Choose colors that reflect the season. A bright orange or purple will be perfect for summer days. If you're not sure what colors would look best on your nails, check out some popular colors on Nails Blaze and see which ones catch your eye!
Try out an animal print design on the one hand (like leopard print ). This is a great way to add some extra flair to an otherwise simple manicure!
Try a neon or pastel color to stand out in the crowd and add some extra flare to your outfit.
Keep your nails simple. Don't overdo it with too many colors or patterns—it will look messy!
If you want to create sparkly glittery designs for an extra pop, use a white base underneath your nail polish.
