When I was checking out the new Estee Lauder spring collection I was drawn to the coral color (Coral Cult), but I thought it seemed too close to an old Sally Hansen to justify buying. So I pulled out Sally Hansen’s Coral Fever to check.

Dior Lime w/ Sally Hansen Malt – Y-Gap
I tried out a new combination with Dior Lime – I used a base of Sally Hansen Malt for a “y-gap” manicure, a design used by U.K. nail celebrity Sophy Robson.
