RGB nail polish in Beach

RGB Beach
I can't decide if this nail polish is an elegant, understated neutral on me, or if it veers slightly into corpse-of-a-heavy-smoker territory. It gives me an almost perfect mannequin hand look (where the nails match the skin, like a mannequin).

Beach is from the RGB Spring 2011 collection. It's a caramel nude semi-sheer, and it applied beautifully. No streakiness whatsoever, and these pictures are with two coats applied (no top coat).

It's a nice change of pace from a pink or peach nude polish for a very work appropriate look. I think it'd work better on slightly tanned hands, so I'm looking forward to wearing it over the summer. 

Are you a fan of nude nail polish? What shades do you think work best for nude shades? I think I'm more keen on the bright/weird colours personally. 

RGB Cosmetics nail polishes are available from www.misebeauty.com here: Mise Beauty RGB nails.

  1. I like the look of the colour but know that it wouldn't work with my colouring, I find nudes hard to wear so tend towards dark or more bright shades. Although I have one really nice pale colour from Chanel which is peachy but I think thats pretty much it :)

  2. It looks nice although I think I'd like it more if it had more pink in it. I don't wear nude nail polishes, I haven't really found one that I'd like. If I don't want to wear a bright colour on my nails then I just paint them with a very sheer pink colour and that's it.

  3. Lovely nude color...I had a nude nail polish phase but switch between nudes and almost blacks...

  5. I'm wearing a pearlised version of that as I type! (Nivea Amaretti), it's a three coater, but a well behaved one, if you know what I mean - I'm sure you do.

    LOVING the mannequin hands thing at the moment.

  6. I like nude or soft nail polish colors long ago. I used up half a bottle of Christian Dior Shell way back. It was the only polish I wore then and it went with everything. Now, I like the funky wild colors, no need to stay nude. Although, I do like the one you are wearing now, like a sheer pair of pantyhose when everyone wore those.
