It’s September 30 – we’re officially 9 days into fall, and while we’ve discussed fall skin care routines and wardrobe enhancements, we seem to be missing out a pretty big player in the game – your fingers! There’s no reason that your digits shouldn’t get the season-changing love that the rest of your life enjoys.
First – the fun part. With new seasons come new nail collection colors!
Essie’s Fall 2013 collection is out right now, and features some great shades. There are some playful shades (The Lace Is On is a super fun shade of pink – second from left), some more muted tones (Cashmere Bathrobe is a totally fall appropriate grey – last on right), and some that fall a bit in between (For The Will Of It is a brown color with a bit of a reflective/metallic shimmer – third from left).
ButterLONDON has also got a great Fall 2013 collection out right now, featuring some bright colors if you’re still loving the neon trend. For a shade that sticks with the bright trend will honoring the spirit of fall, we’re loving Giddy Kipper.
Next up, are the basics of actually executing the perfect manicure. I admit it – 95% of the time I’m super lazy about my manicures and simply push back my cuticles a bit after a shower, slap on some polish, and hope I don’t smudge them before I climb into bed. But Lauren Bosworth put together a fantastic video that shows step-by-step instructions on how to get a salon perfect mani at home!
