Trending Styles for Pink Cow Print Nails
- Cow print French tips – if you don’t want to commit to full coverage for your nails, this is a more subtle approach to this manicure
- Alternating cow print nails – similar to the above, if you don’t want to go full one with one very striking anil design, alternating the look with full coverage nail polish in a similar shade of pink, or more natural tones is a great way to achieve the look without making it very overpowering and distracting
- Abstract cow print nails – if you prefer a more artistic approach to this look, you can go for an abstract look for the cow print that will make it look like a futuristic painting
- Acrylic cow print nails – you can get a lot of ready-made acrylic nails in a range of different designs, saving you the hassle of going to the nail salon to recreate this look.
- Gradient cow print nails – featuring five different shades of pink are used for the cow spots
- Neon pink and bright pink nail polish – to make a statement with your nails, reach for the brightest shades of pink!
- Pink base color – the cow spots usually stand out the best with a neutral base, but if you want to make the look pop even more, you can add a lighter shade of pink as your base color and add the cow spots in darker shades of pink.
