NARS Summer 2012 Nail Polish Review and Swatches
Written by Elessa, Posted in NARS, Product Review, Swatches
Creamy and gorgeous polishes from NARS
Fashion and beauty have always gone hand in hand. Now, those hands have the nail polish to match. Introducing the Thakoon for NARS Nail Collection, the brand’s first collaboration with a fashion designer in the nail category.
Already frequent collaborators at New York Fashion Week, founder and creative director Francois Nars has partnered with Thakoon Panichgul to develop a limited edition, six-shade nail collection.
In conceptualizing the shade range, Thakoon was inspired by the vibrant colors found in Indian spice markets. The highly saturated, high-shine shades come in an opaque finish, perfect for spring. Formula is long-wearing, chip-resistant and toluene-, formaldehyde- and DBP-free.
Since his first collection in 2004, the Thailand-born, Nebraska-raised designer’s clothes have graced chic, modern women around the globe, including Jessica Alba, Marion Cotillard, Rachel Bilson, and First Lady Michelle Obama.

My Fave are Amchoor and Koliary. At first glance Kutki is sort of close to “For Audrey from China Glaze” but it is lighter and appears a bit more blue to me.(See Image below to see what I mean)
Do any of these colors peak your interest?
I loved the yellow one so much I even did an instagram photo with it. See below and don’t forget to follow me there. Elessa Jade
