Picking out nail polish colour can be a very fun endeavor. However, with so many different colours and styles, it's easy to get overwhelmed. Luckily, there are ways to narrow it down. Factors like the season, your skin tone, and your personality can help you pick out the perfect polish for any occasion.
METHOD #1 CHOOSE BASED ON YOUR SKIN TONE
Go for nude shades if you have a light or medium skin tone. Nudes tend to work best for light-coloured or medium-coloured skin. Lighter skins benefit from a pinkish nude. Avoid beige if you have pale skin, as it could create a yellow undertone. If you have medium-coloured skin, you can go for either beige nudes or nudes with a pinkish undertone. Both will look great on your skin.
Choose a pink shade for any skin tone. If you love pink, you'll be happy to know it works for every skin tone. Pale skin tends to look great with any type of pink, from soft baby pinks to bright fuchsias. Peachy shades of pink look great on medium skin tones. Darker skin looks great with very bright, vibrant pinks.
Pick blue for any skin tone. Blue is a universal colour that looks great on pretty much any skin tone. If you have pale skin, played down blues like navy blues look great. Medium skin tones look good with sky blues or pastel blues. Vibrant shades, like cobalt blues, look good on darker skin.
Experiment with purple. Purple looks good on pretty much any skin tone, but different shades match better with different tones. If you have a pale skin, opt for lavenders. For medium skin, go for a pastel shade with hints of gray. For dark skin, both pastels and brighter shades of purple look great.
Deep purple polishes with berry undertones also work great if you have a darker complexion.
METHOD #2 SELECT YOUR POLISH BASED ON AN OCCASION
Opt for neutral colours for formal occasions. Neutral colours tend to work anywhere, so they're a safe option if you're wearing polish to work or a job interview. For an everyday look for professional occasions, you can opt for grays, whites, beiges, and light peachy shades
For example, wear a beige polish to a job interview.
Go with holiday-themed colours. You can wear the colours associated with a particular holiday for a fun, festive look. For example, wear red, glittery polish for Christmas or bright orange polish for Halloween
Choose a colour based on season. Some colours are more appropriate depending on the time of year. It can be fun to transition your choice of polish colour with each new season.
For the fall months, go for colours like grays, dark blues and purples, silvers, cherry shades, and burnt oranges
For the winter, try deep purples, light pinks, grays, and silvers
Add sparkles for a fun event. If you're going for a night out on the town, incorporate a little fun into your look. Add nail polish in sparkly shades or add a sparkly topcoat over a dark base. A little glitter and sparkle can make for a fun, carefree look.
For example, paint your nails black and then wait for them to dry. Once dry, add some glittery gold polish over the black to create a fun, sparkling look.
METHOD #3 PICK YOU POLISH BASED ON YOUR PERSONALITY
Use metallics to convey a wild personality. Maybe you see yourself as someone with a wild side who enjoys partying. Metallic colours, like metallic blacks, blues, and silvers, really give off a party vibe. These can be a great option to convey your fun loving personality.

Pick bright colors for an energetic look. A variety of bright colours can give off an energetic look. Pick oranges, greens, and yellows if you want to emulate energy. Bright pinks can also work for an energetic look.
If you want something both bold and energetic, go for a bright orange or green. These are somewhat unusual colours that can add a touch of quirkiness to your look.
If you want something very bright, you can even go with white polish.
Choose muted colours for a softer look. If you want to give off a serene demeanor, look for softer, more played down polishes. Shades like light purples and pinks have a feminine, soft feel. You can also try pastel shades of blue.
Show off sophistication with darker polish. If you want to look sophisticated, choose a deep polish with berry tones. A deep purple polish or a wine red polish can really reflect a classy personality.
Deep polishes look great when paired with former outfits, like evening gowns.
For example, try something like candy apple, true red, or an red-orange color.
