The colours listed below are hella-vibey and rival the look of a salon-quality manicure.
Tempting? So kick the damage and time that your salon gel manicure requires and take a look at the luxe-looking nail polish colours for that fab self-manicure at home.
Nail Colours That Channel Your Inner Diva
Milky Nude
This subdued hue is like an IG filter for your nails. Extend the trending colour from your clothes to your nails. This barely-there colour is just one of the many shades that would make for a perfectly modish base. It is super popular RN and is a perf colour to wear when you need a little something to clean up the hands without having to make it pop. The colour is warm but great for summers as well as monsoons and it will go with almost every outfit you have planned.
Bubblegum Blush
This creeps right up to that fine line between sickly sweet and just pink enough. The blush pink nail look is still on the radar for summer 2022 and we’re fully obsessed! Gonna be wearing it all through the season. It’s a subtle splash of colour that’s one of the easiest to pull off. Another highlight is that you can easily match this shade with your accessories, for example, your shoes or bag. Ready to flaunt those blush nails for your next brunch date?
Poppy Yellow
The sunlight hits different with a golden-yellow lacquer. If you’re ready to really make a statement, why not reach for a bold neon hue. This happy yellow hue is legit a summer dream and we’re ready to bring this sunshiny, cheerful colour into our lives. A little creativity with your yellow nail paint goes a long way and this manicure is proof.
Tangerine
There’s nothing quite like a citrus-inspired manicure for summers. For a peek summer look, call on this season’s hottest colour. A bold orange will make you stand out from the crowd. Whether you’re wearing basic colours like black, white, or nude — your orange nails will do all of the talking this summer.
Rusty Red
This isn’t a regular red polish – it’s a cool red polish. Red nails are always a good idea and this one is proof. A little cheerful but also sophisticated; It’s part classic, part cool. 2022 is going to be very red. But it’s not just red we’re predicting will take off – it’s also the orange-tinted coral iterations that will gain popularity this season. The colour appears bold when at times, and quite sombre at other times.
Split Pea
Bring nature indoors with this fresh green polish. Here’s what we’ve been building toward – moss green. It’s definitely one of the most untraditional shades of green, but who says a manicure has to be traditional? It’s striking and unexpected. So in other words, it’s basically made for the gram. Go crazy and add details that make you stand out and feel good about yourself!
Dusty Blue
This colour will give you some vacay vibes in the best possible way. While an electric navy is sure to pop with any outfit, a muted tone like this one is the perfect cross between blue and purple. The shade, in particular, is oh-so-chic!
Purple
The ’90s-inspired shade won’t be going away anytime soon. A bright purple is so pretty when paired with your fave beige top. Like blue and orange, you can play with the shades here – think everything between pastels to an almost-fluorescent purple.
They are cool, not kitschy.
