Mannequin Hands with Essie Be Right Bag
Posted on January 4, 2010
Mannequin Hands is a new series featuring ALU Fanatics showing off their “mannequin hands” shade. The one polish that best gives that elongated, flesh-toned look to their hands.
Our first entry in the Mannequin Hands series comes courtesy of Candice who chose Essie Be Right Bag. Candice is a MAC NW35/40 and this is what she has to say about the color,
“I’m not generally a fan of nudes, but in a pinch, when I don’t have time for a meticulous paint job, I’ll throw this on rather than go without.”
Has anyone found their hand twin in Candice? Who else keeps a bottle of Essie Be Right Bag on hand as their go-to “nude”?
Don’t forget, you have until January 15th to share your Mannequin Hands with the group. CLICK HERE for more details.
I’ll pass on this “elongated” look, people always tell me I have the longest fingers they’ve ever seen.
Like TipsToToes, I already have long fingers, so I might be skipping this trend. But since I’m a polish addict (I admit it!), I can’t help but be intrigued. Even though it kind of looks like a clear coat on Candice’s nails, I was happy/excited to see this swatch with NW35 skin. She’s my hand twin!! XD
I wish I had long fingers. I have stubby fingers with short nail beds. I’m trying to find my perfect “mannequin hands” shade to see if it does anything for my hands.
Wow that polish is so nude, I don’t even see it? It looks like a clear coat..now thats NUDE!
I have tried to get into nudes, but my pale skin (NW20 or even lower) looks dead with light tones. Gold is about as light as I can go without wanting to change my polish right away. And, trends bore me…I like being different
!
I hear ya. I certainly prefer color but since I get a lot of requests for this type of shade, I figured this would be helpful.
Of course! That’s why we love you…you cover everything!
