How-To Get Fun Yet Sophisticated Nails for Fall

Last week I found myself standing at the Estee Lauder counter at our local Macy’s. As I waited my turn I was drawn to the new nail colors they had displayed on the sales counter. I particularly loved the deep purple color but I couldn’t imagine myself wearing such a deep rich, non-traditional color over my whole nails. Well imagine my surprise when Estee Lauder sent me an email yesterday with this great technique that uses those very same colors! I still don’t know that I would ever wear green, to me it makes me think moldy, but I can imagine using the pretty neutral gold with the deep purple I love! They even supplied the video below!

So Estee Lauder asked Emily of Cupcakes and Cashmere to write up an article on this for their blog! As you can see and hear in the video she went to her favorite salon and asked them to develop a technique using this new line of nail polishes. I love the gilded nails look they came up with! How about you? Do you think you could accomplish the same look at home?

My favorite colors of polish are their Smashed! I think I will layer it on top of Explosif!
