Self confidence, beauty, confidence is sexy. It’s complicated, sometimes, but there’s still a pore and it’s full of goals! And nail colors are the ultimate on-off hook – they energize, weind and excite. Wear your favorite color on your hand, and it’s instant #go-go status. Go full glam, or go full job, the outcome is how awesome you look. Take whatever route you choose, nail polish is your key to having your best self-confidence and being glamorous. And men and women love it! Here are five of our favorite self-confidence nail polishes.

1. Vernoo Blue/Green

Are you sick of saying, “Whoa man!”

You’re not just encouraging men to love and appreciate your manicure. You are showing him that you know how to rock a nail she that is also a blast from the past. This vibrant combination of bright violet and green gives the illusion of undertones. We love the great coverage that it provides, and the shape is flawless and just right for your manicure. It’s pretty and yet super feminine and cool, always keeping us on trend.

Price: $16.99.

2. Vincent L’Oreal Pink/Golden

Starry Pink is a man’s nail color that feels divine when worn on your pinky. The vibrant combination of pink and golden tones creates a dramatic impact and accentuates your eyes. If you’re flattered by that, you’re doing something right.

The richest she we’ve found yet in a nude she, the color delivers on elegance and gives the illusion of body inste of form.

Price: $16.99.

3. Tracy Reese Pearl/Chiffon

It’s no surprise that any woman who knows us has raved about Tracy Reese’s collection. We’ve personally worn this gorgeous she on many occasions. You may not be a woman of color, but that doesn’t mean that you aren’t a modern woman.

Pearl on your nails is the modern man look for a woman who wants to feel the warm glow of her looks, as well as the pleasures of the season. This vibrant combination of pale pink and coral colors makes for a beautiful evening, day or date. We can’t stress enough about how vibrant, gorgeous and peachy this colorful she is!

Price: $16.99.

4. Essie Lemon Cheeky’s Big Kitten Green Kiss

You can’t get “fuzzy” finger scallop nail polishes without ruining your nails. Cuticle erasers are a dying nail art trend. You’ve seen them everywhere, and they are great for those of us who are allergic to polish. If you’re severe about tending to your fingers the right way (and so are dermatologists!) it’s time to stop because for your nails to hold any color for very long time, you need to be harsh.

The right kind of drasticness isn’t necessary and you can still d a little edge to your finger nails with a twist-up manicure. Use black spray paint to paint the length of the nail between the corners of your digits. Then let the polish or top coat dry by letting it soak in by covering the polish with a clear nail polish. In this look, fish tails are worn on top of the she, but all other colors are hidden! There’s a lot to love about this series of glittering nails.

Price: $20.

5. Luma Manicure Solace Purple

I love this she. To understand why, the name of the lipstick is almost as sexy as the coloritself. Luma Manicure’s Colour Sleep foundation is one of our first to try. It offers peace of mind by providing a nourishing one-step application process. First we set our nails, then paint with our foundation to create a soft base coat that is beautiful and subtle.

It’s a full wash-out, almost like a taupe gloss, but in a darker color. In this entire presentation of color and texture, it brightens, it complements, and it actually creates a message of empowerment and positivity by empowering the young lipstick lover.

Price: $10.

The tools will set you back around $2,400, but during our phone call with Dedivanovic, he told us that he likes to believe his affordable prices and global reach help inspire and educate beauty lovers around the world. Our longtime lover for the Korean beauty market led us to online styling services, Instagram recommendations, and a sometimes meme-y approach to grooming that inspired him to start up his own nail salon. Dedivanovic also told us about life in Milan, his favorite color in the world and the weirdest thing we’ve all ever discovered in his shop.

Nails Pop Into Focus

Nails pop into focus. Great thing for my nails to be brilliant and beautiful. I started selling nails because my nails were one of the first physical objects that I realized in the world of makeup, in the beauty world, women love nails.”

Make Mine Color, Make It Last

“Make Mine Color works both ways. When you are making beauty products, you know that these are just the prints and sometimes you can think for the print you are only going to do a print and not think about how the she you are making is going to be with the color and taking the whole picture together.”

Move Ahe and Place Something

“When you see my nails, we just sort of introduced the beauty world to lacquer. And if you look at these nails, the nature of the nails, the shape of the nails in relation to the object, it’s like a military ritual. The nails get very small and I’m like the boots — it’s so important to share that part of beauty with every woman. Make Mine Lipstick is the lipstick of reflection: we want to show reflection but it’s also about the history and the platform of beauty.”

Beauty Needs A Stronger Political Environment

“I started my own salon in Milan and in the west on the outskirts of the city, I found that it really affected a community that wanted to get more involved and that wanted to develop a conversation about the beauty industry.”

Do the Right Thing

“I started with a group of young artists, really into hair, makeup, and fashion. And I realized from experience that beauty you can say something so right away, but then you get to the moment where a piece is about to be displayed and it’s like, ‘I’m so sorry, here’s my beauty’ and there’s this awful disappointment…”

The Thought of The World

“Every one of my clients has their own story to tell. Some started from a certain place… some just want to be brave and that’s what they want to bring their everyday lives. You can see things all the time, whatever your personal experiences are — it’s important for me to think.”

Make This The Right Time

“Sometimes I think of hair and makeup in the sense of well, if I can somehow take a piece and actually make my life easier or make my life easier, why not? We’re in this time right now where everything is so much fluid, so when you have a technology-based idea or a technology-based beauty, it is not easy to create something that works.”
