Fall / Winter Polishes for Everyone

After a long Summer, thankfully, Fall has most definitely arrived. Finally it's the season for pumpkin spice lattes, knits, and deeper polish shades. Let me help you pick your next CHILLY weather Manicure.

Here are my picks for the cooler weather polish colours.

Reds

Every season needs it's Red it's the color of couture. Whether you're a fire engine red girl  or deep burgundy gal, you can find the perfect red made for winter wardrobe.There are so many gorgeous rouge but I love these two.

GREENS &BLUES
Not you grandmother's colors but I promise once these polishes are on you'll never want to take them off. Because of their rich tones and dark shade they pass as a neutral and will go with anything

NUDES
Beige, Tan, Taupe, no fall polish collection is complete  without  your basic  nudes and skin tones.They're a Fall classic. Perfect for an easy natural look and to keep your look fresh even in Winter with these warm tones.

Greys
You can't go wrong with a grey. Sassy light and classy darks go with it all. Grey is the new....everything! Steels to charcoal cover all the basics. Its bold amd confident but never overstated.

Metallics
Every palette has to have a metallic. The shine gives off the bling to make your nails jewels not just 'make-up' so match your mood not only your clothing.

3D Nail ART

3D Nail ART

Sculpted nails used to be synonymous with Acrylic nails. Now it's a whole new world or nail art that can start with you sculpting acrylic but not just into pretty natural looking nail shapes. Sculpted nails are now taking Nail Art to the next level. Acrylic manufacturers have developed slower setting acyclic products with lower viscosity to allow nail artists to sculpt beautiful creation on the nail bed.


 

 Flowers to pop art, you can find all kinds of amazing examples. Some are just subtle and surprising when your realize the design is in 3D. Some are stunning and wild, and hard to believe people can function with them on. 

But in the ever more elaborate nail art world,  Dhemere Ford and Sarah C. Awad, two NYU art students, calling themselves The Laser Girls are producing the easiest and coolest sculpted nail art in a press-on. Yes! A press on! "It seemed like every aspect of fashion was being 3D printing is being used in anything, and now thanks to these brilliant young women it's come to our world!!  Celebrities and fashion designer have using over the top 3D nail art to make a statement on the runways for a while. These girls are making the big statement available to everyone, everywhere. 

 

 I am out of my mind enthralled with this idea. Check them out on tumblr or at their shop!
