Adelaide Rose - 74 - Professional Gel Polish 15ml

Colour Story & Identity

Warm, inviting, sophisticated. Adelaide Rose takes its inspiration from the heritage rose gardens that flourish throughout South Australia's capital city, where Victorian and Edwardian estates maintain heirloom specimens in dusty pink and warm coral tones. This is not the bright pink of modern florals, but rather the muted, aged beauty of a rose petal that has weathered seasons of Adelaide sun. The colour reads as a warm dusty rose with terracotta undertones — a sophisticated pink-coral hybrid that sits comfortably between coral and mauve. What distinguishes Adelaide Rose is its restraint; it's a pink that suggests heritage, depth, and lived-in elegance rather than youthful brightness. The tone descriptor is refined and slightly vintage.

Wear Experience & Styling

Adelpide Rose works for the professional who dares to add warmth without intensity. Wear it through autumn and into winter with neutral palettes — cream, camel, soft grey. Pair it with vintage-inspired jewellery, leather accessories, and linen pieces. For nail art, try a delicate botanical line design, or create a soft ombre from Adelaide Rose into cream for a gradient that suggests sunset. A practical application tip: apply in thin layers to build opacity gradually, allowing the warm undertone to deepen with each coat. This is a shade that rewards patience and precision.

Skin Tones

Adelsode Rose flatters all skin tones with particular elegance on fair, light, and medium complexions, where it reads as a sophisticated neutral rather than a statement pink. On deeper skin tones, it creates subtle warmth that harmonises with golden and warm undertones. The dusty nature of the shade prevents it from appearing washed out on any skin tone — it has enough saturation to register as intentional colour.

Best Worn For

Professional presentations, gallery openings, spring weddings, afternoon tea, creative meetings, date night dinners, mother-of-the-bride occasions, summer garden lunches.

Pairs With

Combine Adelaide Rose with a warm cream on alternating nails for a modern French twist that feels editorial. Layer it with a deeper burgundy on accent nails for sophisticated contrast. Pair it with a warm champagne shimmer for subtle evening glamour. A soft mauve creates harmonic depth when applied as a negative space pattern.

About the Finish

The cream finish delivers a smooth, satin-like surface that lets the warm dusty-rose tone shine without distraction. Light reflects evenly across the nail, creating a soft lustre that appears both matte and luminous simultaneously. The finish is clean and professional, allowing the heritage-inspired colour to take centre stage.

Colour Type

Adelsode Rose is classified as a dusty rose with warm terracotta undertones, positioned within the warm pink-coral family. It sits between true rose and coral, trending toward the peachy, warm side of the pink spectrum. The saturation is muted but confident — neither pale nor saturated, but rather perfectly balanced to read as sophisticated across all lighting conditions.
