True Spring

True Spring 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.

Golden yellow, leaf green and clear coral work well as an easy starting point. Warmth matters more than being the lightest or brightest person in the room.

Colors to begin with

Choose warm, medium-light, clear 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 palette, begin with moderate contrast and adjust the size of the accent.

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.
