## White can be crisp, soft, or blended

White nails offer more variety than a solid opaque coat. This gallery includes French tips, ombré blends, and nude or pink pairings, each with a different level of contrast. Compare a bright white edge with a softer base, then decide whether you want the color across the full nail or only as a detail. The finish and shape also influence whether the manicure feels graphic or understated.

## Find the right white for your look

Whites can appear cool, creamy, or translucent in photos, so use images as a guide rather than an exact shade match. Compare the color beside your skin tone and consider whether a pink or nude base feels more natural to you. Short nails suit a neat French line; longer shapes create more room for blends. Choose a length that fits your routine and ask your nail tech about the finish you prefer.
