Hello lovelies, Pantone has announced new colour of the year, which is marsala. It is supposed to be a naturally robust and earthy wine red. Well this is the closest I got. It is a bit dark and more leaning to purple than red but it will do.
Marsala is also the first theme of this year’s first #naillinkup. I am very exited for this month, the girls have come up with some great themes – marsala, rubber duckies, newspaper and tie dye.
For the first theme I decided to go with something really simple, just 1 accent nails and some shimmer. I did do 2 versions – glossy and matte. Cause I just wanted to see how it looks like when matted out. Excuse me for some gravity defying polish though, I turned around the photos, so they’d look slightly better :).
base coat – CND Stickey
my chosen marsala colour – Essie Angora Cardi
white for stamping – Barry M Matt White
shimmer top coat – Misslyn Star Dust
stamping plate – BP-L001 from Born Pretty Store
top coat – Seche Vite
matte top coat – Barry M

Very pretty! The polish I am going to use looks very similar to this, yay! Heh..
Oh that’s awesome. I’ve seen so many versions of marsala that I’m not even sure what it is supposed to look like. So I went with what was written on their page π
What a beautiful manicure!
Thank you π
