Hello, South Moon Under readers! My name is Julia, and I write the fashion, beauty and lifestyle blog, Skopjanka. I am beyond thrilled to have the opportunity to collaborate with SMU and bring you further fashion inspiration! I love this store because it’s truly a one-stop shop for classic and spot-on sartorial trends in any season (from swimwear to winter coats), as well as beauty products for your most versatile canvas (yes, your face), and unique home décor to personalize the space where you live your life. My current obsession involves making the most of your all-natural accessories and optimizing them to reflect your glam side: polished fingernails! With a couple coats of low-cost products and a little creativity, you’ve got show-stopping glitz right at your fingertips—literally! I am all about unexpected combinations and plenty of glitter. For the look below, I applied one coat of Black Out by Sally Hansen Xtreme Wear, and a couple swipes of Hard Candy’s Break Up glitter.
To achieve this effect with South Moon Under, consider starting with a base coat of Butter London in an icy silver, topped with a few dabs of Deborah Lippman Happy Birthday, and sealed with Butter London Topcoat to ensure your glitter stays where you want it. Give it a try and let me know what you think! And once your nails are dry, head over to Skopjanka to check out my favorite SMU picks for summer. See you next time!
