Perfectly neutral on the mani front
A mani-pedi is my ultimate treat. But whether I am playing DIY stylist or enjoying a professional treatment, nothing ruins the effect like choosing the wrong color.
For my fingers, I'm especially particular. Nothing too loud or garish. But I'm not a fan of chalky pinks that aren't worth the dry time. After years of scouring the salon shelves for the perfect colors, here are my favorite neutrals:
OPI: Berlin There Done That (Germany collection)
Somewhere between a taupe and a gray, this hue is hardly a demure. A splash of color that will make sure people know you did your nails, it's an ideal shade for fall and winter.
OPI: Rosy Future (Soft shades collection)
This barely-there pink is fit for a blushing bride, with a glittery shimmer to make her inner party girl smile. This is the perfect color for someone who's not good about staying on top of chips, since will barely notice them.
OPI: Hawaiian Orchid (Soft shades collection)
Finally, a soft pink with personality. This shade offers a visible splash of color without overwhelming. It's ideal for showing off a summer tan.
An autumn winter greige with purple undertones. When I'm feeling bold, it goes on my fingers. The rest of the season, it tickles my toes.
What am I missing? What other shades are your go-to favs?
