Choosing the Right Shade of Blue Coffin Nails
Remember the big three while choosing a shade of blue for your nails – outfit, occasion, and skin tone.
These are the most important factors that will contribute to your new nail look being a hit or a flop! You don’t want to overdo it with bold and heavy designs for a low-key occasion or worse, have a really subtle look for a big day!
While thinking of your skin tone, talk to your nail technician and let her weigh in on your choice too. Remember to look at your skin’s undertones and choose the right blue that is flattering for your look!
How to Take Care of Your Coffin Nails
Coffin nails can be cumbersome to take care of, especially if you’re going for a longer nail plate. Apart from basic nail care which covers cuticle care, basic hygiene, and moisturizing, you can take care of your coffin nails by avoiding heavy handy work.
Coffin nails are sexy, bold, and can be sported by anyone. Some proper grooming, a stunning design, and a chic nail shape mean the compliments will be coming in non stop!
