16 Luxe-Looking Nail Colors to Try Just in Time for Taurus Season
Is there anything better than Taurus season? As both a Taurus sun and Taurus moon, I realize I might be biased, but I think it's pretty hard to disagree. Taurus season is all about stability, opulence in all of its forms, and chances for us to ground ourselves.
If you're looking to infuse the spirit of Taurus season—and the month of May in general—into your nails, I've rounded up the best possible colors for you to do so with. Opt for colors in a Taurus color palette, like green, pink, white, and anything earth-toned. It would be very Taurean of you to take time for yourself and do your nails—especially with a luxury nail polish brand.
Luxe Greens
Green is the quintessential Taurus color—the May birthstone is an emerald, after all. Green symbolizes life, fertility, and renewal.
Neutral Earth Tones
Earth tones are essentially any shade found in nature, so most brown-leaning colors fit the bill. These colors typically signal stability, resilience, and strength.
Dreamy Pinks
Pink is the ultimate soft, feminine color. Tap into that power by painting your nails with a subdued version of the shade.
Shades of White
White embodies serenity and peace. This tranquil color is the perfect shade to paint your nails for immaculate vibes.
