Ballerina nails exude elegance and minimalism, perfectly showcased in the image with the shade 399 Ballerina Pink as the base. This soft, semi-transparent nude tone gives the nails a fresh and well-groomed look. To add a subtle yet playful touch to the design, small dots in the shade 342 Ruby Pink have been applied, creating a beautiful contrast without disrupting the refined simplicity. This stylish and versatile design suits any occasion and highlights the elegant, feminine look that makes ballerina nails so beloved.
