Crystal Says: Weekend Beauty Reads

April 14th, 2012 by Crystal

I’m kind of obsessed with all things bright right now, and I have a feeling it’s not coming to a halt anytime soon. The “product inspiration” spot on my desk that I talked about here is crammed with bordering-neon lacquers. And with the arrival of the Thakoon for NARS Nail Collection on May 1st, my imaginary creativity board is spilling over.

From left to right we have Amchoor (bright yellow), Ratin Jot (orchid purple), Lal Mirchi (Mandarin red), Kutki (powder blue), Koliary (cyan blue), and Anardana (Azalea pink). Don’t these colors look magnificently saturated and creamy, even just by going with their promotional photos? Imagine how they’ll look in real life!

Butter London Spring/Summer 2012 Collection Review & Swatches

April 9th, 2012 by Crystal

Right now I’m really feeling Summery vibes. There seems to be a promise of warm sun and endlessly clear skies this year, and I hope I won’t be disappointed. After all, Spring beauty and fashion focused in on bright and happy looks that only created anticipation and excitement for what’s coming next.

If the Butter London 3 Free Nail Lacquers ($14 US) from their Spring/Summer 2012 Collection is any indication, I think everyone is going to be very pleased. I’m already inspired just looking at the beautifully appropriate colors in this five piece collection.

These are colors that will straddle both sides of the season and ease any nail wardrobe into a much welcome Summer.

Crystal Says: Weekend Beauty Reads

March 24th, 2012 by Crystal

Seeing a brand create fan-based collections like Rescue Beauty Lounge makes me feel all warm and fuzzy inside. In a day and age when some companies can feel impersonal or faceless, things like attentive customer service and listening to customers really sets others apart.

Back to the nail polish collection, The Fan Collection, which officially releases April, is available for preorder here until March 25th 12PM EST. It’s a gorgeous four piece collection of four fan’s dream colors, and each is more beautiful than the next! I’m thinking about ikb:2012 and aqua lily.
