Pink and yellow nails can be cheery, bring joy and offer a bright pop of color to the nail and your summer nail designs.
Pink and yellow nails are sometimes called pink lemonade nails or strawberry lemonade nails because they remind you of the pink and yellow fruits that go into making that drink - lemons and strawberries!
In this post you will find photos of pink and yellow nail color on the nail in a Chevron French Manicure, which means just the tips get opaque coverage, painted on in diagonal lines on each side of the nail. The base of the nail is a sheer neutral.

- OPI Natural Nail Base Coat
- OPI Bare My Soul NLSH4, as a sheer base
- essie gel couture haute to trot 150, as the pink
- Sally Hansen Xtreme Wear Daisy Dukes 353, as the yellow
- Glossy Top Coat
- Nail brush, cup of water and acetone for light clean up
