Nail polishing is one of women’s favourite pastimes. The constant dilemma of choosing the perfect colour can sometimes take a lot of time. That’s why we have selected several shades of long-lasting and classic nail polishes to ensure your autumn nails will attract attention and compliments.
The choice of nail polish colour depends on many factors: the season, your outfit, your mood, and personality. Bright, vibrant shades are usually recommended for summer, while autumn nails are generally characterized by more subdued, darker, and warmer tones. Of course, this doesn`t mean you cannot use pink, blue, white, or black polish during the “golden season.”
Choosing a colour is a deeply personal matter, and you cannot go wrong with any shade as long as you like it. Below are a few of our favourites and recommendations.
Autumn Colours
For many people, autumn is the most beautiful season due to its stunning colours and landscapes. If you feel the same, we recommend choosing warm-toned nail polishes that evoke images of dry leaves and autumn fruits. Brown, yellow, orange, burgundy, and gold are excellent choices for chilly days. Besides boosting your mood and energy, these colours create a sense of coziness and warmth.
Autumn Yellow
Yellow is the absolute trend this year. If you haven’t worn it yet, now is the perfect time to see how it suits you. This colour will bring warmth to autumn days and put smiles on faces. Our recommendation is the Sunrise Shade from Galaxy Professional’s Long-lasting Nail Polish Line. It pairs beautifully with all warm tones, adds brightness to gloomy fall days, and lifts the spirit.
Deep Purple
A deep purple shade, reminiscent of plums, grapes, and wine, is undoubtedly a great choice for autumn days. The Burgundy Wine colour gel and the same shade from Galaxy Professional’s long-lasting nail polish line look stunning on nails of all shapes and lengths. This versatile colour works well for both formal and everyday occasions. If you are aiming for a slightly different manicure this autumn, we suggest opting for a matte top coat instead of a glossy finish.
Orange Autumn Nails
Orange nails are perfect for true lovers of the autumn season. If pumpkins are your preferred vegetable, we recommend matching your nails to the theme with an orange shade. We particularly love the Sunset in Tuscany long-lasting polish from Galaxy Professional.
To complete the autumn magic, try adding leaves and other golden season-themed symbols to a few nails. If you are not confident in drawing precise designs with a brush, nail stamping is a quick and easy way to achieve beautiful decorations. If you cannot decide on a specific motif, we suggest the Mother Nature 04 plate from the MoYou collection, featuring iconic autumn symbols like acorns, leaves, and woodland animals.
Glow-in-the-Dark Nails
If you want a striking manicure this autumn that stands out even in the dark, we recommend using the Glow in the Dark shades from Galaxy Professional’s long-lasting polish collection. Depending on your creativity, you can decorate your nails with pumpkins, leaves, or various designs and characters from animated films. Even if you are not skilled with a brush, you can still use these stunning shades in a simple way—the effect will be equally captivating both in daylight and when the lights go out.
