Currently starring in the event film The Odyssey, Charlize Theron is absolutely radiant in each of her appearances. At 50, the actress adopts the most irresistible and rejuvenating nail polish of the moment.
Undisputed ruler of the red carpets, the South African actress proves once again that attention to detail is very important. Her secret to enhancing her hands and displaying a fresh and sophisticated look after 50? A shade of varnish that is both bold and terribly elegant.
With each appearance, Charlize Theron gives a real lesson in style. Perfect complexion, natural elegance and flawless wardrobe: the actress has mastered the art of being chic in all circumstances. But this time, it’s at your fingertips that the magic happens. Abandoning nudes that are sometimes too muted or more classic reds, the Hollywood icon surprises everyone by wearing a pastel sky blue. A soft, luminous and modern shade that breaks the codes of traditional manicure after the age of fifty. Indeed, it is not because she will soon be 51 that she must confine herself to sober colors.
While women have long been advised to avoid fancy colors as they age, sky blue proves exactly the opposite. Thanks to its cool undertones, this color visually neutralizes redness and small spots linked to time. It catches the light and immediately restores freshness to the skin. Unlike a very clear neon blue or midnight blue, pastel remains discreet and poetic as we like it.
But then, how to adopt the sky blue manicure at home? It’s very simple! To reproduce this look with as much class as Charlize Theron, a few rules are still necessary. First, you should favor short nails. On acid pastel colors, the short and slightly rounded length is essential to maintain an elegant and sophisticated finish. Also, light and lacquered shades do not forgive irregularities. It is therefore imperative to apply a smoothing base before coloring. And to finish, apply a well-lacquered gel effect top coat. It is this mirror finish which will give this plump, fresh and perfectly cared for appearance to the manicure. Also remember that for visibly younger hands, it is essential to moisturize your skin well daily. A drop of cuticle oil every evening helps maintain an impeccable nail contour.
By daring to wear sky blue, Charlize Theron proves that style is ageless and that a simple touch of pastel color is enough to reinvent your look. And you, ready to fall for blue this summer?
