Nailing the Newsstands: June 2013

Tue, 18 Jun 2013 06:44:01 -0400

Once again it’s time to look to the latest fashion magazines to see what’s on trend this season. For the month of June many of the editorials are ready for summer, with beachy style and vibrant nails taking center stage. Others incorporate fall lacquer shades into warm weather locales, which turn out beautifully. Here are some of our favorite editorials from this month!

Our June Lacqueen Kate Moss spends a day at sea in playful prints, bold jewelry and bright white nails for British Vogue. A white lacquer like LVX Fantom is the perfect summer shade!

For Allure Russia, Kendra Spears is having fun in vibrant swimwear and chic outline nails. We love the matching lips and nails!

Candice Swanepoel stuns in Interview Germany wearing chic black lacquer. For a similar look, try Chanel Black Satin.

For Vogue Taiwan, Sung Hee Kim lounges by the pool in vibrant makeup and bright designer clothes. Her wavy nail art beautifully complements her graphic style.

Karmen Pedaru is the epitome of glamour for Vogue Germany in a trendy oxblood manicure. Recreate her chic nail style with Tom Ford Bordeaux Lust.

Jessica Hart looks gorgeous in a beige-grey lacquer for Cosmopolitan. Get the look with Chanel Frenzy.

June Lacqueen: Kate Moss

It’s hard to find someone more covetable in the fashion industry than Kate Moss. She has graced the cover of every major magazine and can be seen walking for the top brands each fashion week. Kate is muse to artists and designers alike, who find inspiration in her beauty and ability to transform in front of the camera.

Kate Moss definitely knows what’s hot in the nail industry, saying “Nails are a huge influence now, it’s part of the look now, it’s as much as the hair and make up.” She is a fan of the classic 60s almond nail shape and prefers to stick to solid colors in favor of nail art. She prefers neutral colors like grey and beige and uses lacquer as an accessory: “…if I want to make a statement, I’ll wear a brighter shade to add a flash of color to an outfit. Or I’ll choose a metallic polish, instead of jewelry to finish off a look.”

Recently Kate Moss has transitioned into being a fixture in the beauty industry with her Rimmel London collaboration. She works with the brand to create high-quality products inspired by the latest fashion trends. The line includes a range of lacquers whose formula includes Lycra, making manicures last up to 10 days with a gel-like shine.

Here are a few more of our favorite Kate Moss manicure moments!

Lacquerous Review: Priti NYC

Thu, 30 May 2013 17:15:23 -0400

Here at Lacquerous, we are always on the lookout for new lacquers to add to our growing inventory. We figured it would be a great idea to test out some brands and let our dear readers know how they perform.

Priti NYC is an organic, 5–free lacquer brand that prides itself on supporting organic farmers as well as reducing the amount of pollutants affecting the Earth through their nail polish. In addition to creating over 100 different shades, they also offer a soy based nail polish remover and a recycled glass nail file, proving that they are one of the top luxury eco-friendly brands on the market today. Priti NYC has also created Priti Princess, the first eco-friendly and non-toxic lacquer line for children.

The lovely people at Priti NYC sent me two shades from their Spring 2013 Sherbet Collection to try. These colors are light, shimmery and fab for spring!

Mermaid Rose is a creamy lemon yellow shade with fine glitter and a subtle pink undertone. This color is beautiful! The formula is thick but goes on smoothly. It provides complete coverage in just two coats. With a topcoat, Mermaid Rose stayed on for about 5 days with minor tip wear.

Remember Me is a pale orange cream with fine silver glitter. This shade is a dreamy creamsicle on your nails! Like Mermaid Rose, the formula has the ideal thickness, applies smoothly and is opaque in two coats. Remember Me also lasted a long time with just a bit of tip wear.

-Lauren ❤
