Your Signature Nail Polish Color, According To Your Myers-Briggs Personality Type

Whether for a job interview, college psychology 101, or just for fun, chances are you’ve taken the Myers-Briggs Type Indicator® (MBTI®) personality inventory at some point or another, but have you ever used the infamous questionnaire to help determine the hue of your next manicure? Well, there’s a first time for everything, y’all and you’re about to find out the best nail color to rock next based on your MBTI personality.

In case you have no idea what I’m talking about, allow me to explain. The Myers-Briggs questionnaire is essentially a multiple-choice-style self-report that assesses the ways you think, perceive, process emotions, work with others, etc. based on a series of questions aiming to ascribe a set of traits through the following four personality dichotomies: introversion or extraversion, sensing or intuition, thinking or feeling, judging or perceiving. There are sixteen different types total — each based on a stereotype originally outlined by Swiss psychologist Carl Jung — including INFJ, the “Counsellor,” ENFJ, the “Giver,” and ISFJ, the “Defender.”

Never taken the Myers-Briggs personality test for yourself? The official MBTI test does cost money, but a quick Google search will give you plenty of similar alternatives you can take online for free if you prefer. Regardless of its accuracy and reliability (both of which have been widely disputed), I think most of us can agree taking these introspective personality tests is a fun way to get to know yourself a little better — or at least to feel somewhat understood. Ahead, we’ve picked out the best nail color to complement each personality type (and to elevate your next mani with some personalized flair).

Our mission at STYLECASTER is to bring style to the people, and we only feature products we think you’ll love as much as we do. Please note that if you purchase something by clicking on a link within this story, we may receive a small commission of the sale.
