When it comes to nails I love nothing more than a gel manicure. It’s quick, easy and means you don’t have to worry about your nails chipping for the next few weeks. While going to the salon every three weeks can be time consuming and a little expensive, one of the best beauty discoveries for me was the at home gel manicure kit. Especially the one from Red Carpet Manciure. I’ve previously blogged about my love of the Red Carpet Ready Range, which is why I was really excited to try their new summer collection – Escape to Paradise.

This six piece collection is full of summer brights that are idea for wearing on your hands and feet in the sunshine. Unlike the Red Carpet Ready range, this one requires the base coat (Structure) and the top coat (Brilliance). But that minor detail aside, here are the six shades:

Red Carpet Manicure Escape to Paradise Collection – Frolic in the Sand

Frolic in the Sand is a gorgeous peachy cream shade. I love wearing this on my nails when you want just a subtle hint of colour.
Red Carpet Manicure Escape to Paradise Collection – Yacht happin’

Yacht Happin’ is one of my favourites from the collection. I love the muted mint green, it looks fab on your hands or feet!
Red Carpet Manicure Escape to Paradise Collection – Poolside Fling

Poolside Fling is really lovely. This stunning teal shade is pretty unusual and not a colour I normally wear but as soon as I swatched this I had to try it – it’s gorgeous and goes really well with a tan!
Red Carpet Manicure Escape to Paradise Collection – Until the Sun Sets

Until the Sun Sets is another great one with a tan. The pinky coral colour is the perfect summer shade!
Red Carpet Manicure Escape to Paradise Collection – Sun Kiss & Tell

For those who love Neon, Sun Kiss & Tell is the one for you! This hot pink colour looks lovely on the hands and feet and is a great summer shade!
Red Carpet Manicure Escape to Paradise Collection – Boats & Heels

Boats and Heels is another unusual colour for me. I normally wait until Autumn to bring out the purples, but this one is so bright, it’s perfect for summer!
Each shade in the Red Carpet Manicure Escape to Paradise collection costs £12.95 and is available from their website.
Have you tried home manicure kits before? What’s your favourite shade to wear in the summer?





I’m addicted to buying nail varnish but I don’t wear them because I bowl so much ahha I love the blue colour!
I think Rachel will really like half of these shades if she sees this post, the purple is an amazing shade!
