Teen Beauty: My 5 Favorite Nail Colors for Spring.

I change my nail polish just about as many times as I change my clothes. Not only am I fickle, there is an infinite amount of nail colors to choose from that I like to try them all. My favorite brand is probably OPI, and Sephora by OPI. They last a long time (when I let them), dry in a reasonable amount of time and are always current and on trend.

These are my five favorite nail colors for spring.

  1. Sparkle Me Silver, Sephora by OPI
    Sparkle Me Silver is an amazing finishing touch for all your OPI spring must haves. To use this brilliant top coat you can apply to bare nails for a sheer effect or use it to embellish your perfect nail color. I love this Nail polish because it adds shimmer and shine to all colors and gives your color that unique touch its been waiting for.
  2. Teal We Meet Again, Sephora by OPI
    Teal We Meet Again is a dramatic color that illuminates just as the sun shines down on the carbine sea. This blue-green color is a must have for summer for when the sun shines, it reveals a shimmer glow that is hard to resist. I love this gorgeous color especially for my toes and  it acts as the perfect accessory to every outfit.
  3. I Think In Pink, OPI
    I Think In Pink and I Think I Love This Pop of Pink is an innocent color that captures the sensational lighter shade of pink. This polish is perfect for spring and truly defines the universal color that is pink. My favorite color is pink and  this polish truly shows why I love it so much. Its a fun and flirty color that should be on everyone's list for spring.
  4. Breathe Life, OPI
    Breathe Life is a nail polish that was created exclusively to help the Lung Cancer Foundation of America. When you purchase this color you are helping to find a cure for lung cancer. This beautiful color truly represents the joy of giving and helping. “Lung cancer has stopped our breathing long enough. lets cure it.”
  5. Significant Other Color, OPI
    This is a beautiful shimmer pink lilac shade with glints of mint in it. Wow - it is an amazing nail color! It brightens your whole wardrobe and gives your look just what it needs to sparkle. The hint of green goes hand and hand with the lilac color and simply is a match made in heaven color combination. I would definitely use this color for the spring, summer, and any special occasion.

The Perfect Earth Day Manicure!

If you are trying to get into the spirit of Earth Day by way of going green, how about doing it in a fun and unique way? I'm talking about coloring your nails in a pretty green nail polish shade. My favorite is this one:

Sephora by OPI Leaf Him at the Altar

This exclusive to Sephora polish is a beautiful vine green shade in a metallic finish. It is so pretty on and I plan on using it tonight (better late then never) as my little extra way of going green.

Leaf Him at the Altar, as well as the rest of the Sephora by OPI shades, are free of DBP, toluene, and formaldehyde.

To see it on nails, check it out on Michelle from All Lacquered Up, as she is always my nail polish go to resource.

Ravishing Reds from butter LONDON.

Tis the month for reds. Between it being the month of love with Valentine's Day and heart awareness month, the color on my mind is red. These reds from butter LONDON are nothing short of ravishing - and I have one of them on my toes right now.

These are my favorite reds:

 

Out of the five, I must say that La Moss* - a vampy, full of red wine shade, and Chancer*- a crimson red with crushed red glitter, are my favorite of them all. La Moss is beautifully polished on my toes right now, while my daughter chose Chancer for her Valentine's Day manicure.

Each of the butter LONDON lacquers are "3 Free", wear beautifully and sell for $14 each. Look for them at fine salons and online at butterlondon.com.
