CHOOSE YOUR COLOR (BASED ON SKIN TONE)

It is a widespread belief that skin tone needs to be considered before deciding upon a nail color but that's not always necessary as long as you confidently carry the color you choose. However, if you are conscious of your complexion and want to choose the color accordingly, here are a few suggestions.   

For fair skin : Almost every color suits this skin tone, whether its a dark shade or light one, a conventional color or one that is not so common. Soft as well as bright shades of pink, red and purple are suggested. Shades of blue and silver also look amazing. For a pale skin tone, shades of peach, brown and violet are suggested since deeper shades will look too prominent. Black orange and green would be for a bold style statement.

  For dark skin : Rich and dark shades look best on ladies with a darker skin. Darker shades of brown, violet and maroon are most suitable. However, if the darker skin tone is due to excessive tanning then warm and light shades of pink and brown would go well with your skin. Pearly white and peach would be suitable to give a natural look to your nails and golden would look excellent. To be a little experimental, you could try dark and light shades of yellow.


 For medium skin : There are a number of choices for ladies with medium skin tone. There are a number of colors that can be used. Bright orange, pink, red, yellow. To give a tanned look to your hands, use glittery polish and avoid dark shades of violet, green and blue.
 



I look forward to your suggestions and feedback.
