Best Colors to Paint Your Nails for Boudoir Photo Shoot

When you book a sexy boudoir photoshoot at The Pouting Room, you’ll want to look your best from head to toe. This means getting a manicure and pedicure before your session. Need some inspiration?

Here are the best colors to paint your nails for your boudoir photo shoot:

Classic blush

You can’t go wrong with an elegant, timeless blush pink. Some of our favorites are Essie’s Ballet Slippers and OPI’s Sweetheart, both of which are soft pale pink.

Sophisticated neutrals

It’s up to you whether to pick a shade close to your skin tone or to go lighter or darker. We like Butter London’s All Hail the Queen (a shimmer-tinged beige) and Deborah Lippmann’s Natural Woman (a full-coverage almond nude).

Va-va-voom red

Red nails will give you a touch of retro glamor. We like Revlon Red, a color that was developed in the 1930s and is still popular today. Feeling fancy? Dior’s Rouge 999 is a true, classic red.

Here are some nail looks to avoid:

Very dark or black colors

While we love a dramatic nail as an everyday look, it can make your nails look like black spots in your photos.

Chipped polish

Avoid the need for retouching by making sure your nails are freshly painted. We recommend going to a salon for a flawless look!
