Home Manicure Tip #3   Stick with orange-based polishes not blue-based

A blue-based polish can draw more attention to your blue veins. As well as the sallowness and aging of your skin. Stick to warm pinks, oranges and red based polishes. This will give your hands a more bright and youthful look. 

For Mature hands basically you can’t go wrong with Pearly or Metallic Whites for younger looking hands. Fair skin should go for Pearly or Bright pinks for a fresher look.

For Medium skin Pearly or Bright pinks as well as Orange based reds. For dark skin go for a Poppy Pinks, Neon Oranges or a Mint Green which looks great
