1. For an express spearmint manicure, Sally Hansen Complete Salon Manicure in Jaded, $14.95, combines colour with a base and top coat.

2. More mint than grape, O.P.I Nail Lacquer in Gargantuan Green Grape, $19.95, looks best on short nails.

3. Subtle shimmer keeps milky pastels, like the cornflower blue Essie Nail Lacquer in Bikini So Teeny, $16.95, from appearing too flat.

4. The punchy, peachy Rimmel I Love Lasting Finish Nail Polish in No Tan Lines Here, $5.95, perfectly complements a (fake) tan.

5. Three coats of Avon Nailwear Pro+ Nail Enamel in Pastel Pink, $14.99, results in a sweet candy hue.
