Butter London Ultra Violet
Butter London is known for creating rich shades inspired by Pantone's Color of the Year. For 2018, that color is ultra violet, and we are obsessed with their entire chip resistant collection—especially this lacquer named after the spotlight shade itself! Sport it on its own for a bold statement or pair it with the line's other polishes for an edgy monochromatic vibe. ($10; ulta.com)

Essie Less-is-Aura
Inspired by the sunset of the desert, Essie's Less-is-Aura warms up any manicure. The shimmery shade easily glides on and lasts throughout the day. This must-have terracotta beige is just one of the six horizon shades in the Desert Mirage Collection, but we specifically love this shade because it's a stunning neutral any nail guru needs in her polish selection.
