Not content with its already extensive range of nail colours, American Apparel have decided to launch a line of six neon shades for summer. The limited edition lacquers will hit the shops soon (or if you can’t wait, you can already get ’em on the website.)
Though they’re not shades I’d wear on a daily basis (I rarely paint my nails anyway, but if I do, I tend not to stray too far from blood red), it’s a fun range for the festival season/carefree summer cocktails.
If you do opt to wear them, go for full impact by wearing several shades at once – ten neon green nails is perhaps radioactive in a bad way.* So it’s handy that the polishes, priced at €9/£7 each, are also on a 3-for-€21/£17 offer. Choose your shades wisely.
*Not that I think radiation is ever good. Figure of speech, folks.
