According to a professional Lagos based make-up artist "Nail polish is a good way to experiment when it comes to fashion and style without breaking the bank. It is affordable, fun and timeless. Before you experiment with nail polish, be sure that your nails are in a good health condition. Just like the old saying goes, 'You can always tell a lady from her hands', so, make sure you moisturize, clean and make sure nails are trimmed and filed. Because we have a rainbow of colour, choosing the right nail polish can be confusing.
Useful Tips:
Chose your nail polish according to your skin tones. If you have fair skin with pink undertones, try cherry reds, tangerines and dark blue. Medium skin: deep burgundy, all kinds of pastel shades, and purple, peach, white or wine colours. Medium dark: Light pinks, orange reds, browns, gold. Dark Skin: You can wear deep rich shades excerpt dark brown which can make nails appear dull e.g strong reds, silvers, deep plums,
For business meetings stick to pale, neutral colours that keeps attention on the conversation and not on your hands.
On a date or night with the girls, go for more daring looks with bright colour and don't be afraid to add glitters. For an evening or dinner event, go for more dark colours, preferably, one that marches your colour or outfit.
