Neutrals

Every woman needs a trusted neutral nail polish for interviews and occasions when you want your nails to look kept – but not too OTT. Not all of us can be Rihanna all the time. A nail polish that gives a natural flush of colour always looks classic, so opt for rich taupes and nudes, or go for a playful candy pink that’ll suit most skin tones.

Medium: SinfulColours in Tan Lines, R35
Dark skinned: Essence I Love Trends in Nude Sweet Nude R39,95

Metallics

Add an instant touch of glam with these sparkly paints in a selection of different finishes for every occasion. Stick to classic gold or add glitter to your favourite nail polish for a quick glam update. Jewel tones with a metallic flair are especially striking and often complement most skin tones. We love this emerald green polish from Mina, and the bronze shimmery effect from the Sorbet shade that looks great on pretty much every skin tone. Try it as an accent nail for added WOW-factor.

Fair skin: Essence Out of Space Stories in 03, R42
Medium: Sorbet Pro Gel Effect in Desert Sand Storm, R110
Dark skinned: Essie in Ready to Boa, R134,95
All tones: Mina The Nail Polish in 177, R99,95
