Green Nails Might Catch On With The Help Of Chanel

I love nail polish that’s a little different from the usual pinks and reds, and last fall, I tried to make green nail polish happen. I painted my nails a lovely toad color and hoped others would follow suit—or at least appreciate the color. Our Emily was the only person who was fond enough of the color to paint her own nails with it. And most of my friends said it looked like I had some sort of fungus.
Well, it seems I was a little ahead of the nail polish curve (but slightly off on the exact shade), because Chanel has a jade green polish coming in October. The brand always sets color trends, so I have little doubt we’ll all be sporting minty nails very soon. And I couldn’t be happier.
Want pale green nails right this instant? A few delightful shades, after the jump…
- Orly Mint Mojito, $3.15, Victoria Nail Supply
- Konad Special Nail Polish in Pastel Green, $5.99, Amazon
- OPI Nail Polish in Hey! Get In Lime, $8.50, Nail Polish Supply

I went to paint my nails green the other day, but sadly, the polish was all dried up. I bought it circa 1997, so no surprise.

@Kate Go to Sally Beauty. China Glaze has a color called For Audrey. I think you might like that!

MAC has a shade of green that is similar…Peppermint Patty…super cute, and much cheaper than Chanel.
