The Perfect Spring Nail Polish to Try, Based on Your Zodiac Sign
Each of the 12 signs of the zodiac are said to correspond with certain personality traits. There's the ethereal Pisces, the dignified Leo, the trailblazing Aries, and so on. But did you know that the signs also align with a color? Astrologers believe that incorporating your sun sign's "power color" into your makeup and wardrobe will bring out your best characteristics, as well as positively impact your mood.
There's a (nearly) effortless way to embrace that special shade. In fact, it comes in a little glass bottle. Yep, we're talking about nail polish. Simply put, seeing your designated hue on your nails as you go about your day (and type away) may give you a subtle boost of energy this spring, which is already a time of renewal—according to those of us who study the cosmos, at least.
Ready to break out your manicure kit? These trendy options (think: versatile neutrals and pretty pastels) are all in your zodiac sign's color family. And remember, self-care is something all 12 signs should partake in equally (even you, Aries, can pause for a moment to relax).
