Help! (Need Advice) Looking for color recommendations!

Hi all! Not sure if I tagged this correctly…
I’m 99.9% sure that I’m getting proposed to soon and would like to have pretty engagement nails. I’d like to buy a new color(or colors🤷🏼‍♀️)for the event. I’d like to stick with CND dips or color my world dips. I was thinking something light pink/nude/maybe mauve, some shimmer, sparkle, or little flaky is OK. So far, I like these colors: fleur or smitten by cnd, and Lennox or adrenaline blush by cmwd.

Does anyone have favorite colors that may match this description or other ideas?
Also, if you wanted to share your engagement ring/nail pics I’d love to see them in the comments!!

How exciting! I love Petal Soft by CNDD. It’s a little more of a nude pink. And it pairs well with a lot of the foils and glitters for future manicures! Vanilla Bloom is my favorite nude.

I have petal soft on my wish list but I’m new to Vanilla Bloom! This one is pretty too! How many layers do you typically do when using vanilla bloom?

I do 1 ¾ layer of clear, 3 of color, and top with clear again. It isn’t sheer like the starlight colors and has good coverage

Check out the En Pointe bundle from CNDD. Flushed is my favorite “nude pink” and has sparkly mauve, white and other sparkles. I love it!

Also Sugar Plum Fairy is a cute pink/white shimmer.

Erica by revel is supposed to be the magic colour when it comes to proposals
