According to Lucky magazine's February 2012 issue, celebrity nail tech Jenna Hipp and RBG owner Gina Carney collaborated on this line of four gorgeous neutrals called Nail Foundation. The nail stylist was on a quest to create the perfect nude shades and answered a few questions along the way.

Why Nude is So Flattering

"Nude nails seamlessly elongate your hands and nails. They work no matter how light or dark your skin might be, as long as you find the right shade," says Hipp.

How to Find the Perfect Shade for Your Skin Tone

"You can adjust the intensity of the beige undertones by mixing shades," says Carney. "I like to paint one coat of Nail Foundation and top with a favorite sheer neutral — you'll create a pinky or peachy or even bronzy look, depending on what you choose."

Chicest Color Ever

"F4, the darkest shade in the collection. It's the most universal and looks gorgeous on every skin tone," says Hipp.
