As a child, one of my very favorite thing to do was color. While creating for hours on end with my jumbo box of crayons, I would periodically attempt to determine once and for all–what color is most beautiful? After careful and lengthy deliberation, I always narrowed down the pack to two shades: blue-green and green-blue. Ultimately, blue-gree, would always win the beauty contest by a nose.
So when I first set eyes on MAC Cosmetics Summer 2010 collaberation with Alice + Olivia, “Morning After” Nail Lacquer (the gorgeous turquoise shade pictured at center) was the very first product that caught my eye. It is the exact shade of that perfect, most-beautiful blue-green shade I always admired as a child!
The Alice + Olivia makeup collection contains three different shades of long-wearing nail lacquer, each in a different finish. As always, the MAC formula is free of DBP, Toluene and Formaldehyde. I’ve said it once, and I’ll say it again… MAC Nail Lacquer wears so well! I’ve had a pedicure last for a month, chip-free!
Swatch above: Morning After, a blue-green shade with a cream finish.
Swatch above: So Rich, So Pretty, a bright purple shade with a frost finish.
Swatch above: Military, a gritty asphalt shade with a matte finish.
I suppose So Rich, So Pretty is the most appropriate shade selection for a 30-something Mom, but I love the whole collection–age appropriate or not!
Retail price is $12 per bottle.
