I generally get pedis year round, but some colors just feel right when it's hot out (and some feel very wrong, like my fav pedi color - NARS Midnight Express). Here's my summer-time list:
- American Apparel Malibu Green
(2 coats)
You didn't think I was gonna subject you folks to my feet, did you?
Love this color, but holy crap, I wore it ONCE as a mani and will never do that again. Stain city! Very pigmented formula. Could have gotten away with one thick coat. AA has some incredible polishes.
- Zoya Charisma (Sinful Dream On, Essie Perky Purple)
(2 coats)
This photo isn't even close to color accurate. I couldn't even fix it w/ photoshop. It's like my computer is telling me this color does not exist and is merely a figment of my imagination.
No matter what, you know what it looks like. You've seen Charisma or one of her cousins. It's a great "staple" neon. I love this color so much.
- OPI Cajun Shrimp
(2 coats)
Probably my favorite pedi color period. I did a pedi with this 3 times last summer and a couple times as a mani. Considering how many polishes I have...
- China Glaze Flip Flop Fantasy
(2 coats)
I'm fairly certain it was THE pedi color of the Summer of 2010 among NP enthusiasts.
- Milani Radiant in Purple
(2 coats)
Really any medium purple creme works in this space. It's a go-to for me.
I wonder what's in store for us this year...
