Coonawarra Sand - 213 - Professional Gel Polish 15ml

Warm, grounded, and approachable. Coonawarra Sand draws its name from South Australia's renowned Coonawarra wine region, where distinctive red earth soils and sandy landscapes create a palette of warm ochre, burnt sienna, and dusty terracotta beneath endless sky. This is a warm, muted coral-tan with soft orange undertones and earthy restraint—the colour of sun-baked earth, of weathered timber, of natural sand warmed by afternoon light. The shade balances warmth with sophistication, offering brightness without aggression.

Coonawarra Sand works beautifully for everyday professional wear and relaxed social occasions. Pair it with cream, camel, warm grey, and soft pastels for effortless coordination. Wear with warm metallics and natural textures to amplify the earthy quality. The shade accepts minimal geometric work, thin metallic accents, and negative space designs with quiet elegance. Seasonal versatility is its strength—equally at home in summer's light fabrics and autumn's layered tones. Application note: this shade self-levels beautifully with a single, even coat applied with a steady brush; avoid overworking to maintain the soft, natural finish.

Skin Tones: Coonawarra Sand flatters warm undertones across fair, light, medium, and tan complexions. Fair skin with golden undertones finds the shade particularly flattering. Light and medium skin tones enjoy the warmth without overwhelm. Olive complexions with warm tendencies benefit from the muted saturation that prevents muddiness. Tan and warm-toned deep skin finds the shade wearable without appearing pale.

Best Worn For: Everyday professional environments and corporate settings. Casual social gatherings and friendly occasions. Relaxed weekend wear and leisure styling. Transitional seasonal dressing and wardrobe foundations. Creative workplaces and artistic professionals. Nature-inspired styling and outdoor activities. Travel and exploration moments. Effortless, approachable everyday confidence.

Pairs With: Snowy Mist for a warm-cool tonal contrast. Derwent Stone for a warm neutral study. Mulga Verdant for an earthy, saturated pairing.

About the Finish: The cream finish on Coonawarra Sand creates a smooth, warm sheen that feels organic and natural. Light reflects softly, producing a finish that reads as sun-warmed rather than polished—maintaining an approachable, grounded quality.

Colour Type: A warm-toned, muted coral-tan with low-to-moderate saturation and medium lightness. This is a tertiary colour blending orange, red, and brown frequencies—designed for warm undertones seeking wearability across professional and casual contexts without demanding specific seasons or occasions.
