Red is the Only Choice for Feet!
"When it comes to foot nails (pedicure), red is all that matters. Anything else is a no-go." This is a phrase we often hear.
In this diverse world, it might feel a bit harsh to say such things...! But indeed, it seems that many people considered beautiful tend to favor a single color of red for their feet.
Stylist Fumio Kanagawa, who is popular for his "fumio buys," also stated, "For beautiful women, red is the only choice."

I thought about getting red foot nails to aim for beauty, but...
There are actually quite a few shades of red...
There are burgundy tones, vermilion shades, rose hues, and plum-like reds.
Choosing a nail color is quite tricky, just like picking a lip color.
Depending on skin tone and atmosphere, there should be both flattering reds and ones that don’t suit one's preferences, even among the same shades of red.
So in this article, I would like to introduce various versions of red foot nails so that you don't get confused when you're asked, "Which red would you like??" at the nail salon♡

Here are 20 images of various red foot nails♡
I shared some photos that I found on Instagram that I thought looked stylish*
Personally, I feel that a single-color red close to vermilion gives off a sexy image. I think it suits fair-skinned individuals well.
I have a desire to try for this look, but since my skin tone is somewhat dull and reddish, I haven’t been able to pull it off. I have always opted for a burgundy-like red.
(Bright colors don’t suit me and make my skin look rough, so I always mix white with beige....)
I feel that glitter, holograms, mirrors, and magnet effects are types that suit a variety of skin tones.
What kind of red nails would you like to try???
After considering various options, I’m thinking of trying a sultry red foot this summer....
