Hats off to the Barbie movie’s marketing team. Everywhere we look, brands from every industry are getting swept up in the Barbie mania. From fashion with collaborations with Gap, Aldo, Superga footwear and Beis luggage and not to mention AirBNB’s Barbie Dream House, it’s Barbie’s world and we’re all just living in it. There is nothing quite as fantastic as living life in pink. Perfectly illustrated by Margot Robbie’s red carpet appearances around the world. Appearing everywhere as Barbie herself, thanks to stylist Andrew Mukamal, make-up artist Pati Dubroff and hair stylist Bryce Scarlett. Every little details has been perfectly planned down to of course the Barbie nails. Nail artists including Cho, Jocely Petroni, Betina Goldstein and Tom Bachik have all been on call for Barbie’s must-have nails. Our social feeds have, unsurprisingly, been taken over by pink manicures, from minimalistic to full Ken-energy. We’ve been enjoying Barbie pink French tips, to two-tone Barbie nails, glittery Barbie nails and gradient pink Barbie nails. We’ve paired the trending Barbie nails with the best nail colours to get them for yourself. From a subtly pink nail colour to full on hot pink nail colour, there’s something for everyone, no matter what you’re style.
