Sneak peek! Sally Hansen Exotica Collection!

Jessica Hoffman, manicurist to Kate Winslet, Gwyneth Paltrow and me *ahem* is in Dublin at the moment promoting the new Exotica Collection from Sally Hansen.  Look... So prettyyyyy...

The seven shade collection is inspired by tropical prints, mixed patterns and rather than being bright, in your face shades that we usually associate with summer, they make me think of lazy days on the beach and sun bleached wooden framed paintings that sit on decks overlooking the ocean.  There's something vintage-y about the colours and all I'm missing is shades, a sarong and flip flops.  And a beach.  And a pina colada.

I'll be swatching the seven shades later in the week but here's a little teaser to whet your appetite!

I got my nails did by Jessica where we chatted about things like using shoe storage for nail polish organisation and how nail polish is essentially an accessory for your hands before picking a colour and you can probably guess which shade I picked.  Go on, have a guess....

Yes, I am the coral queen, so Tahitian Sunset went on my nails!  This warm toned peachy, corally shade is me all over and has a touch of shimmer in it, so careful if you're driving and trying to admire your nails in the sun.

The Exotica Collection will be available in the usual places in May and will be €8.95.  Do you see any that take your fancy so far?  Stay tuned for swatches later in the week and keep an eye on Xpose this week where Jessica will be doing some nail tutorials!
