Your skin tone tells you what nail polish color to pick.Nail polish color is an accessory. It has to complement your complexion. But finding the perfect nail color for your skin tone can be a daunting task. With so many shades and finishes to choose from, choosing a nail polish color isn’t easy. So how can you find the best nail polish colors for you? Firstly, consider the tone of your skin – the lightness or darkness level. Matching your nail color to your skin tone can make you look stunning. Nail color should complement your skin tone. You might have seen shades that trend in fashionable outlook. Take into considerations that not all colors that are “on trend” will match your complexion. Different nail colors resemble different skin tones (Starting from lighter colors to darkest). Before you move further and choose a nail color for your nails, you must know the tone of your skin. Here are the pro- tips from the nail grooming guide that will help you choose the right color every time.
BEST SHADES FOR DIFFERENT TYPES OF SKIN TONE
Pale or Light Skin Tone
A pale complexion needs nail colors that will enhance the skin tone. It is best regarded as a cool skin tone. Better to select the nail colors pink or blue pastels but avoid dark shade of colors that will create an unwanted contrast. This type of skin tone suits perfectly pastels and nudes shades.
Fair Skin Tone
Woman with a fair skin tone has a large variety of nail color options since their complexion can apply lots of shades. Nail colors you should be avoiding are bright red or orange-red and yellow-based shades as these colors can suppress a fair complexion. If you rather prefer to apply a sophisticated color you must avoid the green and orange shades.
Tanned Skin Tone
The best nail color to apply for tanned tone skin is the bright color as it can highlight your complexion than using a neutral shade of colors similar to your skin tone. Bright shades of pink, purple and blue are highly recommended. This type of skin tone is complemented by yellow undertone shades. It is also best to avoid golden nail color polish.
Medium or Olive Skin Tone
The perfect nail color for this skin tone can match either gold or peach. It can also go best with a warm and yellow undertone and look inclined with metallic shades of silver and blue. Avoid the red, darker purple and navy blue shade.
Dark Skin Tone
For dark skin, you may prefer deep shades like mocha, maroons, dark red or dark green. Nail Colors like a lighter shade of chocolate brown tend to look best too. Don’t give preference to brighter shades such as white, silver, orange and anything too pinkish colors for it will make dark skin seem darker, dull and aged.
Now you are wondering which is the best brand to choose a nail polish product. Here, I can recommend to you-
With a wide range of shades available inNykaa stores or outlets, it is very difficult to choose the right color shade. There are two main strategies we use when shopping for nail polish (or picking a color at the nail store). You’re either the person who leaves the store with a new bottle and 10 fingers painted with different hues, or you grab the first polish name you recognize. It is very difficult to find a shade you love, especially when each brand offers endless color options.
These tips are beneficial to select the perfect nail color. So it’s always up to you to do experimenting then trust your eyes and gut feeling to choose the best shades for you. Enjoy!

Like a lipstick I think it’s also important to take into account your skin tone while choosing a nail paint. I think nude shades are the best bet when in doubt. They look classy.
