Silver Belles With Silver Nails - Tip of the Day!

Filed under: Cosmetics, Celebrities with Style, Style Tip of the Day, Beauty Tips

Lindsay PriceLeave it to style setters like Lindsay Price and Hilary Duff to let us in on the latest in nail color.

Many of Hollywood's most glam gals have been wearing silver nail polish all around town. Luckily, the color works on most skin tones. But be prepared. The high maintenance factor is unfortunate; however, totally worth the effort if you ask us! Here are a few tips to keep your silver digits looking stunning.

1. Choose a rich polish. You'll only need to layer on two coats for your nails to pop.

2. Use a base coat and a top coat to keep polish in place.

3. Refresh the color every 2-3 days by adding another layer of clear top coat.

4. Steer clear of chunky glitter or you'll risk looking silly, not sophisticated.

5. Think of the polish like jewelry and add accessories accordingly.
