The Best New Polishes That You're Going to Want for Your Thanksgiving Mani

By Patricia Shannon

This Thanksgiving, we’re getting ready fingers first with a slew of bold colors. When you’re looking for the perfect Thanksgiving nail polish anything goes, though you’ll want to select a high-quality brand that can stand up to rolling out pie crusts and mashing potatoes. To select the perfect Thanksgiving nail polish colors, we tend to gravitate toward earthy hues, deep plums, navy, and hearty green colors. For an extra dose of something bold, you can try a subtle Thanksgiving nail art design but, just remember, a little goes a long way. Skip the Thanksgiving nail designs that include tiny turkeys and petite candy corn motifs—trust us, you’ll be glad you did. For something with a little extra glitz, opt for Thanksgiving nail polish colors that have a slight shimmer, like OPI Coalmates, to dress up your digits. Thanksgiving is the start of the holiday season, which means it’s time to bring out all those rich colors you’ve been waiting all year to get your hands on. Just remember to share; these new holiday polishes look even better when they’re dressing the hand passing the pumpkin pie.

This dusty plum colored gel polish is the secret to a stunning Thanksgiving mani that won’t chip while you’re rolling out the pie crust.
