We Discovered The Top Neutral Nail Colors For Every Skin Tone

55

I’m not sure I’ve ever had a manicure with a neutral nail color, and that’s a confession I’m not proud of. Since I have a weakness for bright colors and patterns, I prefer wearing bright, interesting nail polish choices over going au naturel. Furthermore, I am always worried that my hands and/or nails will look washed out and dull if I choose a neutral hue because I never know which neutral shade would actually look nice on my skin tone.

If you’re afraid of neutral nail colors because you think they’ll look bad on you, New York City celebrity manicurist Julie Kandalec, owner of JK Nail Artelier, is here to calm your nerves with advice on how to choose the best neutral shades for your skin tone.

The ultimate guide to bare-nailed polish

If you want an opaque color, Kandalec says you shouldn’t try to get one that exactly matches your skin tone. “That will make you look like a mannequin,” she warns. Choose a hue that is obviously lighter or darker than your natural complexion. Sally Hansen’s light pink in their at-home gel nail polish kit is an excellent option for people who want to test a hue that will look well on everyone.

However, if you’re looking for a sheer shade, it’s ideal if the color is closer to your natural skin tone. Use the internet to find a color sample, Kandalec advises. To see how the product looks on various skin tones, try searching “brand name + shade name + swatch” (or “+ dupe,” which also works).

When trying to find the perfect neutral nail color for your skin tone, it’s important to avoid making these common mistakes: selecting a shade that is too ashy or too taupe. As Kandalec puts it, “I generally prefer tones that have a bit more of a peachy, warmer undertone,” meaning that they are easier to wear and more universally pleasing. Yet another slip-up? neglecting to occasionally provide a shine or sparkle.
