Red nail polish is the answer to all your problems, and we’re not kidding.
“In nearly 30 years of being in the nail industry, red is always a winner, and many times when a client has their partner choose a color for them, they opt for red, more often than not. Do I think it has something to do with their mothers? Not really, but I do think there is something to a red manicure that is both sexy and conservative, flirty and strong. Confidence is attractive. Red nails are boldly confident while still very approachable to wear.”
These are the words of OPI global education design, Heather Reynosa, in her interview with BAZAAR.com.
Red is timeless; it isn’t one of those GEN Z trends that comes and goes; it has passed the test of time over centuries. It is believed that the very first nail polish color, which originated in China in 3,000 B.C., was deep red.
