How to choose from nail color recommendations
A recommended shade should pass all three checks before it earns a place in your routine.

Only keep options that reinforce cool pink-beige. If the color adds the opposite temperature, it will read separate from your face.
Finish second
Prioritize a sheer or cream finish. Finish can make a close shade look polished or make a correct undertone feel too heavy.
Intensity last
The recommendation should define your features without becoming louder than the rest of your Light Summer palette.
