What nail polish colours are your favourite for the vacations? Are you the once-in-a-blue-moon manicure particular person, an everyday on the salon, or a DIY skilled? (Or are you a fan of fakes, whether or not stickers or stick-on nails? There are surprisingly good ones out proper now…)
(You probably have career-related vacation events — do you are feeling constrained in any respect in your nail polish selections?)
Listed here are among the ones I am contemplating as we head into the season…
A Nice Crimson Nail Polish (Not Gel)
I’ve heard nice issues about three choices, two of them actually reasonably priced: OPI’s Not Actually a Waitress, OPI’s Large Apple Crimson, and Loubutin’s polish that’s supposedly the identical pink as their sneakers. (It is $50, although!)
(Oooh: Large Apple Crimson additionally is available in a press-on nails set.)
Sparkly, Festive Polish
Readers turned me on to Mooncat, they usually all look completely beautiful. (Know your workplace earlier than sporting these to work!)
The pictured one, Millenia, is not notably holidayish, however I feel it is beautiful. (Forbidden Cove would maybe be nice if you wish to keep within the pink household, and Drown my Demons seems enjoyable in the event you’d want to go inexperienced. I’m additionally drooling over Freshly Bitten.)
If you’d like a very reflective sparkle, I’ve heard nice issues about KB Shimmer.
Excellent Press-On Nails
I knew these existed, clearly, however I did not notice that they had been good till I noticed an Instagram with AOC, I consider, speaking about how she favored utilizing press-on nails as a result of they had been fast and simple, and you possibly can file them to the dimensions and form you wished. As somebody who vastly prefers brief nails, that sounded good — and but the units I’ve purchased have stayed in my linen closet for each vacation as a result of I simply by no means appear to have the time.
I’ve heard nice issues about OPI’s press-on nails, however I perceive Olive & June’s is the best to take away — they usually have this actually fairly sparkly, ombre set (pictured) that appears beautiful. I’m sorely tempted, particularly for $10. One other enjoyable possibility: this reverse French manicure, with pink sparkles on the guidelines, from Glamnetic.
Nail Stickers for the Holidays
There are such a lot of enjoyable ones right here! I feel my final favorites are the pictured ones from Dashing Diva (accessible at Goal), that are a bit on the subdued aspect of cutesy — however if you wish to go all in, take a look at this pink and inexperienced set, Santa’s Helper, Ho Honey (lol), or this white and pink set.
(Man, there’s much more at Ulta – this plaid one is beautiful, and this pale pink one may be very delicate till you rise up shut.)
A Darker, Moodier Crimson
Feeling like a moody teenager as you consider going through your “bizarre uncles” over the vacation season? Chanel’s Vamp has at all times been a favourite of mine, and I feel the development is coming again — but it surely’s now referred to as Rouge Noir.
(I am instructed Essie’s Depraved is an effective dupe… and do take a look at Mooncat’s “Bottled Rage.”)
That are your favorites for the vacation season, readers? Would any of those choices be inappropriate at your workplace?
