The Weekly Nail Report

December 8, 2011

Nail-job craving: Something sparkly — yes, because it’s the holidays, but I also am trying to make someone else in my household feel more comfortable (more on that tomorrow!).

How I satisfied that craving: At the Revlon preview I attended yesterday at Tips Nail Bar, with two base coats of Smoldering (an elegant iridescent silvery lavendery shade, with a glittery layer of Stunning overtop.

How this nail combo make me feel: The look feels pretty versatile, like it can be dressed up (for a chic soiree)–the sparkle is subtle enough for it–or down (for a hipster bar). Whenever I look at my nails (which is more often than is healthy!) I think of that prismatic silver ribbon, know which one I mean?

Love it or hate it: Love, as did at least two other peeps at the event (one editor tried the same look, and the other is planning on it for a party she’s attending on the weekend)… I like to think of myself as a muse (kidding!).
