"This year has made me a bit more experimental with my nail polish choices, but I still love a good red for winter. The Essie Gel Couture in Paint the Gown Red ($12) is a beautiful, deep berry-red colour that really makes your nails pop. It feels different and a little more exciting than your traditional, bright candy apple red (although that's another good option, too). No matter how many times I paint my nails this colour, I never get tired of it." — Jessica Harrington, associate beauty editor
