Now that that summertime is fast approaching, now is the perfect time to sport a new manicure or pedicure. This season the hottest colors in nail lacquers also seem to be the brightest, especially since neon’s are a huge trend on nails and lips on the runway this season. So, grab your sunglasses and get set for bright, bold and beautiful summer!
Zoya's Indigo Hot Coral is great or give the orangey-coral, Heidi, a try. Better yet, try their La-Di-Da sampler for ultra-bright and neon colors. Hot pink is one color that is flying off salon and department store shelves! La Paz-itively Hot and Strawberry Margarita (which is a more crisp watermelon shade) by OPI are great bright pinks to go with. Dior’s Grenade Paprika, which is a mid tone pink with silver shimmer, their Portobello and butter LONDON's London Ungerground are also great bright shades. Also try Flirty fuchsia by essie.
For Navy blues keep it dark, sexy and clean for the summer. OPI Russian Navy is one of the best navy colors to try. Also try butter LONDON’s Big Smoke and essie’s aruba blue.
Other colors to wear this summer: Teals and turquoises carry reminders of perfect sparkling seawater, while standard yellows (funky limelight by essie), oranges (Chanel Orange Fizz), reds, and purples even make their mark in the sun.
If you are not a color lover, a French Manicure is always the safest bet during summer months and always looks fresh. OPI Hearts and Tarts is a great shade for this. Also to spice it up, try mixing and matching French fingers or toenails with hot pinks and blues. If you are feeling creative try the runway look with a reverse French tip (I tried this and got many compliments!)
