Porcelain/Light Skin Complexion

For porcelain or light skin complexions, the best shades we found are sheer or very light pink shades. These shades work very well with this skin tone as this lighter, flesh-tone color compliments the skin while still adding a hint of pink to the nail. For a creamier, slightly more prominent pink, try “Mod about you” by OPI. For a shade with a sheer, more natural looking coverage, reach for OPI’s “Bubble Bath.”

Olive/Medium Skin Tone

For this skin tone, we found that pink shades with a darker hue or peachy undertone work best. “Mimosas for Mr. and Mrs.” by OPI is one of the best shades we found. This tinged nude dries sheer and is the perfect shade for any bride who wants a natural look for her wedding day. The sheer beige provides just enough contrast to look elegant yet natural. For a brighter pop of pink, try Essie’s “Fiji.” This creamy light pink works beautifully against the contrast of olive or medium skin.

Tan/Dark Skin Tone

For tan or darker skin tones, the shades that work best are a dusty rose or darker beige shade. “Jade Rose” by Chanel is a beautiful sheer color that accentuates darker skin tones while still bringing a tinge of pink to the nail. For a brighter, but more neutral tone try, “Sand Tropez” by Essie. This beautiful shade dries a creamy beige and is the perfect nude for anyone with a darker complexion.

No matter what your skin tone is, the right shade for you is never out of reach. With hundreds of shades to choose from, your manicurist should have no problem helping you find the perfect color for your big day.
