is there any colour nail polish which will flatter my rather wintery bluey/whitey feet??

just got feet out to survey the winter damage. they are looking rather blue and not terribly appealing. have tried a toenail each of red, orange, navy, and that grey/brown chanel one from last year. all seem to make the feet look even less nice.

any ideas on colours until my feet get a bit more sunkissed?

(i did ponder a bit of fake tan but thought it might look a bit odd since the rest of me is equally wintery hued)

Hot pink? I too have blueish feet most of the time and that seems to do the job. Or maybe a pale pink, in a warm rather than a blue tone, to make them seem less pale.

I too have blue feet, have just painted my toes a lovely orangey coral colour. Agree with pp that hot pink is a good colour, I used that a lot last summer.

ok, down to the chemist for a bottle of pink if the sun is out again tomorrow, thank you!

Let us know if it works! I'm trying a fairly bright (you could say neon) orange ? Chancery Lane by Nails Inc. Disappointingly, doesn't really brighten my feet up much but I love it so I don't care

Grape Sorbet by Rimmel is my favourite toe pink, alway perks up my feet in spring, put it on for the first time this year yesterday and cheered me up no end. My fet are very white.

I'm very pale skinned and the Chanel Particulière (grey/brown) from last year is very flattering, I think. My DD (6), who has a very similar skin tone to mine, likes it too!

I tried a mushroom colour on my toes.

Gave me autopsy feet.

Hot pink is the way to go I agree - Rimmel Maxi brush in Urban Purple is lush :) and cheap

Yep, hot pink or coral gets my vote. I've still got quite a wintery shade on but will be making the switch this week!

Just fake tan the bit that shows
