Whether you want a clean base for nail art or an overall minimal look, nude nail colors are your best friend. These hues are neutral, flesh-toned shades that provide a seamless transition from nail to skin explains celebrity manicurist Gina Edwards.
“When choosing a nude shade, there are tons of options. “A nude nail color is a neutral tone that has a brown, tan, pink, or white undertone,” says nail artist Tara Hayes. “There are many tones and opacities of nudes, both in the cool family and warm family. Usually, they can be anywhere from full coverage to a thin veil of color or a multitude of opacities.”
A good rule of thumb? Choose a color that’s close to your nail bed, skin tone, or any shade in between. Think of them like a foundation for your nails — they provide a hint of color for a your-nails-but-better finish.
