Do you want to sport the latest nail trends with great style? Then how about not only choosing your favorite nail art tendencies but also following some basic principles to bring out the best of your manicure. Why not go back to the basics and look at the skin tone that can hugely influence the top look of your nails.

The skin tone is one of the factors that should serve as the basic guideline when opting for a special makeup. However if you want to improve your beauty skills, it is time to find out that to accentuate a certain nail polish tone it is necessary to take into account the shade of your complexion. Different skin tones match different shades, that's why it is essential to opt for those that complement your look. Here are the basic principles on how to match nail polish color and skin tones.

Fair Complexion

  • You're the lucky one, since you can sport many shades that are considered critical for other skin tones. Indeed fair complexions have the tendency to flash elegance and purity. The best way to find the perfect nail polish is to be guided after the basic features.

  • Those who belong to this category are often called winter types. Indeed the best shades that flatter the fairness are bright pink, the light and medium tones of purple, red. Avoid dark and profound tints unless you are a Goth style fan or wish to wear an eye-popping nail art style. We should also include in the no-no color group the dark blue, yellow, green and also gold.

    Medium Skin Tone

  • This 'in-between' tone can pull off some stylish nail art masterpieces by applying nail polishes that tend towards the metallic shades.

  • Pile up some bottles of vibrant orange, pink and blue nail polish. These must serve as the no.1 choice when you want to polish to impress.

  • Silver and also light blue as well as their metallic version is perfectly emphasizing your neutral skin tones. Ditch out or at least neglect for a while shades as dark purple, red or navy blue.

  • Skim through the wide selection of shade as light blue, pink or purple. Also include in your preferences the light brown and chocolate. Tanned skin is often associated with warm colors, both makeup and nail polish should follow this principle.

  • Always take into account that the contrastive colors will bring out the most of your complexion. That's why skip colors as gold and all its shades, since it might blend into the overall image without having any visible effect.


    • Dark Complexion

  • When it comes of nail polish, those who have dark complexion should think on a darker shade scale. These would efficiently emphasize their beautiful skin tones. Reds and dark greens as well as chocolate brown are the top notch shades, that should appear among the nail art essentials of dark skin toned people.

  • Gold seems to be the best choice you can make when it comes of a voguish nail polish. The colors you should avoid are orange, white and even silver. These are ideal for the fair tone but inappropriate for you.
