Mannequin Hands with OPI Sand In My Suit
Mannequin Hands is a new series featuring ALU Fanatics showing off their “mannequin hands” shade. The one polish that best gives that elongated, flesh-toned look to their hands.
The Mannequin Hands series continues on. Today the Polish Hoarder shows off OPI Sand In My Suit and here’s what she has to say about it,
“I don’t know what made me buy this polish. I’m drawn more to bright, unique colors. I think I got it because it was like nothing I already owned. I’m so happy I did! It’s such a pretty nude color. How can a skin-toned color be pretty? It has tiny shimmers! In the summer, when my hands are much more tan, this color makes my nails pop from my fingertips! The shimmer reflects light like a string of pearls. It’s just gorgeous!”
Who else uses Sand In My Suit for the Mannequin Hands look? I hope the Polish Hoarder will let us know what her skintone is so you can possibly find your hand twin.
Mannequin Hands with China Glaze Seashell
Mannequin Hands is a new series featuring ALU Fanatics showing off their “mannequin hands” shade. The one polish that best gives that elongated, flesh-toned look to their hands.
Gina from Prim and Polished is the subject of today’s mannequin hands. Gina is a MAC NW30 and she chose China Glaze Seashell. This is what she has to say about it:
“I think it’s a great Mannequin-esque color. Perfect for work. A touch more peachy than nude but flattering I think.”
Are any of you Gina’s hand twin? Have you tried China Glaze Seashell before? If you have Gina’s coloring, what polishes have you discovered for that perfect “mannequin hands” look?
Golden Globes Nail Watch – Ginnifer Goodwin & Jeanne Tripplehorn
Big Love “sister wives” Ginnifer Goodwin and Jeanne Tripplehorn braved the rain-soaked Golden Globes carpet together looking, quite frankly, like a mother-daughter duo. Jeanne’s matronly dress does no justice to her beauty though she does score points in the nail department for donning a chic, browned-grey nail.As mentioned on E!’s Live From The Red Carpet, the co-stars spent their pre-show time together as well, with pampering manis & pedis at Recess Organic Nail Spa in LA accompanied by Ginnifer’s mom. Get the full scoop on their nail polish choices and see my color swatches after the jump! |
Mannequin Hands at the Golden Globes
“Mannequin Hands” made their way down the Golden Globes red carpet on the tips of Fergie and Mariah Carey last night. What a fun coincidence that they are both singers in nominated films rocking the flesh toned polish. Of course you need to look past Mariah’s in-your-face cleavage to even notice her nails but perhaps that why she chose such a subdued shade.
Those of you who have seen Nine, is there any angle I can sell the boyfriend on to get him to see it with me or is this strictly a take-your-girlfriends type of flick?
What do you think of their mannequin hands? Are you feeling Fergie’s extreme oval shape? What colors would you guess they’re wearing?
Golden Globe Nail Watch – Kate Hudson
Kate Hudson surprised me on the Golden Globes red carpet. Known for her boho chic style, this structured Marchesa gown threw me off guard and I seriously don’t know HOW she made it through the night in those shoes. I feel wobbly just looking at them.
To contrast the bright white hue of her dress, Celebrity Manicurist Deboarah Lippmann chose a cherry red creme for her nails. See which shade she used on Kate and check out my swatch of the nail polish after the jump! |
