Sarah ‘nails’ her first column

 

Over to you Sarah....

 

 

This summer has welcomed the most versatile and flattering manicure season I have known and it is all about classic reds, chic corals, pretty pastels and mixed in metallics.

 

Ice-cream nails - creamy, delicious and calorie-free - look good enough to eat and the catwalk colours to be seen in are very much about gorgeous shades of lilac, ice blues and soft peach.

 

The beauty industry has been taken by storm by ‘Artistic Gloss’, which is a two-week manicure that has become one of our most popular treatments at purebeauty. 'Vi pink room' and 'your yacht or mine' are perfect shades to choose for a non chip, high gloss manicure which will last in the sun, sea and sand! It makes for a perfect pre-holiday manicure that lasts and lasts.

 

We love how the shades this season are so wearable and flatter every skin tone. Choose an ultra glossy top coat for a high fashion feel or jewelled glitter in 'bling bling' or 'dazzled' which adds a touch of sparkle and a bit of added fun.

 

And we must not forget our feet! Even though the weather is pretty dismal at the moment, when the sun shine finally hits us, sooner or later, make sure you are feet perfect to wear those summer sandals.

 

Essie Ultimate Spa Pedicure is the best luxury treatment for achieving super soft feet. You can choose
from a wide range of colours with our favourite at the moment being the Essies neon colour range 'Summer in St Tropez' - they are bright and bold and jazz up any toes! You can choose from super bright pink, hot red or vivid tangerine.

 

But if pretty pastels and neon is not your thing, why not unleash your wild side and choose animal print metallic?

 

Celebrities like Rihanna, Beyonce and Katy Perry favour the likes of gold cheetah minx and silver zebera print, but there are many more designs that last up to six weeks on the toes!

 

So who needs a new top or handbag when you can have Minx nails as the ultimate fashion accessory for a girls’ night out?
