Peridot Nails
A yellow-green manicure color named after the August birthstone, sitting closer to chartreuse than emerald, worn as a glossy creme, a sheer jelly, or a light-catching velvet cat-eye. The tone reads as late-summer citrus in bright light and shifts toward early-fall olive as the season turns.
