Nail polish colors that stretch your fingers!
The enamel for short fingers is the one able to slender the entire hand, giving the idea of greater length of the fingers. Obviously there are more or less suitable colors and nail art, even if no shade is really forbidden because a lot also depends on the shape and length of the nails.
And since we are close to Christmas, here is a video for a themed manicure that will leave everyone speechless!
How to polish your nails to make your fingers look longer
A little trick to follow when applying the polish on the nails is to keep a few millimeters free on the sides and at the base, without spreading it over the entire surface, thus giving an optical effect of lengthening, not only of the nail but of the entire finger.

Nail polish to stretch your fingers: the colors to choose
The variables for choosing the right nail polish are numerous and all together can contribute to obtaining a lengthening effect: the type of skin, the color of the complexion, the shape of the nail and the type of manicure chosen.
In principle, the nail should be kept not too short but not excessively long, rounded and not squared.
If you have rather stubby fingers and dream of a graceful, tapered hand, choose dark colors, such as burgundy, red, plum or black.
On the other hand, light gray, pearly white and nude should be avoided, as they are dull shades that tend to shorten and make the fingers more stocky.
