Go Bold With White Accents
Baby blue is a fun color, but it can be risky if you’re not feeling confident. You may want to try adding some white accents to your look for an extra pop of color. For example, you could wear baby blue on your nails and add a white accent nail or two on the other fingers. You could also wear baby blue on your lips or cheeks with a white lip gloss or blush.
Add Shimmer With Gold Accents
A fun way to wear baby blue nails is with a gold accent. This look will always be in style and works well with any color, especially pastels like mint green and lavender. You can either do a classic French manicure or use the same color for both your nails and your base coat for an ombre effect. Remember that whatever you choose, the key is using gold accents!
Create an Ombre Look
To get this look you will need a dark blue color, like L’oreal’s Darkest Navy, and light blue color, like Essie’s Mint Candy Apple. Begin by painting your nails with a dark blue color, then take a lighter color and paint over the bottom half of your nails. Take a small brush or q-tip and dip it in some clear polish remover, then paint over the top of your nails with the darker shade. Voila!
Go For Patterned Accents
Patterns make for a great accent nail. If you want, you can even paint your nails one solid color and use a pattern on your accent nail. Even if it’s on both hands, it will look unique because no one else is going to have exactly what you have! Not only that, but patterns look adorable with baby blue polish because they’ll pop in comparison and balance out all of that lighter-colored space.
Here are some patterns you can try.
- Animal Print
- Polka Dot
- Stripes
- Marble
Keep it Simple with a Matte Finish
Baby blue nails are a great way to bring a pop of color into your look without going overboard. With so many different variations of this soft color, you’ll be able to find the perfect shade for any occasion. If you want something a little more subtle, try wearing baby blue matte polish with neutral colors like black or brown. This will help the blue on your baby blue nails show up better and will also make the manicure last longer!
