Collection: Red Nail Polish

Red nail polish from Herome

Red nail polish is as much of a style classic as the little black dress: you can wear it anytime, anywhere. And the big advantage: it is timeless. Especially when you consider that a form of red nail polish was used long before Christ by women from various tribes around the world. In ancient times, henna, beeswax and rose petals were used extensively. The big similarity is that at that time it was used to represent descent: red nail polish was only worn by the upper class. How different it is now, where fortunately everyone has access to nail polish, even in different shades of red. Because red nail polish is now seen as stylish, sexy and elegant. And we all want to be that way!

Different shades of red nail polish

It is a famous statement by actress and style icon Audrey Hepburn: “There is a shade of red for every woman”. And that's right. From burgundy red nail polish to coral red, from tomato red to ruby ​​and everything in between. Red glitter nail polish and red matte nail polish are now also popular. But how do you find out which color nail polish in red suits you best? The answer is: look at the undertone of your skin color. Bright colors look best with warm undertones – usually dark skin. You can then look at shades such as orange-red. Colors such as deep red look best with a cold undertone – usually fair skin. If you have a mixed undertone, you can go with all the colors.

How do you use red nail polish?

The perfect red nail starts with the maintenance of your hands. Therefore, first file your nails tightly with a glass file. After filing, apply a base coat. This allows the red nail polish to adhere better to the base layer and prevents your nails from discoloring due to the pigment in the polish. Once dry, apply two thin coats of red nail polish in your favorite color. Add another layer of glitter nail polish if you're really in a party mood. Finish with a top coat to protect your paint long-term against chipping and cracking.
