I’ve not got mine done so I can’t post a photo, sorry...

But I love admiring beautifully manicured nails so please show me yours!

What’s been your favourite colour this summer?

Also if anyone has any recommendations for a properly perfect red gel varnish (to use with gel lamp) I’d really appreciate it! Needs to be your classic Parisienne red.

TIA.

These are a week in now so not looking pristine. They are nail wraps rather than paint. I like the summery orangey-red.

Lovely! That orangey red is a favourite of mine for really sunny weather.

Week old French manicure. Some may say boring and out of style but I love them. Quite tempted to go for a nude/white ombré next time.

It’s not boring, it’s classic! I like the idea of a subtle ombré.

@Rollerbird that’s such a pretty colour. I love green, it’s one of my most favourite colours. I desperately want to buy a very dark green for autumn/winter. But I’m trying to wait til then and not just buy it now!

@twilightcafe lovely! And a beautiful job too.

@ninkanink I'm looking for a darker green for autumn /winter but more of a dark sage vs a Christmas tree green.

twilightcafe · 12/08/2021 13:52

Thank you, @ninkanink

Ninkanink · 12/08/2021 14:15

@twilightcafe I had a similar colour a couple of weeks ago. Doesn’t suit me nearly as nicely though.

I kinda wish I could be bothered to do my nails today...But the truth is I just can’t. 😄 maybe tomorrow.

Pastels for me

Ninkanink · 12/08/2021 14:36

@SissySpacekAteMyHamster another of my favourites. Beautiful colour.

@dancemom 😍😍 I love pastels on other people, especially multiple colours like yours - it’s so cheerful - but sadly they just don’t suit me.

Orange/coral with a bit of shimmer. Excuse the top coat peeling away from my cuticles! Blush

Two week Shock old gel with neon toes. I'm amazed it's lasted this long

GalaxyGirl24 · 12/08/2021 16:03

Excuse this close up photo of my toes, would post nails but it's a unique design and if anyone knows me they will recognise them 😂
