Rescue Beauty Lounge Anne

Hello peachies! Is everyone ready for the holidays? Anne is an olive green with fine fuchsia and gold shimmer throughout the polish.  Rescue Beauty Lounge is a 4-free brand (free of toluene, formaldehyde, DBP and formaldehyde resin.)  Anne is one of four colors in the Fall 2010 Housewives of Tudor Dynasty collection.  The formula was the Rescue Beauty excellent standard.  I only applied two coats for complete opacity.  This color is so luxurious and velvety.  Anne looks dark olive green indoors but sparkle some sunlight on Anne and you will see those awesome shimmers.  This polish definitely has depth with the gold and fuchsia shimmer really showing through depending on how the light reflects which makes this polish a stand-out. A lot of people have asked me what base and top coat polish I use.  Well, I started using Poshe Nail Strengthening Treatment Base Coat a couple of months ago and have been satisfied thus far.  For the top coat, I have went back the Seche Vite.  I just haven't came across anything else like it.  It makes your nails shiny and hard as ever.  Anyway, want Anne?  It is at www.rescuebeauty.com now as a part of the Bring It Back 2 polish series so you might want to hurry up and get it. It is 18 bucks.  Until next time...

Neutral in November Post #5: Rescue Beauty Lounge Piu Mosso (Fall 2011 L’Oiseau de Feu Collection)

Hey peachies! Piu Mosso is a blackened navy with peachy orange flash of shimmer.   Rescue Beauty Lounge is a 5-free brand (free of toluene, formaldehyde, DBP, formaldehyde resin and animal testing.)  Piu Mosso is one of four colors in this collection.  In case you are wondering, L’Oiseau de Feu means “Firebird.”  Rescue Beauty Lounge’s formula is known for its smoothness and ease of application and Piu Mosso is no exception.  For real, I only applied one coat and if you have being a frequent reader of my blog you know that I rarely apply just one coat!  Navy is one of my favorite neutrals because it can sometimes be what I called “The Forgotten Neutral.” Ji Baek (the mastermind behind Rescue Beauty) hits the spot with this color. The inky base color and flash of peachy orange are separately noticeable, especially in outdoor lighting.  I just wished I  a smidgen more of the orange flash translated on the nail.  Even with that small complaint, I have nothing like it in my collection; it is definitely unique.  Gotta have Piu Mosso?  It retails for $18 at www.rescuebeauty.com. 

Neutral in November Post # 3: Rescue Beauty Lounge (Iconic/Ironic Spring 2011 Collection)

See the subtle shimmer...

Hi peachies!  Iconoclast is an intense black shimmer.  The pink and green shimmer gives it a metallic look.  It is so fabulously smoky that I would either describe it as a black shimmer or the true color of coal, successfully teetering the line of black and the darkest of charcoal grey.  Rescue Beauty Lounge is a 5-free brand (free of toluene, formaldehyde, DBP, formaldehyde resin, and animal testing.)  Most of black shimmers usually don't appeal to me because either the shimmer is so invisible that it might as well just be a black creme or so visible that it looks like lint on black giving a grubby look to the polish. The formula is Rescue Beauty standard. By that statement, I mean flawless. I think it can be a one-coater but because black can be messy, I maintained better control by applying two thinner coats.  The rich base color and multifaceted shimmer are in perfect tandem.  Iconoclast is the softest black I've ever seen while effectively maintaining the edginess that black polish creates.  Rescue Beauty has done it again.  My verdict?  This will definitely be my new go-to black.  Want Iconoclast?  Unfortunately, it is sold out right now on www.rescuebeauty.com.  Ji, the mastermind behind Rescue Beauty Lounge, informed me that it is gone for good:(  I know MAJOR bummer. I will definitely keep you updated if she changes her mind or if I find a dupe.  Until next time...
