The Neutral Nail

       
       
       
       
       
       
       
       
       

You can pretty much assume throughout the Autumn/Winter ill be sporting a dark burgundy nail and come Spring/Summer ill have switched it up to something obnoxiously bright (have you seen the new 'Tan' range by Models Own?!) but its about time I grow up and dip into the neutral nails.

Opi's 'Tickle my France-y' is the perfect shade to start with giving a pale rose wash of a colour with slight mauve/brown undertones. It took just 2 coats to become opaque and found with 3 it becomes slightly too dark for my skin tone. The consistency is creamy and applies evenly and streak free with little effort leaving a such a gorgeous glossy finish I didn't need bother with a top coat! 

This nude instantly elongates my fingers giving me a feminine polished look I was after all along! Can you recommend me any nudes to build my collection with?
