Answer
In principle, it is not permissible for a woman to apply make-up and show her beauty to Ghayr Mahrams (people not prohibited in marriage).
Furthermore, nail polish forms a base on the nails and water cannot penetrate it, thus, Wudhu done with nail polish will not be valid.

Where scholars differ, it’s safer to take the more cautious view.
