I DO Nails

The look for wedding day nail polish is as individual as the bride herself! 82% (yes I really did the math) of BBP Brides in 2009 have opted for a very neutral nail.
Think "S*heer Pink" as seen above, by R*evlon.

But you might want to think of something else...................

Maybe "H*oneymoon Sweet" by O*PI?

"N*ot Just a Pretty Face" by E*ssie?

Or also by E*ssie, the slightly more blush toned "L*uscious Lips"?

For brides who seek something pale and conservatively "bridal", there IS a nail look for the Big Day that still has a definite nod to high fashion and current trend. The matte trend in nail polish is going to be HUGE this fall but can be a little harder to wear in a pale nail tone, it can look a bit like you've just slapped basecoat on your nails and forgotten the polish. You might try a bit of all best worlds a bit of matte and a bit of gloss still paying attention to the pale nail.

E*ssie (the home of great polish) makes a fabulous gloss to matte product. You can try the matte look without the total commitment of an entire bottle of matte (just in case it's not for you!) In the nail diagram above this photo, E*ssie suggests using a white tip, and a pale pink nail. Sounds like a rather traditional French Polish, right? Not quite. Try the updated look with the tip as well as the moon of the nail bed top polished with MATTE. It gives the entire nail a really current look---- and of course you have the matte polish to update every other color you own.

For those who want COLOR on their nails, some of our faves are:

the O*PI Classic, "I'm N*ot Really a Waitress"
L*ippmann, "D*aytripper"
or

N*ars----- "O*rgasm". Hey......... I'm just reading the label! It is a yummy color.

Or a few of our brides have gone all out glam with a bright bold color! It is ALL your choice!

The best thing is that nail polish is inexpensive and easily changed. Start early, experiment and you are sure to find your own personal best bridal nail look!
