Before I had kids I used to keep my nails painted at all times. I sort of let that go but a quick and easy beauty pick-me-up for moms really is a pretty coat of quick drying nail polish.The quick drying part is key, at least for me! Essie’s Fall Collection 2011 features colors inspired by clean lines, post-war styles and the colors of handbags. The classic shades have been reinvented for modern times. The collection includes 6 rich, seductive colors perfect for the season:
- Carry On- magnetic mulberry merlot
- Glamour Purse- almond blush
- Case Study- rich camel beige
- Power Clutch- enigmatic darkest green
- Very Structured- creamy burnt sienna
- Lady Like- pretty demure pink
Essie nail polish is high quality and always on-trend. It doesn’t contain formaldehyde, DBP or Toluene. The full fall collection retails for around $36 or $8 per bottle at Meijer Stores. Swipe on some color for a beauty boost!
My personal favorite colors are Carry On- a very pretty deep fall color, Lady Like which is a very subtle hint of color and Glamour Purse, an interesting mauve-ish brown. The color goes on really smooth and dries super quick. The darker colors can use two coats but with the fast drying time, there’s no waiting between coats. I love this stuff!
