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 professional? (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 below 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 purple 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, and so they all look completely attractive. (Know your workplace earlier than carrying these to work!)
The pictured one, Millenia, is not significantly holidayish, however I feel it is attractive. (Forbidden Cove would maybe be nice if you wish to keep within the purple household, and Drown my Demons appears to be like enjoyable when you’d desire to go inexperienced. I’m additionally drooling over Freshly Bitten.)
If you need 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 have been good till I noticed an Instagram with AOC, I imagine, speaking about how she preferred utilizing press-on nails as a result of they have been fast and straightforward, and you might file them to the scale and form you needed. As somebody who vastly prefers quick 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 simplest to take away — and so they have this actually fairly sparkly, ombre set (pictured) that appears attractive. I’m sorely tempted, particularly for $10. One other enjoyable possibility: this reverse French manicure, with purple 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, try this purple 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 attractive, and this pale pink one could be very refined till you stand up shut.)
A Darker, Moodier Crimson
Feeling like a moody teenager as you concentrate on dealing with your “bizarre uncles” over the vacation season? Chanel’s Vamp has all the time been a favourite of mine, and I feel the pattern is coming again — however it’s now referred to as Rouge Noir.
(I am instructed Essie’s Depraved is an effective dupe… and do try Mooncat’s “Bottled Rage.”)
That are your favorites for the vacation season, readers? Would any of those choices be inappropriate at your workplace?
