Recommend me a neutral nail varnish shade!

[Tatlerer]

Want to paint my nails for an upcoming wedding- Shellac/similar wreck my flimsy nails for a few weeks after it comes off and I don't plump for bright colours usually as I chip to high heaven.
I'm wearing navy so was thinking a pinky neutral? Any recommendations? X

Maybe Sally Hansen High Impact Nail Polish in Shall we Dance ?

I love Mavala polishes.

I find they are the most chip proof, especially with a top coat.

My favourite neutrals are Rose Dust 164 and Rose Shell 162.

It took me ages to find good neutrals and these are the best!

I was a devotee to OPI for years then one day I was reminiscing about the first ever time my nails were painted. It was 1971 and my mother painted them navy by mavala.

I bought some mavala and haven't looked back. I love mavala, beautiful colours and very long lasting.

Essie Mademoiselle is my favourite, it was recommended by a nail technician and she was right.

It's not pink but in case you fancied something else, this is my favourite ever neutral.

I love Mavala.
Riga is my favourite.
And Rosa, but that's brighter.

Arosa.

Essie mademoiselle for me too. Recommended years ago before you could even buy in U.K. and I bought some in the US and have been using it for about 15 years!

Essie ballet slippers is my go to pinky neutral - I have it on right now.

You guys are the best! Thank you!!

Essie Fiji is pretty but I'd go for gel polish for true no chip for a special occasion.

Essie ballet slippers is my go to pinky neutral - I have it on right now.

Hmmm I found it went really patchy on me. I love the Mavala ones though.

Essie, definitely, but they make a lot of neutrals and nudes and you need to decide which looks good against your skin. I have Vanity Fairest.

A darker neutral I like is No7 Rose Mocha or pale gold Golden Sands (both 'gel finish' and pretty hardwearing with a Sally Hansen base and top coat).

Rose dust is beautiful and looks beige in some lights, pink in others and sparkly in the sunshine

Christian Dior nail glow is fab. It's clear but has a pinky tone that makes your nails look like a French manicure and you don't notice it wearing off

I love Shellac romantique but it's hard to find a salon that uses it.

Where do you get Mavala from? Their website doesn't seem to be a shop.

Oooh i love mavala. No colour recommendations as i pretty much only wear red. Moscow, should you be interested.

I get mine in john lewis.
