Tips for Wearing Blue and Green Nails
Blue and green pigments can leave a tint behind, so never skip base coat, and remove polish with an acetone-based remover held on the nail rather than rubbed around the skin. Keep the colours looking glassy with a fresh top coat every few days, and moisturise daily, because cool-toned polish shows up dry cuticles more than neutrals do.
From a single leafy accent to a full confetti garden, blue and green prove that two shades are plenty when they get along this well. Choose your favourite design and enjoy the coolest colour combination in the nail world.
