Celeb manicurist Tom Bachik (seen in the photo prepping Eva Longoria's nails for a recent shoot) has just been named L'Oreal Paris' new Consulting Nail Expert (a job that I kind of now want because really, isn't that title just the coolest? So much better than 99% of job titles out there). Tom recently talked about fall nail trends and what he forecasts being huge this autumn and since I can never resist a good reason to expand my polish collection, here they are:
Trend #1 - Mixing texture and dimension
“I think mixing texture and dimension is important. If going with a chunky metallic on toes, go with a rich deep ‘creamy’ color (as in no shimmer) on finger – and vice versa. If wearing a full-coverage nude on toes, then pair with a rich deep shimmer shade with dimension to the fingers.”
Trend #2 - Antique metallics and full-coverage nudes on toes
“I love antique metallics and full-coverage nudes on toes, so there’s no competition with all the great shoe colors for fall. Keep color on the fingers to play off lips and eyes.” (Not only is this trend making me excited for fall, it's making me want to shop for shoes!)
Trend #3 - Classic looks in deep, rich tones like burgundy and eggplant
Trend #4 - Sheer shimmery lace
“Sheer shimmery lace is a big fall trend. A great look I've started to do as summer wraps up is to use a single coat of a shimmery metallic on nails, so the color stays sheer but sparkly. It’s a great modern take on nudes that stays sophisticated and chic.”
To stay on top of these trends, check out the L'Oreal Paris Colour Riche Nail display at your local drugstore. They have a really great range of shades and they're less than $6 apiece, so you can go crazy AND still afford to pick up a stack of magazines and a bottle of wine. (Well, if you're in Los Angeles you can, because they oddly sell wine at CVS here. California is a weird, weird place sometimes).






Not just wine... you can go to the drugstore and pick up some whiskey with your cough syrup (or nail polish)! :-D
