I'm loving Jungle Red by Nars, it's lovely and red like a tomato

Rockbird · 17/04/2010 20:45

Haven't done mine yet, just about to. They will be a nice silvery purple. Now remind me, are fingers and toes supposed to match?

I have a L'oreal Red 501 on my toes and Rimmel 121 Glace on my fingers. I'm thinking I fancy trying a bit of Rimmel green with envy which has been in my box since last year but has never seen the light of day!

I would like to buy some of the pastel blues and purples that I have seen, some are a lovely colour.

ClaireDeLoon · 17/04/2010 21:13

Mine are Jessica Blushing Princess which is a deep dark pink

Fleecy · 17/04/2010 21:24

I have the Chanel 505 on fingers and find it goes with nearly everything. But I'm not sure about it on toes for fungal reasons already mentioned.

My toenails (and a little bit of my toes - not very good at painting nails!) are coral.

LetThemEatCake · 17/04/2010 21:26

have been wearing Chanel 505 but tonight am switching to D&G Drama

janeite · 17/04/2010 21:30

Mine are a putty colour - No 7 Chanel rip-off.

lumpsdumps · 18/04/2010 11:58

Rouge Noir at the moment

Elemental · 18/04/2010 13:00

I've got some OPI Give Me Moor, a beautiful black-red.

MamaG · 18/04/2010 13:01

Oblomov · 18/04/2010 14:06

GeekOfTheWeek · 18/04/2010 14:51

Mine are a v dark pink, almost red, colour at the minute. Feeling a bright orange summer coming on though

At a wedding next week though so they will have to look okay with whatever dress I get.

xkaylax · 18/04/2010 15:05

Mine are coral

xkaylax · 18/04/2010 15:05

Mine are coral

PlumSykes · 18/04/2010 15:23

Orange, always orange in summer. (never do fingers)

yama · 18/04/2010 15:50

I've always like Metallic Pink (mid to dark NOT light).

IndigoSky · 18/04/2010 15:51

Mine are currently purple.

DastardlyandSmugly · 18/04/2010 16:11

At the moment mine are bright bright pink - Essie colour called Bermuda.

I also love wearing OPI Bogata Blackberry on my toes and a retro orange colour that I have.

I've also just ordered a lovely red colour from my local spa that sparkles so it looks like Dorothy's ruby slippers.

BelleDameSansMerci · 18/04/2010 16:15

Mine are also purple. Very dark and sort of metallic.

My finger nails are, however, not looking good. I had to miss my nail appointment this week and two of my acrylics popped off so I've popped the rest off (ouch, as usual). Poor battered nails with clear varnish on. Will cover them up with something later. Sob!

SuziKettles · 18/04/2010 16:20

Rimmel 60 Seconds in Portabello which is bright pink.

Was emergency cover-up of horrid winter toenails unexpectedly exposed by some good weather this weekend.

Maize · 18/04/2010 16:21

I ended up with dark red but I want deep purple I think so will go on a mish this week to purchase.

MAC Dark Angel - 'goth romantic dark lilac' apparently, but a somewhat nondescript burgundy in reality. Despite disappointment with MAC colour reproduction I'm terribly tempted by limited edition Blue India.

OhCobblers · 28/04/2010 23:05

can i ask if you think OPI is one of the best nail varnishes?
i've got a whole bag of old products and quite happy to dump the lot and go for a couple of colours from the more expensive ranges if they're better and last longer?

TIA

MrsTicklemouse · 28/04/2010 23:11

Mine are bright pink which is my staple toe colour, I am going off it but haven't got a tan got a clue what colour to replace it with

Casmama · 28/04/2010 23:23

Barry M Racing Green - not at all fungal on toes and fingers - is that wrong?
