Basically, all polishes are about the same. Some last longer than others, and cost more. The cheaper the price, the more likely it will wear off or chip. If you live near a beauty supply house (I like Sally, but others are good also) you can go there and find very reasonable prices and so many colors you can freak out looking at them. Also these places have people working there who can advise you as to color - your personal coloration makes a difference. I'm so pale I glow in the dark, nearly, so the really dark dark reds don't look so good on me; but surprisingly, purple and black DO. It's a trial and error thing. If you haven't much money to spend, go with the low end polishes till you find a color you like. (I had almost 200 bottles of polish at one time, but in only about 4 colors. I just kept re-buying the same colors in different brands!!!) It's also kind of important to use a base and top coat, which keeps your nails from turning yellow. Dark colors will make your nails look awful if you put them directly on your nails without a base coat. Top coat keeps it from chipping a little longer. Good luck, and HAVE FUN - that's what it's all about!

well, you just have to look hard there really is not a best nail polish because some mixtures of nail polish could have a different affect on your nails than some one else's but i like ZOYA, DURi, and Essie. And as for color, if you have pale skin pick a fierce redish color, if you have normal/ fair skin then pick a pinkish color which would be best but you can do anything, and if you have darker tan type skin, pick a bright coral or pink maybe even fuschia. or do French which goes with all skin ones.

Black nail polish would be on either. if you are goth or it's hallowen it's soo cute and in. But if it's for just cause soooooooo tack. Red nail polish always in. It looks cute with anything. It's a great way to brigten up an outfit or someons day! I like when they put a very pale blue and put a pretty design on. Once i got rainbow colored ... so 7 colors per nail. It looked sooo cute. I also do enjoy french manicures to. i think they look so cute and natural...(sometimes). Great question btw.

I personally dont like Wet N' Wild I think its made cheap and peels off way to fast! Pink and Red are always great colors anytime of year.I Like Maybelline New York's Express Finish advanced wear, it last a long time and looks shiny for weeks!

I like OPI and Orly. They have the best colors and last a long time without getting thick and clumpy. You can get them at a nail salon or beauty supply store.

Well, whats your favorite color? Try asking someone who works with nails, at a nail salon or something. They could tell you.

my favorite is called color blast, they have tons of colors and are very inexpesive, and you can get them at any target. since finger nails are closer to the eye, a lighter color is a better choice, because imperfections aren't as easy to see. also, whenever using dark colors on fingernails, do a thin layer at a time, so that fingers look better.

OPI is great quality and they have so many colors. Black is making a comeback and easy to find now with Halloween coming. I love it with small crystal stones, sparkle polish on top, or those little dacal stickers you can put on.

Professional lines sold in beauty supply stores or at your local salon are the best I have found. Fall is coming so I would choose some rich fall earth tones.
