Personally, I was never a fan of the colour brown until I saw Lily James’ luscious chocolate-coloured nails for the 2022 Emmy Awards.
Compared to black, brown feels more warm and luxurious. Whether it’s clothing or make up, it’s one of the most underrated shades out there IMHO.
It pairs well with almost every colour. Brown has a calming neutrality that works great with brights or pastels fashion pieces to create a perfectly balanced look.
Most people hesitate to choose brown nail polish because they’re afraid it may not look flattering with their skin tone.
