Lacquerous: Is it OK to share Nail Polish?

Lacquerous: Is it OK to share Nail Polish?:

lacquerous:

The launch of Lacquerous sparked quite a debate on the sanitary issue of sharing nail polish. Beauty products are personal items and, of course, nail polish has the same affiliation. However unlike most beauty products, for years we’ve been freely sharing nail polish with our friends, at…

Like Warren Buffett says, share the wealth! Lacquerous is a “Netflix for Nail Polish” service that loans three designer polishes out at a time. Brands include Deborah Lippmann, Butter London and Chanel. Bottles are monitored for quality and quantity, so you’re hopefully not going to get stuck with a half-bottle of congealed pigment.

Two color fade with suede nail polish.

Base: Hailee (green) by Julep
Top: Nora (purple) by Julep

Playing color gradation with matte finish polishes courtesy of the November Julep Maven shipment.

To achieve a smooth finish, apply a thick coat of the base color. I recommend using the lighter color as the bottom layer. Let dry. With a light hand, paint the darker color on top of the base, pulling the brush from near the middle of the nail bed towards the tip.

Here’s a tip! Finish with a matte top coat. Regular or glossy top coats will ruin the suede effect. These polishes chip quickly and hot water seems to strip the sandy texture, leaving a light shimmer…which defeats the whole point of a suede manicure.
