Red nail polish is as classic as the little black dress in terms of style: you can wear it anytime, anywhere. And the big advantage: it’s timeless. Especially when you consider that a form of red nail polish was already used by women from different tribes around the world, hundreds of years ago. In ancient times, henna, beeswax and rose petals were regularly used. At the time, it was used to represent ancestry: red nail polish was only worn by the upper class. Luckily, everyone now has access to nail polish, even in different shades of red.
Red nail polish is seen as stylish, sexy and elegant, so what are you waiting for?
Different shades of red nail polish
Actress and style icon Audrey Hepburn famously said: “there is a shade of red for every woman”. And she couldn’t have said it better. From burgundy nail polish to coral red, from tomato red to ruby and everything in between. And have you ever considered red glitter nail polish and red matte nail polish? But how do you find out which colour nail polish in red suits you best? The answer is: look at the undertone of your skin tone. Bright colours such as orange-red look best with warm undertones. With a fairer undertone, colours such as deep red look best. These are loose guidelines, don’t be afraid to try all colours to see which colour you like best!
How do you use red nail polish?
The perfect red nail starts with taking care of your hands. File your nails with a glass file and make sure they are even. After filing, apply a base coat. This will help the red nail polish to stay in place better and prevents your nails from staining, due to the pigment in the paint. Once it’s dry, apply two thin coats of your favourite colour. Apply another coat of glitter nail polish if you’re really in a party mood. Finish with a top coat to protect your nail polish and make it last longer.
