Nail colornistas, help please - want to try a darker color

when I get my mani/pedi on Saturday. I always wear pale shades but I want to try something new.

I'm fair, blonde hair and 'cool' colors work best on me, if that matters. What will work?

Re: Nail colornistas, help please - want to try a darker color

what will work is you picking whatever dark shade you think is pretty! i think any color goes no matter your skin tone.

maybe you want to go more "red" than dark - that always looks so pretty when its fresh on.

but my fave darks are
wicked, devils food, chocolate kisses.

I LOVE the really dark reds/maroons this time of year. I am also fair w/light hair so those colors really pop against my skin tone. love it! Chat Icon Chat Icon

I just bought "oriental red" by Sally Hansen (Beyond Perfect).

it's a gorgeous dark red - almost like red wine.

I really wanted to try Sole Mate by Essie, but they were out of it Chat Icon

Sole Mate - it's a deep, deep purple...think grape jelly.

Wicked - really dark red...Chocolate Kisses - rich brown.

I just bought Wicked by Essie.

I went to the store to get Sole Mate, but when I saw it, it was a very dark purple. that's not for me. I'm sticking with the reds & maroons.

I just got a manicure and used Sole Mate. I am not that crazy about it. I think I like Wicked better.
