Here, each nail gets a different design, so the glitter is more subtle than the allover look.No, we’re not talking about you and your partner – although that is certainly true. Today, we’re referring to your wedding manicure and engagement ring! Choosing the right shade to complement your engagement ring might seem like a small detail in the grand scheme of things, but it can transform the look of your ring. Most brides go for classic neutrals and light pink polish, but if you are looking for something a little more adventurous, the right nail color can make your engagement ring shine and sparkle, something you want on your big day! During this time of COVID-19, it would be a perfect opportunity to start trying out different nail color shades to see what works best with your ring. If you need a little guidance, here are our top nail color recommendations based on the metal of your engagement ring!
A gold engagement ring is timeless but tends to have a yellow tint to it. The yellow undertones of your ring would be best complemented with a warmer nail color like peach or light pink. These colors will contrast the yellow of your band, but also pick up the shine of the gold ring. If pink and orange hues aren’t your style, you can also opt for a neutral or sparkly champagne nail shade for a more classic look.
The inherent brightness of a white gold engagement ring calls for a darker nail shade. To contrast the luster of the metal, you want to opt for a dark purple or crimson nail color. If you want your ring to stand out, choose a metallic nail shade like a sparkling gray. The subtle shine of your nail color will enhance the appearance of your engagement ring to make it look bigger and more elegant.

If you’re rocking a rose gold engagement ring, you’re already a fashion-forward bride-to-be! But, if you want to take it to the next level go for a candy apple red nail polish. Sometimes a hue as bright as red can seem off-putting, but in this case, it will bring out the pink accents of your ring. For a more neutral option, choose a pearly white or champagne nail color to bring out the shine in your engagement ring.
For a cool tone metal like platinum you want to choose a nail color that will amplify the shine of your engagement ring and make it pop! Opt for an icy blue or white nail color, these hues will give your ring the room to shine while still providing an eye-catching backdrop. If you want a brighter look, go for a deep fuchsia to provide a bit more color without overpowering the sparkle of your engagement ring.
It can be tricky to find the right nail shade for a gemstone engagement ring, as they already have pops of color embedded into the ring itself. But, no need to head straight for toned-down neutrals, deep jewel tone hues are better suited for gemstone rings. Whether you have an emerald, sapphire, or ruby ring, nail colors like violet, crimson, and deep blue will provide a contrast that enhances the color of your stone.
