As far as i know anemia can change the color of the inside of your eyelids and the color or your vagina also yes your nail color but not to purple and yellow. More like a off white.

It depends on how long you had the nail polish on tho. The longer you have it on the longer it takes for the yollow to go away.  One time I left my nail polish on my toes for like two months and it took about 3 weeks for my nails to go back to how they usually look lol.

Yellow nails

Can be indicative of problems with the lymphatic system, respiratory disorders, diabetes or liver. Yellow discoloration in your fingernails may result from a respiratory condition, such as chronic bronchitis, or from swelling of your hands (lymphedema). In yellow nail syndrome, nails thicken and new growth slows, resulting in discoloration. Nails affected with this condition may lack a cuticle and may detach from the nail bed in places.

Purple nails

Oxygen deprivation, circulatory problems, congenital problems.

Sometimes my nails do that if I keep the nail polish on too long, like a couple weeks or so.  It does that because if you always have nail polish on then your nails can't get air and that makes them turn that color... you'll be fine though just don't put any on for about a week and they should go back to normal :)
