'Rose Water Nails': The Coquette-Inspired Manicure Trend For Fans Of Minimalist Manis

While we love variations of neutral manis in taupes and nudes, there's something about the pale, muted pink 'rose water' mani that has us majorly swooning. The classic, ethereal, feminine energy of this particular hue is timeless and chic — and stands on its own next to the strawberry milk nail trend. The understated mani isn't loud or boastful, but it captivates nonetheless. "What I love about this trend is that you can decide if you want a lighter pink, added sparkle, or a chrome finish to really make this nail look personalized," Deborah Lippmann, a celebrity manicurist and founder of the eponymous nail brand, told PopSugar. The manicure itself is simple enough to replicate at home, but of course, there's nothing quite like a professional polish at the salon.

Suitable for all nail lengths as well as subtle embellishments, the rose water manicure has a hint of warmth to it, making the trend delightful for the summer months. And its resemblance to a zen scene of rose petals floating on serene water simply can't be beaten.
