For a bright orange:
* Red + Yellow: This classic combination will create a vibrant orange. You'll likely need more yellow than red to achieve the desired shade.
* Red + Gold: Adding a bit of gold shimmer can create a metallic orange effect.
For a deeper orange:
* Red + Yellow + Brown: A touch of brown will create a more muted, earthy orange.
* Red + Orange: This combination will deepen the orange tone, especially if you use a darker red.
Tips for mixing nail polishes:
* Start with a small amount of each color. You can always add more later.
* Mix the polishes on a piece of paper or a palette.
* Test the color on a scrap of paper before applying it to your nails.
* Use a thin coat of clear nail polish as a base to help prevent staining.
Remember, the results will vary depending on the specific shades of polish you use. Experiment to find the perfect orange for you!
