Zendaya’s Chic and Colorful Nail Journey

There’s no one who loves minimalist manicures more than Zendaya. If there’s ever been a nail trend that involves a single color, you can bet that Zendaya is rocking it. From blueberry milk to lip gloss and even cherry Jello nails, she has flaunted all the colors of the rainbow in the chicest way possible. And her latest obsession? Baby pink nails.

Zendaya might not share every detail of her life on Instagram, but she finally gave us a sneak peek into her off-duty outfit, nails, and seemingly, her world. In a rare Instagram Story on September 21, she posted a photo of herself reflected in the door and window of a car, and boy, did she capture our attention!

While her outfit initially caught our eye, it was her nails that stole the show. Combining her 2014 self with the chic style of 2023 NYC It-girl, Zendaya rocked a purple Warriors baseball hat, trendy skinny black sunglasses, a rolled-up gray T-shirt, a ruffly white miniskirt, and knee-high tan boots. To add a touch of femininity, her nails were painted in a delicate shade of baby pink with a short and natural square shape.

If you want to match Zendaya’s classic baby pink look, we’ve got you covered with a step-by-step guide. Start by removing any lingering nail polish and applying cuticle oil to soften and push back your cuticles. Then, cut and shape your nails to mimic Zendaya’s natural style. Next, buff the surface of your nails for an even base, apply your favorite base coat, and get ready for the color.

When it comes to baby pink nail shades, the options are endless. For a nude-pink look, try the Chanel Le Vernis Longwear Nail Colour in Ballerina ($30). If you prefer a rosy mauve pink, go for the Londontown Kur Perfecting Nail Veil #4 ($20). And if you’re feeling bold with a sheer Barbie pink, choose the Essie Expressie Quick-Dry Nail Polish in Mall Crawler ($10).
