SEARCHAllure magazine recommends four shades that go well with any summer sandal.
Allure magazine, in it's June 2012 issue, recommended the following four shades, which go well with any summer sandal:
1. Red-Orange (Essie's Bazooka)
2. Shimmering Aqua
3. Electric Purple
4. Bronze
On a separate note, advise clients to stay away from these three polishes:
1. Pale yellow: It can make nails look stained.
2. Mauve: If it's too similar to a client's skin tone, it can make them look corpse-like, manicurist Jin Soon Choi told Allure. Recommend a shade of pink or purple with higher contrast.
3. Just Glitter:Allure says it's like borrowing a teenager's miniskirt. It doesn't make you look any younger, but it will look cheesy.
