Summer weather has returned to Britain, but probably for a few days at most, so I thought I'd feature this sunny shade today. I pretty much detest extreme heat, even when it's caused by sunshine so I've opted out of every exotic family holiday since 2007! I really only look forward to Summer because it means I get to rock a pair of Aviators every day. I've been less of a summer grinch the last few years and always try my best to join in with everyone's excitement whenever the sun is shining.
I think tips are quite boring but I always get cravings to wear them so I try to work in another element that will spice it up a bit. I was kind of stuck for spicy elements today so I just added an extra line. It's very simple but quite sophisticated and I like it!
The base colour is Sally Hansen Sun Kissed and I used Barry M Gold Foil and a striper brush to paint on the tips and the extra little line.

Awesome, I was thinking about buying "Gold Foil" but I wasn't sure about it. Since orange is one of my favourite colours I'll definitely buy and try this combination! :D
ReplyDeleteThose are amazing! Will definitely be stealing that idea :)

ReplyDelete"Classy" is the only word to describe it!
ReplyDeleteWell, I guess "beautiful" and "perfectly-executed" work too. :)
Finally someone else who doesn't like summer! I really don't like the heat, so I prefer autumn/winter. Spring is ok, but summer.... But your nails look beautiful!
ReplyDeleteLOL I'm wearing the same exact color! But I did your gradient on the ring fingers in orange/yellow/lime. Thanks for some great posts!
