It seems like dark nails have been in forever now, but more and more it’s becoming a faux pas to sport a dull black without any underlying tone of color. 

Blacks with navy undertones, burgundy and violets have been making waves for a while now.  With the release of Chanel’s Jade Green polish inadvertently the dark green trend was ferociously unleashed as many thought this shade was better suited for spring and wanted something darker for fall.

‘Go Green’ and treat your tips to these top 3 picks of delicious dark shades:

• OPI “Here today Aragon tomorrow”
• Sally Hansen “Jumpin Jade” (which I wear ALL the time when i’m in a hurry to paint my nails as it stays true to it’s claim of drying within a minute.
• Rescue Beauty Lounge “Orbis Non Sufficit”

Mint nail polish. Well note quite mint, but rather Jade that is. It’s Chanel’s latet must have, “it” for nails. We teased you back in the summer that the new “it” nail polish colour would be this one.

Who What Wear tells us where the pale green nail trend began: The fingernail fad began where most polish trends start—on the Chanel runway—and this latest craze is no different. Peter Philips, the Global Creative Director of Chanel Makeup, originally created the fingertip tint as a one-off for the fashion house’s F/W 09 show.

But it’s now up for retail because so many beauty trendsters, fashionistas and general Chanel fans all starting asking for the pale opaque Le Vernis Nail Color in Jade.
