Get the Blues ~ in a Good Way!

Part Two: Blue Fingernail Polish

Blue fingernail polish is something that reminds me of my new wave or punk rock days of long ago, so it's a bit amusing to me that it is such the rage now. I wore it a few months ago and even with my nails filed short, I didn't really think it looked very good, but I got many compliments from friends who loved it. Definitely make sure you wear dark blue polish on nails that are short (below fingertip length) and that your cuticles are in check and moisturized, as the blue polish will surely draw attention to your hands. Here are a few pretty blue polishes that caught my attention:

Chanel Blue Satin - This is available on various places on the web, but can be hard to find at Chanel counters. Some light makes it look almost black but it contains a pretty iridescence that is rather mesmerizing!

OPI Yoga-ta Get This Blue - The shade of this blue polish is ultra fabulous and I can see this as a ‘go to' toe color with strappy sandals for summer. That's the nice thing about nail polish colors that scream "look at me!" ~ if you aren't so excited about wearing them on your hands, your toes can be a fun way to experiment.

Napoleon Perdis Poolside - A long wearing, super high shine polish that will make you part of the trend in no time. Napoleon has a lot going on! Check out his website to see all his fine cosmetics.

Essie Aruba Blue - I love Essie polishes as they last and I don't have problems with sparse coverage like with some nail polishes. A quality line with many gorgeous shades to choose from, including a beautiful lighter blue called Aruba Blue.

Models, celebrities, and soccer moms are all sporting blue nail polish for spring, so if the mood strikes you, do give it a try. What do you have to lose? Nail polish remover and a few cotton balls will erase anything you aren't please with in the polish department. It's so easy to be blue for day, in a good way, with the cool new blue nail polishes!

Stay Beautiful,
