Flinders Rust - 238 - Professional Gel Polish 15ml

**Colour Story & Identity**

Warm, earthy, and deeply saturated—Flinders Rust celebrates the distinctive iron-oxide-rich landscape and rugged beauty of South Australia's Flinders Ranges. This is a warm, medium-saturated rust-brown that carries the mineral essence of oxidised iron and weathered stone. The colour evokes ancient geological formations, natural earth pigments, and the warm glow of late afternoon light on red earth. Named after one of Australia's most iconic mountain ranges, Flinders Rust carries the sense of permanence, authenticity, and natural beauty. The colour is warm without being orange, brown without being muted—finding its own sophisticated middle ground.

**Wear Experience & Styling**

Flinders Rust works beautifully in warm-toned styling narratives and complements earth-inspired wardrobes. Pair it with cream, camel, deep olive, and rust accessories for cohesive, layered looks. In professional settings, it reads as confident and approachable. For nail art, it provides an excellent base for bronze metallics, warm-toned geometric patterns, or earth-inspired abstract designs. Layer it with cream or deeper brown accents for visual interest. Wear it solo for understated confidence. The self-levelling formula ensures flawless, even coverage that lets the colour's warmth and authenticity shine through.

**Skin Tones**

Flinders Rust flatters warm, olive, and medium skin tones beautifully, creating harmonious, skin-matched depth. Tan skin tones benefit from the saturation and warmth, which add definition and richness. Fair skin can wear it with intention—it becomes a defining feature in minimalist styling. Deep skin tones discover the warmth adds dimension without conflict.

**Best Worn For**

Casual professional settings, weekend outings, autumn gatherings, creative work environments, outdoor activities, nature-inspired events, travel styling, relaxed social occasions.

**Pairs With**

Pair Flinders Rust with Mulga Sage for sophisticated earth-toned depth. Combine with Hyams Pearl for natural contrast and definition. Use alongside Coonawarra Vintage for warm monochromatic luxury. Layer with Daintree Bark for rich, grounded support.

**About the Finish**

The cream finish creates a warm, inviting appearance that allows rust undertones to radiate naturally. Light sits warmly rather than brightly on the surface, enhancing the colour's authentic, mineral character. The finish honours the colour's geological origin.

**Colour Type**

A warm, medium-saturated rust-brown with iron-oxide undertones. The colour reads as naturally warm, earthy, and authentic rather than cool or austere. The saturation is full enough to command presence, the tone warm enough to pair easily with neutrals.
