Update Your Look for Less (*2) Go Green

Keeping with the theme of updating your look for less via polish, another current nail trend is GREEN. If you are feeling extra frugal and want to work with the colours you currently have instructions on how to make Fluorescent Green Polish using green eye shadow (THAT WORKS) is below.

DIY Green Nail Polish

This look works great with neutrals, like beiges, browns  tans, or whites (think earth tones). Avoid pairing with Green, ironically enough. Products featured listed below.

Update your Look (for Less) with Neon Nails

With the recent media coverage on unethical, unhygienic practices in Nail Salons + my commitment to a more 'frugal' lifestyle (about this here), my manicures and pedicures currently take place at home.

A big trend, as Summer 2015 creeps up on us, is the neon nail.

Word of caution is to avoid pairing this with black or white as it'll appear too overpowering, and to also base the colour (or ombre colours) on what is currently in your closet as a 'theme colour' (black again, doesn't work). For me, the theme colour is lime green.

Love it or hate it (?), at present, the Neon Nail is not just for your 6 yr old niece anymore. Shop the colours featured above.
