deborah lippmann Whip It

Press Sample 
As I mentioned this morning, deborah lippmann came out with a rainbow collection of cremes this summer, dedicated to the 80s. As an 80s baby, I feel a great obligation to rock these while singing. I won't sing on the blog though - I'll spare you that one. This is Whip It - a bubble gum pink creme.

I used a base of Cult Nails Get It On, 2 coats of polish and finished with Digital Nails Ain't Nobody Got Time For That.

This is a pretty accurate color photos of how this polish wears. Perfect applications, no pooling, and no streaks.

It looks a little dusty rose in the shade, but still has a great coverage and durability that is known to deborah lippmann polishes.

Indoors with some indirect light - happy pretty pink. Not much else to say - good color, wears well, applies perfectly. And you get a great Devo song to hum ALL DAY LONG.

deborah lippmann [official website] sells for $18 a bottle.  You can also Like her on Facebook and follow her on Twitter.

Disclosure: The product[s] in this post was [were] provided to me by the company for consideration.  For more information, please read this post.

deborah lippmann 80s Rewind & The Cure

CPNA: ORLY 2014

Earlier this month, I got to meet with ORLY during Cosmoprof North America to talk about what's coming up new for ORLY this year.

This fall, ORLY is launching "Smoky", a 6 piece collection of dusty hues and shimmers. Shades include Highlight (Grey Crème), Edgy (Antique Bronze Shimmer), Darkest Shadow (Black w/ Red Shimmer), Brush It On (Rose Bronze Duo Chrome Shimmer), Blend (Warm Taupe Crème), Smoked Out (Dark Green Matte Shimmer). It will available starting in September 2014.

ORLY Brush It On

Another thing coming out from ORLY is their new BB Cream.

Similar to the beauty benefits of a traditional BB for the face, ORLY’s BB Crème offers an all-in-one topical cosmetic treatment that perfects the look of natural nails for a healthy, flawless finish. The unique formula smooths the surface of the natural nail, hydrates to prevent breakage, brightens the surface and protects from damaging UV rays, while glass microspheres provide a brilliant chip-resistant finish with a sheer peach tint for natural nails perfected. 

TO USE: Apply one or two coats for desired opacity onto bare nails. Not meant to be used as a basecoat, topcoat, or with nail color. ORLY BB Crème will be available July 2014 and retails for $15.00. ORLY Nail Lacquers and Treatment products are available at orlybeauty.com.

I fell in love with the ORLY Instant Artists line when I got one in my Nail Art Society kit. Turns out, there is a WHOLE LINE dedicated to it. Not only that - it's TWO LINES! One is water based (the one I've tried) which is great for the error proned artist (like myself) because you can wash your mistakes off with water before sealing it with top coat. ORLY also makes a lacquer based line for those with more steady hands. Both can be purchased at orlybeauty.com.

ORLY also had their line of Rich Renewal on display.

For consumers, ORLY had their smartGELS line available to look at as well. Easy to apply, 2 weeks of wear, high shine and the ability to apply at home gives you the opportunity to make your ORLY last longer.

The Halloween collection and Winter collection were embargoed so I wasn't able to take photos but holy cow, Winter especially was amazing so stay tuned to PolishGalore!

Morgan Taylor Neon Collection
