I am getting my nails done again tomorrow, and I am a cheapskate who always makes her shellac last a month.

I usually have red or taupe.

What do you have as a non-clashing, go with anything colour? I feel like a change. Names or colour numbers would be appreciated.

What gel polish does your nail tech use?
Shellac fedora is lovely and goes with everything. It's a very dark reddy brown.
Or shellac safety pin which is a subtle, shimmery champagne shade.

I've got asphalt on for a first time change and like it. It's a slate grey and I have very pale cool skin.

Shellac Rubble is quite a nice taupe, or Cityscape is a lovely grey.

Fedora is a good all-rounder.

I quite like Cake Pop but more in summer when hands are tanned.

I also like Blackpool on the bottom with Midnight Swim over the top for a nice navy.

Try burgundy or nude, goes with everything.

I went for shellac field fox. It's a perfect nude on my skin Smile

I'm wearing field fox too. It's one of my favourites.

Field fox is lovely, although it comes up quite purple-hued against my skin (pale, blonde). For a true nude I like Nude Knickers or Bear Chemise (both Shellac).

I've just had Indigo Frock put on though - a beautiful petrol blue-grey :)
