Pastels, metallic greys and sleek nudes are all going to be part of the gorgeous 2011 nail trends. Instead of going sheer this Spring, this year's picks stay rich and creamy - think smooth purples, bright blues, and yummy peach-tinged pinks. Bright, bold lacquers are making an appearance, and some optically intriguing shades of gun metal are popping up, too. So, get ready to totally transform your digits in 2011 - here is my guide to Spring 2011 nail polishes:
Neutral nudes:
Naked nails are in this spring and look refreshingly demure, yet provocative, but make sure your polish comes in a high-gloss formula so you don't end up looking like you have mannequin hands.
Baby Blues:
This pale blue shade is perfect for spring - think Robins egg or Tiffany's box!
Peachy pink:
Come spring, the new 'geige' nail is 'pale peach porcelain' cream wore in different ways: high shine for luxe perfection, shimmer shined with CND's 'Perfectly Bare Shimmer' (like lip gloss for nails) or satin finish to give it the Barbie look. Clean, bare and polished....best on a little length in an almond shape.
Lovely lavenders:
Purples look great with most skin tones. Go for smooth colours and high shine topcoat to make your nails stand out!
Gunmetal greys:
Don't forget those metallics! The future is now!
Edgy topcoats:
Give your polish an extra edge this spring with striking top coats. Get creatibe and try out a top coat that cracks over your color; (Black Shatter, OPI & Katy Perry collection) one that adds a slick, holographic shimmer; or one that adds a gilded layer of nude shimmer.
