    Tortoiseshell manicures never fail to impress us. And with such a tricky shade as topaz, we’re doubly pleased with this approach. The dynamic cat-eye base adds further depth to this autumnal pattern.\n<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

    Citrine and topaz are very visually similar to gold, so don’t be afraid to use the precious metal as your starting point. A smattering of metallic stars\u2014in that same high-shine shade\u2014catch the light with every movement.\n<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

    If amber-hued gemstones aren’t your thing, explore topaz’s multifaceted shade range with a glimmering blue. A high-shine, glitter-packed polish adds to the gemstone feel.\n<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

    On the other hand, perhaps you’re searching for something more lowkey. We’d recommend a creamy mustard shade, which pulls from citrine’s yellow color without all the glitz.\n<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
