BLING! Rescue Beauty Lounge Spring 2009
Hold on to your hats ladies, because Rescue Beauty Lounge is bringin’ the bling for spring with its new Spring/Summer 2009 Collection.
Inspired by the sequined and metallic fashions seen on the runways from last September even amidst the current economic state, creator Ji Baek wanted to bring us all a little glitz and glam. Most of us can’t afford jeweled Lanvin sandals for $2,200 but we might be able to splurge on a sparkly bottle of nail polish.
For Spring/Summer 2009, Rescue Beauty Lounge offers three glitter packed polishes that shine like little jewels – more so if I would have applied a third coat versus two coats I did for all three swatches.
Locavore is mash-up of colors with gold, green, blue and silver glitter. I like the layers of colors in this shade – it’s fun to wear alone or even over a solid.
Frugalista is probably my favorite of the bunch with a silver base and speckled with purple glitter. I’ve already decided that I’m going to wear this shade all weekend!
Look Rich, Be Cheap is inspired by First Lady Michelle Obama who can don J. Crew and Jimmy Choo all in the same outfit. This mix of gold and purple is golden goodness in a bottle but I just wasn’t able to capture the full gold effect with my camera.
Which one of these sparkling polishes is your favorite and will be on your tips and toes this season?

Wow – These are stunning! Totally unique….
*sigh* Too bad the shipping for these beauties to Europe is totally ridicilous or I’d order myself some of these. So, I’ll just hang around in here ooogling your nails instead if that is ok with you?
Have a nice blig-bling weekend!

Hi fifrildi,
I hate that shipping always gets in the way. When I want my instant gratification, online shopping doesn’t do the trick
Hope you have a good weekend too! What will you be doing? I’m heading down to southern California to visit family again.

My God, Locavore is gorgeous! I’ve bought RBL polish before, and though the polish itself is always gorgeous, the formulation has to be one of the worst around. RBL polishes are so fiddly to apply and don’t stay on without a really good topcoat.

Frugalista is by fay the prettiest of the three.

Southern California sounds so nice. And warm! Norway is in the deep of winter – I fear all this snow will never melt. But I will go and play in the snow with my nephew this weekend, and that is the beauty of this long, cold winter – (Did I mention cold? *grin*)

Hi MandyPandy,
I don’t normally wear polishes without top coat – except for right now wearing Frugalista. And you’re right, it didn’t stay on for more than two days before it started chipping. However, I will say that I’m kinda diggin’ the grungy chipped glitter look and probably won’t take it off until tomorrow
How was your weekend? I hope you’re finally out of Asian wedding season!

Hi fifrildi,
So Cal is definitely sunny and warm for the most part. Although I sometimes wish I lived in areas where there are real seasons with sunny summers and white winters.
Have fun playing with your nephew this weekend! Sounds like a ton of fun
