail for an energetic look.
Hearts Beat Fast
Pink hearts and dots form a sort of pattern on these pink Valentines Day nails. Switch it up with some pink tips for a winning look.
Bold with Black
We find those X’s and O’s again with a lovely pale pink and bold black. If all-pink is too girly for you, make a statement with the addition of black. Also, matte pink is underutilized and we think it’s an idea worth considering.
On The Gradient
Each nail is paler than the last in these very sweet pink Valentines Day nails. Live that peach fantasy with evocative nails like these.
Get Into Gold
Metallics are another huge trend this year. Try some gold leaf for a rich look with a touch of class.
Some More Sparkle
Silver sparkle with a white base looks fantastic next to these pale pink nails. We love the black heart detail that is equal parts sweet and sophisticated.
