About purple nails
Lilac through deep plum: the underrated seasonal neutral.
Compare the shade in daylight before committing to a full set. A sheer coat softens the colour and hides regrowth; an opaque coat creates more contrast and usually needs cleaner maintenance at the cuticle.
Wear gloves for cleaning and reapply cuticle oil after washing. Dark and highly saturated shades show edge wear first, while sheer shades make regrowth less obvious.
