While I love a good coral manicure, if you’re looking for something a little less mainstream but just as on-trend, try any one of these seven shades.
Lavender
The light pastel color is predicted to be one of the biggest beauty trends of 2019 for hair, but if you’re not feeling that experimental with your locks, why not try it out on your nails first?
Create the look with:
True Yellow
Coral a little too soft for you? Then try a more eye-catching tone, like an ultra-saturated yellow. Some may say this color should be reserved for the warmer summer months, but we believe it has no seasonal restraints.
Create the look with:
Nude
As a self-admitted nudist (with my color palette, that is), this nearly-sheer color is perfect for fellow minimalists. It’s a popular color of choice and is the secret to hiding chips.
Create the look with:
White
The effect of white nail polish is highly underrated. Use a soft eggshell for a modest look, or create a “wow” factor with a true-toned white.
Create the look with:
Tangerine
Coral is basically an underplayed orange hue. Try tangerine for something a little more electrifying.
Create the look with:
Periwinkle
Let’s be real for a second: As warm and inviting as coral may be, it feels summer-y. For something more seasonally in-tune, opt for a toned down cool toned color, like periwinkle.
Create the look with:
Ultraviolet
We think Pantone’s 2018 pick deserves an encore performance. It was one of their best picks in years thanks to its energetic vibe and ability to amp up even the most basic of manis.
