Bright Winter

Bright Winter nail colors

Nails can carry an accent, echo a neutral, or deliberately contrast with your clothes. There is more room to experiment away from the face.

Vivid pink, brilliant blue and clear emerald bring sharp color definition. Give a bright accent a quiet background instead of muting the accent itself.

Colors to begin with

Choose cool-neutral, medium, bright tones.

A practical rule

Compare the dried polish finish. A sheer, matte, pearl or glitter finish changes the apparent strength of the same color.

For this clearer palette, let a distinct accent stand beside a simple neutral.

Try it with what you own

Choose one item from your wardrobe or makeup kit. Compare it with a chip, then look at the actual item in neutral daylight. Keep notes about combinations you enjoy.
