8 Barbiecore Nail Trends
Move over “clean girl" aesthetic because “Barbiecore” is taking over. This nostalgic, dopamine-induced trend embodies the bright and vibrant signature-pink aesthetic of none other than the iconic fashion doll. And one way to get in on the latest craze is to opt for a Barbiecore-inspired nail design.

Below, check out eight Barbiecore nail looks that will inspire your client to try this trend.

Barbie French Mani

This look puts a Barbie spin on the classic French manicure by adding hot pink tips to a beige base coat.

Pink Ombre

Can’t decide which shade of pink to use? How about all of them! Use five solid shades of pink on each hand, including colors like blush, fuchsia, hot pink, and bubblegum.
