I’m into nail polish the way Juliet was into Romeo. Give me polish or let me die. Okay, so maybe I wouldn’t kill myself if someone suddenly took away my right to paint nails, but I would be extremely irritable.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n
I am, however, exhausted by mass-produced nail polishes. Don’t get me wrong — I do have some favorites. But there’s something about the quirkiness of an independent nail polish that really gets my creative juices flowing.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n
Today I’m reviewing three newish, up-and-coming nail polish brands that have earned my seal of approval. To accompany the reviews, I’ve also included nail designs created with the polishes along with brief how-to guides.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n
Floss Gloss, $8 each<\/strong><\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<\/figure>\r\n<\/div>\r\n\r\n\r\nIf you’re looking for funky and fresh then Floss Gloss<\/strong> is your go-to polish resource. They’re based in San Fran and the colors are simply to die for, darling. I’m talking hip, bold, not-your-chain-store-colors. For example, neon nacho is the exact same color as cheese whiz (a matte, super-glowy orange), Stun is an ultra flashy chunky holographic gold polish that would make Beyonce<\/a> jealous, and Wavepool (pictured here) is a retro-cool more-blue-than-mint hue that I can’t get enough of.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\nGet the look<\/em>: Apply Sally Hansen’s Golden-1\r\n \r\n \r\n \r\n <\/g>\r\n \r\n \r\n \r\n <\/clipPath>\r\n <\/defs><\/svg><\/span><\/a> polish to all your nails. Using a thin paintbrush, create three v’s with the Wavepool on four nails and a heart on the accent finger.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\nPolish & Co.<\/use><\/svg><\/span><\/a>, $12 each<\/strong><\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<\/figure>\r\n<\/div>\r\n\r\n\r\nEvery one of Polish & Co.’s nail polishes is good enough to eat. Think Marie Antoinette meets old school bubblegum Britney. The $12 per bottle price tag may throw you for a budgetnista loop, but you get a decent .5 oz supply that’ll last for a while. And finding colors similar (for less dinero) is a mission not even Christopher Columbus would take. The three colors I tried (Any Place Any Time, Mint to Tell You and Get Over it) are all dried medium-matte and super pigmented. One coat is definitely enough and pooling or streaking is not an issue.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\nGet the look<\/em>: Apply Any Place Any Time to full nail and let dry. Using a steady hand and paint brush (or striping tape), create a triangle on the bottom with Mint to Tell You. I was craving glitter, so I used Floss Gloss’s Dimepiece<\/use><\/svg><\/span><\/a> (a holographic silver glitter) for the accent nail and the top triangle. Using a striping tool, paint white lines to create an argyle design.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\nWindestine<\/use><\/svg><\/span><\/a>, $7 Each<\/strong><\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<\/figure>\r\n<\/div>\r\n\r\n\r\nWindestine<\/strong> began selling nail polish on Etsy in May of 2011. Since then, the store’s amassed nearly 1000 sales and moved on over to Big Cartel<\/use><\/svg><\/span><\/a>. Windestine’s specialty? Glitter. Amazing, glorious, make-your-jaw-drop glitter that’ll have everyone you know swooning. I predict a happy glitter explosion with this nail polish brand, so hop on the bandwagon before the polishes start selling out of stock.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\nGet the look<\/em>: Create a black to white gradient (easy tutorial here).
