When I attended the Malan Breton spring/summer 2015 fashion show at New York Fashion Week, the designer gave out swag bags filled with goodies compliments of the Taiwan Government. One of those goodies was three bottles of nail polish from Nubar in traditional Chinese colors. The colors also complimented Malan Breton’s runway collection which you can view here. I had never heard of Nubar nail polish before, so I was excited to see it was both natural and vegan. As soon as I received Nubar’s nail polish, I took off my nail polish and painted my nails with this beautiful gold nail polish by Nubar; 24K. 

24K nail lacquer by Nubar is a rich gold nail polish which is eye catching and transcends seasons. The gold hue is a neutral metallic which plays well with any color palette and can easily be worn with silver or white metal jewelry. Love that! Nubar 24K  nail lacquer was also very strong. The nail polish stayed on my fingers for eight days without chipping. Love that!

I am excited to have been introduced to Nubar nail lacquer. The nail polish does not have a strong scent and applies evenly. It stays on for a week without chipping and is made from all-natural products. Plus, it is cruelty-free and vegan! Who could ask for more?

Dolce & Gabbana’s “Gaia” nail polish from the summer 2014 beauty collection “Summer Glow.” “Gaia” by Dolce & Gabbana is a beautiful amber green nail polish which sparkles in the sun: as you can see in the above photo. This medium green hue with amber undertones plays well with both gold and silver jewelry, as well as summer 2014’s color palette.

Green also happens to be one of fall 2014’s most important colors. Dolce & Gabbana’s “Gaia” nail polish is the perfect way to incorporate green into your summer wardrobe now and as you begin to transition into the fall when late summer arrives. Transitions into fall =  love!

I tested out Dolce & Gabbana’s “Gaia” nail polish with two coats of color and one base coat. The nail polish lasted for nine days without chipping! I even wore it on a vacation to Pine Mountain Lake where I was boating and swimming; and the nail polish stayed on perfectly! Love that!

Dolce & Gabbana “Gaia” nail polish is limited edition and part of the summer 2014 beauty collection, “Summer Glow.” It can be found online here and here.

Chanel “Orage” nail polish is a black nail polish hue from Chanel’s fall 2014 beauty collection. The nail polish shade is dark, vampish and an edgy way to be neutral for the upcoming cool weather season. With fall 2014’s dark autumn hues and contrasting bright colors, a black nail polish is the perfect way to have a neutral nail polish color which is easy to wear on a daily basis; especially if fall 2014’s nude nail trend is not your style.

I tested out Chanel “Orage” nail polish with two coats of color, one base coat and no top coat. The nail polish lasted seven days; which is really good for a dark nail polish without a top coat!

Chanel “Orage” nail polish from Chanel’s fall 2014 beauty collection can be found online here and here.
