I would consider myself somewhat of a nailpolish aficionado. Each week I will be sending my top choices for the best colors and brands on the market your way – I’ve decided to start with something bright and vibrant being that it is officially the first day of Spring! Pink is the perfect color for any skin tone. It’s flattering for everyone (you just need to find your shade!) and I’m sure with these top 5 picks, you’ll find the one that’s perfect for you. 

1. French Affair by Essie

French Affair is one of those beautiful purply pinks that is flattering on every skin tone. Whenever I wear this color at least one person stops me and asks what color it is! 

2. Rosie Lee by Butter London

I LOVE this color! It’s so fun and the glitter isn’t as hard to remove as other glitter polishes. The picture really doesn’t do it justice, when it’s on your nails it looks like sparkly vinyl. It’s my favorite glitter polish.

3. Suzi’s Hungary Again by OPI

This is a beautiful true pink. It has a light sheen to it, which is not really noticeable on your nails, but it makes them look really shiny. When I want to wear a true pink color this is the one I always grab.

4. Punchy Pink by Essie

Punchy Pink is NEON there is no doubt about that! Like Bachelorette Bash this polish is matte but with a topcoat you can make it shiny, like it is shown in the swatch. I love this color in the summer!

5. Flashbulb Fuchsia by OPI

If you’re a fan of metallic nail polishes this is the one that you’re going to want. It’s a really beautiful fuchsia base with pink and blue shimmer in it. The picture makes it look more pink than anything, but it is a very multidimensional color when it is on the nail.
