Even during a distinctly sport-oriented weekend, our roving beauty eye never stopped. To our delight, we spotted a whole host of patriotic-ly painted nails, from the Union Jack nail wraps on our bronze-winning Rebecca Adlington, to the Olympic ring designs on the talons of beach volleyball hopeful Zara Dampney.
Although we may not be able to match their talent, we can mimic their nail-art style. And what better way to show your Team GB support?
These nail wraps from Rebel Nails with London landmarks silhouetted against a Union Jack design, offer a quirky take on the standard red, white and blue designs.
Or if you’d like to create something a little more personally-styled, why not get creative with this limited edition trio kit from Mavala, and a selection of Orly’s Instant Artist nail paints, we’re going to be using True Blue, Fiery Red and Crisp White.
We’ll be taking inspiration from these CND Shellac created wonders. . .
And with hopes of winning ourselves some Olympic Gold medals, we will be proudly flashing these golden wraps.
