Looking at pastel pink nails is easy on the eyes. Choosing the right one for you is an art. If you’re choosing the right shade of pastel pink for your nails, below we have swatched a few of our favorite shades from the light pink nails universe to help you decide.

Southern Living named essie’s fiji as the greatest summer color of all time, and while you can wear it into the warmer months, it is the perfect spring pink.
It is bright, crisp, and creamy. You could call it a baby pastel pink. Shown in three coats, it has some white to the formula, so if you have fairer skin, it will make your hands look more tan - which can be a benefit of lighter nail shades.

Sinful Colors Pink Smart
Update: Sinful Colors has stopped releasing new colors following the bankruptcy of their parent company, Revlon, in 2022.
Sinful Colors Pink Smart is a vibrant pastel pink shown in three coats. It is the most saturated pink of the three.
Pink Smart is a thicker formula, probably the thickest of all three shown in this post, but still needs three coats to get it opaque. The bottle used for swatching was given to Lots of Lacquer by a neighbor destashing their collection, and it is a slightly older formula.

OPI Infinite Shine Mod About You
OPI’s Mod About You is shown above in two coats and very similar in hue to essie fiji but this swatch is shown OPI’s Infinite Shine long wear formula - meaning you are more likely to get more days out of your manicure than you might with the fiji.
This one dries quickly and the coats go on thin. When applying, you may need to go over your strokes a few times quickly to get even coverage across each nail, before it dries.
