“For Demi’s black French, we did a base coloration mixture, or what I name ‘nail basis,’” Minerva tells Attract, explaining that she will be able to customise the hue with two shades of polish for a extra seamless look. “I used one coat of OPI Naked My Soul, which is a lighter-toned milky nude, and one coat of Put It in Airplane Mode to provide it a hotter hue. This made the bottom really feel extra precisely matched to her pores and skin tone.”
