We love when all the make up shades switch up from Winter colours to bright, vibrant Summer colours. So we thought that we’d share with you essie’s new Spring collection. There are 5 bright shades (From L-R clockwise) – High class affair, Off tropic, Pool side service, Lounge lover, Shades on and Sunshine state of mind. We’re definitely going to get Pool side service and High class affair. Which one is your favourite colour?
On a more important note – we thought we’d let you know about a little competition that essie have going on.
essie and photographer Rankin are partnering to celebrate beautifully painted nails, and the stunning, stylish spectrum of essie’s collection with their long-awaited ‘Colour Portrait Studio’.
Designed to bring confidence to women every day, the incredible nail colour range features over 900 colours globally, and is at the heart of the Colour Portrait Studio, opening for one day only on Tuesday 17th May at a secret Central London location. Hundreds of colours will be brought to life on the day, where colour confident women from across the country will have their own slice of stardom at their fingertips.
Attendees at this coveted event will be treated like VIPs from start to finish, having their nails polished by essie manicurists, and their hair and make-up professionally done ahead of their very own once-in-a-lifetime photo shoot with Rankin.
essie is offering everyone the chance to secure a place and be polished and snapped like a star. This unique opportunity will be open until the 28th April. Attendees will leave with their very own colour portrait by Rankin….starring their beautiful essie nails!
To enter the competition, simply follow essie on Facebook, Twitter or Instagram and upload your best nail selfie using #essiexrankin and @essieuk. Better still, below are some top tips from lead manicurist Rita Remark to guarantee your nail selfie is as fabulous as you are:
· Before painting your nails, clean thoroughly with soap and water to remove all dirt and residue from your nails…it also doesn’t hurt to use a bit of hand sanitizer too
· Always use a base coat – not only does it anchor your polish, but it also protects your nails like a shield. This is an essential step for the perfect mani!
· Remember nobody’s perfect! If you colour outside of the lines, just take a make-up brush dipped in a little bit of nail polish remover, and it wipes away like it never happened. Just make sure you remember to wash it thoroughly before using it again!
Entry to the Colour Portrait Studio closes on the 28th April, for full terms and conditions visit essie.co.uk
