The perfect nude nail varnish?

16 replies

Can anyone recommend a lovely nail varnish that will meet my list of reqs? I've been searching but failing so far.

I'm looking for one that is:

  • a similar colour to my real nail bed - so, quite pink
  • opaque to cover a dodgy toenail with some discoloration
  • not too pale - ideally I want it to be similar in shade to my skin or just a bit darker
  • not beige

The one in the photo is Lait Fraisee from Nailberry and it is much too pale and milky (should have known from the name!)

Any ideas?

Perhaps Essie's Ballet Slippers?

Thanks Macavity but ballet slippers doesn't have the colour density I'm looking for, I don't think. I'll look again, though.

Nude. That was meant to say. Not muse!

Essie Topless and Barefoot is an opaque nude/pink. Essie Fiji is a really pretty pale pink with more coverage than Ballet Slippers
