During a press day promoting Once Upon a Time in Hollywood, Margot Robbie went for a monochromatic beauty look with shades of apricot on her lids, lips, cheeks and nails. Paired with an all-ivory ensemble and she positively glowed.

A Vibrant Coral

Kacey Musgraves rocked a vibrant coral mani while performing at Governors Ball Music Festival earlier this summer. The saturated hue pops against fair skin and is especially flattering thanks to the balance of warm and cool tones.

This coral from Chanel is a go-to for us because of its smooth, creamy formula. Two coats will completely cover your nails without streaking.

You can’t go wrong with this cheery citrus from Jin Soon. We can attest: The opaque formula dries quickly with a glossy finish.
