The iconic “Barbie pink”, Pantone 219 C, is a vibrant hot pink shade – somewhere in-between pink and magenta, nearing fuchsia. It’s bold, playful, and instantly recognisable – the ultimate shade for your next mani. Pink nails aren’t just a look; they’re a mood, a statement, and a way to join in on the Barbiefun. But do you know the best part?
Barbiecore isn’t just one style – it’s for every kind of Barbie! Whether you want to channel your inner ballerina Barbie, adventurous and sporty Barbie, or you're a creative, glitter-loving dreamer, there’s a pink shade that’s perfect for you. It’s a trend that celebrates individuality, confidence, and playful self-expression – and your nails are the perfect canvas!

Barbie pink instantly elevates your manicure, and it’s perfect for embracing the Barbiecore trend. It’s fun, bright and gives your nails the iconic pop of pink. Achieve the look in 5 easy steps.
Step 1: Prep your nails
Start by shaping your nails to your desired length – square, almond, or stiletto all work beautifully. Gently buff the nail surface with a buffing block to remove shine and wipe away oils. Clean, smooth nails are the key to a long-lasting gel manicure.
Step 2: Apply base coat
Add a thin layer of your favourite Mylee Base Coat and cure under an LED lamp for 60 seconds. This protects your nails and ensures the polish adheres to the nail perfectly.
Step 3: Layer your Barbie pink gel polish
Apply a thin layer of your chosen pink gel polish (like our bright Modern Romance gel polish) and cure for 60 seconds. Repeat in thin layers until you reach full coverage, remembering to cap the free edge of each nail.
Step 4: Seal with top coat
Finish with a layer of Top Coat. Remove the tacky layer with 2-in-1 Nail Prep & Wipe, or use No-Wipe Top Coat for a glossy, fuss-free finish.
Step 5: Moisturise and admire
Massage cuticle oil into your nails for hydration and shine. Your hot and vibrant Barbie pink nails are now ready to turn heads!
Unleash your inner disco Barbie and dance the night away with this sparkly mani! Perfect for parties, nights out, or whenever you feel like adding extra glamour.
First, prep and shape your nails before applying your base coat and gel polish. For this look, you need one regular gel polish and one shimmer gel polish. After you’ve applied and cured every layer of pink nail polish, layer the glitter gel polish on top for that disco-ready sparkle.
You can add your personal touch with the shimmer nail polish. What about painting wavy lines of glitter with a nail brush? Or, maybe painting one entire nail with the pretty shimmer polish? Only your imagination sets the limits – just don’t forget to seal your pretty design with a top coat for some extra shine.
Live out the wild and adventurous Barbie in you with playful and pink leopard pattern nails! This bold design combines different shades of pink with striking leopard spots for a look that’s fierce and fabulous. Let your nails roar with personality!
Start by prepping your nails and applying a base coat. Then, layer your favourite Barbie pink gel nail polish until you achieve full coverage. Using a fine nail art brush, add irregular leopard spots in darker pink, black, or whatever colour you desire. Finish with a glossy top coat to seal your design. Don’t forget to cure each layer of gel polish for a mani that lasts.
