Introduction to matching methods of various nail polish
1. Red series
Red is the most attractive color for women, mainly including purple plum, wine red, tomato red, rose red, etc., also known as the “universal color” nail polish, which will make your hands look slender and white. This is because the red color is darker, which can cover up the messy marks on the nails and make the skin tone fairer. However, the red color scheme still needs to be determined based on its social environment to determine its suitability for use. If you are an office worker, this color appears to lack seriousness and be too seductive. On the contrary, if going to a party, the red color perfectly matches the lively atmosphere. From a personality perspective, red is more suitable for sexy and passionate women. The shape of the nails is also important, and oval or square nails are most suitable for red tones.
The matching of red nail polish also needs to be extremely careful, otherwise it may damage your entire look. The simplest pairing method is to use a red color scheme when wearing black. Any black item or full body black can perfectly match this color scheme. Blue jeans are also acceptable, but it’s best to use dark blue; Gray or black accessories are also good, such as scarves; Silver earrings are good, but diamond or pearl earrings are the best match for red nail polish; In some cases, white can also be matched with red nail polish, but the effect is not as good as black, and it is better not to be white all over the body. A single white coat is quite good.
2. Pink series
Pink nail polish is usually a popular color, such as azalea powder, dawn powder, health powder, geranium powder and camellia powder. Pink exudes a romantic atmosphere and is the favorite of young girls. This color scheme that is close to skin tone will make people appear natural and not exaggerated, and can be boldly used. It is worth noting that because the pink color is very light, the roughness and unevenness of the nails are easily visible, so the surface of the nails should be smoothed out to give them a glossy feeling before applying.
Pink nail polish has the strongest matching ability. It is suitable for any slim and delicate design. The light pink color shows delicate pearl light, and then it can be matched with delicate, transparent and lovely jewelry to show the romantic style!
3. Green series
Dark green is only suitable for girls with short and cool nails. It is rich in ethnic characteristics. If you dress in an exotic style, we recommend using this color. Because the green color is darker and can easily make the skin dull, it is best to match the clothing when using it, preferably wearing fur or brightly colored tops. If the nails are too long or show an unhealthy feeling, it is recommended to use bright green, especially bright green with a pearl luster, which will make the fingers appear brighter. Due to the tendency of bright green to turn yellow, an additional layer of nail polish should be applied to the nails.
4. Black series
Usually, people artificially match black with almost all colors. Indeed, this is mostly true for clothes and shoes, but black nail polish is not versatile. When you wear gold and silver, black nail polish is the best choice. Actually, it’s just a simple comparison method. The rest of the place is very eye-catching, pressing the color with your fingertips can make you appear much more calm. A simple pairing can choose golden flat shoes, white or dark brown tops, and black tight jeans. The colors of other accessories can be freely chosen. Black nail polish can form a strong contrast with any gold on the body, and can set off the gold, especially shiny.
5. Sapphire Blue
Sapphire is a very fashionable color that many celebrities love. It matches well with black clothes; Paired with jewelry and clothing of the same color scheme, the effect will be even better. However, it is better to choose a blue nail polish with a slightly darker color than the clothes; Paired with gold is also very good, with gold headwear, earrings, etc; Paired with silver, it stands out and is a great choice for both clothing and accessories; Not to mention white, any style of white and blue nails can be eye-catching!
6. Brown series
In today’s era of popular nude makeup, brown has undoubtedly become the favorite of many nude makeup masters. Many times, people like to refer to brown as earth color or nude color, mainly including chocolate, color, and amber peach. Like sapphire blue, brown is a relatively easy to match color. It’s not as dark as black, nor as eye-catching as other bright colors. Personally, nail polish should not dominate, but become the ornament of the whole body. Paired with black clothes, like sapphire blue, it is more harmonious, but compared to sapphire blue, it gives a more stable feeling; Paired with brown clothing, although not dazzling, it exudes a sense of elegance; Paired well with gold and silver tones; It will be dark with gray. If you wear gray, you’d better change the color of nail polish.
7. Metallic color
There are many types of metallic colors, which have a strong sense of the future and can better express the urban sense than eye colors and makeup of the same color. Because these metallic nail polish is added with pearl powder, it is easy to faint. To have a beautiful effect, the application order is very important. Generally, it needs to be applied twice. The first coat can be applied to the right side, then to the middle, and finally to the left side; The direction of the second pass is opposite to that of the first pass.
8. Purple series
Purple can make people feel romantic, yet not lacking in dignity, and can express a person’s noble temperament, but there are also some purple that can make people feel aloof. A brighter purple color can make people feel romantic and dreamy, such as lilac, orchid purple, and light lilac, which are some of the more outstanding purple colors in the purple series.
9. Transparent color scheme
Transparent nail polish gives people a pure, refreshing and natural feeling. If you don’t like too much decoration, but you want your nails to look brighter and cleaner, then you should undoubtedly choose transparent gel nail polish or transparent phototherapy nail.
