Do you have a hard time picking out nail polish? Are you overwhelmed with all the choices? Well, most women are as there's a huge selection of nail polish colors to choose from. This guide was created to help you narrow down the selection and choose the best color for your situation.
Depending on why you're doing your nails, this could help narrow down the choice for you. Are you going to a wedding? Do you have a business meeting? Are you looking for an everyday color? These are questions that should help narrow down a color choice for you.
Let's start with a professional environment? This is a great time to select neutral and muted colors. If you're the type to elaborate with your hands, you don't want your nail polish to stand out. These neutral and muted colors will show a professional side. If you want to go even more conservative, then choosing a clear polish is fine as well.
We all like to use some exciting colors at times too. An evening out or a party is a great time to experiment with some fun colors. It's a great time to throw on gold, silver or bronze polish, especially since these colors aren't typical daytime colors. If you're not sure which color to use, then decide based on your jewelry. Use a gold polish with gold nails and silver polish with silver nails.
Skin tone plays a huge factor in how a nail polish color will appear. If you're skin tone is on the lighter side, then lighter shades will look best on you. Light pinks and blue based nail polish are always a great option. Berry red and pale reds are also great options. To spice it up during the evening, go with an intensified color.
For darker skin tones, vibrant and deep colors always work. If you're on the olive side, colors like amber or gold can be a great option. If you're looking to go with a fun color, reds and purples will look great on darker skin. They create a very strong and bold look when combined with dark skin tones.
Another factor to consider when choosing your color is the time of the year. Nail polish is seasonal! Hot pink was a huge hit this summer, but it's not meant for the fall or winter. Dark and rich colors are a great option for the fall.
Next time you're overwhelmed with choosing from the many colors in the nail salon, think back on this article. Hopefully this overwhelming process will now be easier for you!
