8 Barbiecore Nail Trends

Move over “Clean Girl Aesthetic” because “Barbiecore” is taking over. This nostalgic, dopamine-induced trend embodies the bright and vibrant signature-pink aesthetic of none other than the iconic fashion doll. And one way to get in on the latest craze is to opt for a Barbiecore inspired nail design.

Check out these eight Barbiecore nail looks that will inspire your client to take on this trend.
