How to Wear Plum Nail Polish

Plum nail polish is a great way to add a pop of color to your nails. This deep, rich purple hue with a hint of red looks beautiful on its own or as part of a manicure. To get the most out of your plum nail polish, we recommend trying it with these designs:

-Glitter Ombre: This design is perfect for those who want to add some sparkle to their nails. To create this look, start by painting your nails with a base coat of plum polish. Then, apply glitter polish to the tips of your nails. Finally, use a brush to blend the two colors together.

-Negative Space Manicure: This trend is all about showing off your natural nails. To achieve this look, start by painting your nails with a base coat of plum polish. Then, use a striping brush to create thin lines of polish around the edge of your nails. Finally, fill in the rest of your nails with clear polish.

-Plum and Gold Manicure: This design is perfect for those who want to add a touch of luxury to their nails. To create this look, start by painting your nails with a base coat of plum polish. Then, use a brush to apply gold polish to the tips of your nails. Finally, use a cotton swab dipped in nail polish remover to clean up any mistakes.

-Plum French Manicure: This look is great for those who want to add a touch of color to their nails without going overboard. To create this look, start by painting your nails with a base coat of clear polish. Then, use a brush to apply plum polish to the tips of your nails. Finally, use a cotton swab dipped in nail polish remover to clean up any mistakes.

-Plum Accent Nail: On the other hand, if you’re looking for a way to add a pop of color to your nails, try painting one accent nail plum. To do this, start by painting your nails with a base coat of white polish. Then, use a brush to apply plum polish to just one nail. It will stand out against the rest of your nails and add a touch of fun to your manicure.

-Plum Gradient Nails: Another fun plum nail design is gradient nails. To achieve this look, start by painting your nails with a base coat of white polish. Then, use a makeup sponge to apply plum polish to the tips of your nails. Start with a small amount of polish and gradually add more until you’re satisfied with the look.
