Dermelect ‘ME’ Anti-Aging Colored Nail Lacquers

My nails aren’t exactly at their best right now. For some reason, they are more fragile than usual and prone to peeling. So I jumped at the chance to try the newly launched Dermelect ‘ME’ Anti-Aging Colored Nail Lacquers.

The set of six bold creme shades are infused with ProSina, a pure protein peptide extracted from New Zealand’s sheep’s wool. This protein provides strength to nails, making them less likely to chip or peel. The  patent pending technology allows the second coat to fuse with the base coat. The resulting web of color made this one of the longest-lasting polishes I have ever tried. I got a beautiful opaque coverage with two coats. After a week of wear, I have found my nails aren’t peeling and growing stronger.

Available shades:

  • Persuasive (luscious peach)
  • Provocative (fabulously fresh fuchsia)
  • Above It (breathtaking sky blue)
  • Head Turner (brilliant orange crème)
  • Luxurious (rich, confident lilac)
  • Power Trip (burst of red w/pink undertone)

The polish is DBP, Toulene, Formaldehyde, and cruelty FREE (no animal testing). These also protect nails from UV damage – perfect for a summer manicure. Available on www.dermelect.com and C.O. Bigelow in NYC.

Le Metier de Beaute Fall/Winter Mini Nail Lacquer in Dynasty

Tis’ the season for a festive red and there isn’t one quite as perfect as Le Metier de Beaute Fall/Winter Mini Nail Lacquer in Dynasty. The shade was part of the limited edition nail lacquer collection for Fall/Winter 2011 and is still available in stores. The collection was inspired by  jewels, spices and luxurious fabrics traveled along the Silk Road, just like the accompanying Fall/Winter Kaleidoscope Eye Kit. What color are you rocking for the holiday season?
