trendy mauve

Shades of pink and purple are great for any season. The pink flower against the dark plum nail polish creates a more soft/mauve colour.

you will need:
- base and top coat
- M67
- konad special polishes in white and light pink

try your best to paint your nails in a dark plum colour in order to create the soft mauve effect =]
suggestions:
- OPI "give me moor"
- OPI "linkin park after dark"
- Nubar "purple rain"
- Revlon "devilish"
- L'Oreal Paris "stroke of midnight"


Paint the small flower in white and the larger flower in light pink at the same time. Then place it however you like and they don't all have to be in the same direction =]

have fun =]
