Trend Alert: Bright Nails

A new trend has been on the rise for Spring 2012 and that is candy coated fingertips! As the weather warms up, so should your nail colors. What better way to welcome springtime that fun and funky colors?!

Seen above is a great collaboration with Thakoon & NARS. 

 

DIY Caviar Mani

Britain has introduced a new manicure trend called the “Caviar Mani” which uses beads to create a 3D effect on the most simple of manicures.  The Caviar Mani is simple to do yourself just sprinkle small beads over your favorite wet nail polish and let air dry for at least 15-20 mins.  Apply a top coat for extra hold and flaunt.  If you aren’t up for trying it on your own, UK nail polish company Ciate will launch kits exclusively to Sephora soon.

In for Spring: Contrast your Colors!

 

Today is the first day of Spring! How happy are you that it’s finally here?

This season, it is in to mix opposite colors to add punch to your look.

Color block your makeup by wearing a bright red with a aqua nail, like NARS Heat Wave and ESSIE Turquoise & Caicos.

March Beauty Madness!

Notice any similarities? This month, the top beauty & fashion magazines all featured nude lips on their covers! Instyle, W, Nylon, Allure, & Vogue all captured this lip in different variations. Depending on skin tone, shades of pinks, corals, and nudes can translate into a great nude lip. Want to try this look? We recommend Cle de Peau Beaute’s Enriched Lip Luminizer in Sweet Lychee (Adele’s Cover) or Covergirl’s Delish (Kim Kardashian’s Cover).

A Love Letter: Bond No. 9

 

 

Dear Bond No. 9,

Your store is Heaven to a girl who loves scents!

But, my favorite of them all is Bond No. 9 Nuits de Noho Body Silk.

The scent lasts all day, my skin stays velvety soft, and the mix of jasmine, patchouli and vanilla is a bonafide love elixir!

xoxo,

Indique

Doesn’t it remind you of a rainbow candy stick-very Willy Wonka!
