How To Choose Thanksgiving Nail Color For Your Skin Tone

Let's face it, not everyone looks good in shades of russet orange or mustard yellow. While it's important to take your skin tones into consideration, keep in mind that the Thanksgiving color palette has a wide spectrum of shades that complement all skin tones. Let's review the color recommendations based on different skin tones and colors:

If your complexion is warm and golden or olive, you're in luck because the Thanksgiving color palette has tons of options that will look great on you! Warm hues such as russet orange and mustard yellow can describe people with warm skin tones. To truly capture the essence of deep decadence, consider colors like copper and earthy browns.

A different combination of Thanksgiving nail colors can be worn by those with cool undertones and light pink undertones. Your best friends are burgundy, navy blue, sheer nudes and silver accent shades. These colors will complement your skin tone beautifully and create an attractive look.

Bright jewel tones look especially beautiful on people with high levels of melanin in their skin. Just imagine how vibrant midnight blue, regal purple, and delicious emerald green would be!

What Nail Designs Work Best During Thanksgiving?

Imagination knows no bounds. So, have fun with your Thanksgiving nail art! Let them represent you and show off your unique style. But if you're looking for trendy holiday nail designs, here's some inspiration:

  • Plaid Pattern: For a casual touch, create a plaid pattern on your nails using a variety of fall colors. If, however, you're not a fan of flannel, keep in mind that Burberry, a high-end brand, also offers plaid.
  • Fall Foliage: A traditional Thanksgiving nail design features vibrant foliage. The best part is that you can access the vibrant colors even after the leaves turn brown.
  • Harvest Theme:The harvest theme includes seasonal nail decorations such as pumpkins, a cornucopia, acorns, and corn on the cob, all reminiscent of the season.
  • Thanksgiving accents: If your manicure is based around pumpkin pie or turkeys, no one will ever guess!
  • Geometric patterns: Keep it sophisticated by using well-chosen colors and lines. Add glitter or gold flakes for festive accents, or apply a matte finish for an even more sophisticated appearance.

Conclusion

May your nails be the perfect finishing touch to your festive outfit and may your Thanksgiving be full of love, warmth and fun! To complete your ensemble and express your excitement for the holiday, we hope you enjoy choosing your Thanksgiving nail ideas and nail colors.
