Certain shades are especially beloved in manicures. Classic red is a timeless option, and barely-there pink never goes out of style. But what about? This neutral isn’t usually the best polish shade, but it shouldn’t be. Think about it: this Light Brown Nails is versatile and will suit everyone. Another perk? There are so many unique ways to incorporate it into your manicure. The options are endless, whether you go for a simple neutral manicure or ombre. We’ve rounded up the best light brown nail ideas below to prove it.
