As the title suggests, today’s nail design is about red roses on grey. The grey part is played by Sally Hansen Xtreme Wear in Grey Area 330.

Grey Area is a complex color, with a name that suits it well. It looks grey in the bottle but somehow it’s a bit purple too, and a bit brown too. A perfect stormy mix of 3 colors in one bottle :) Much better than a simple flat grey.

Sally Hansen did a great job – Grey Area is smooth, creamy and opaque in two thin coats. It’s beautiful on its own, or as a base for nail art and other effects like glitters or color combinations. This time I combined it with China Glaze Kalahari Kiss in freehand lace nail art on my accent fingers.

Red roses on the tips are painted with Rimmel Riviera Red. I’ve already said a lot about that amazing red shade, so I’ll keep silence for today :))

For the red roses nail design I needed:

• Clear base
• SH Xtreme Wear Grey Area 330 (2 coats)
• China Glaze Kalahari Kiss 80528
• Rimmel Riviera Red 323
• Clear top

… and that’s it :) Thank you for reading, and see you soon!
