Gelish: Need A Tan

Remember my post about doing your own gel polish at home?  Well, I recently ordered a new color from Amazon.com and it came in the mail yesterday!  Needless to say I busted it out of the packaging and got it on my nails ASAP.  I am a huge fan of neutral nails especially in a professional work environment.  Don't get me wrong, I have worn many non-neutral colors at work, but I prefer to keep it tamed down.

This color is called Need A Tan.  I did 2 coats which still left it a bit translucent, but I'm totally ok with that.  My guess is 3 coats would be just enough to make it completely opaque.

I always buy my polishes on Amazon.com  My advice when doing this is to look at pictures of the polish on someone's hand. You can find these pictures in the gallery when you click on the polish you want.  Some will have pictures and others won't.  You will get a much better idea of what the color is actually going to come out like rather than just looking at the color on the bottle.
