mani monday: nars nail polish reformulation

fresher and cleaner than ever.

Too many bottles of nail polish remover have been sacrificed to my done-at-home manicures, in which air bubbles, unevenness, bedsheet marks, and chips are certifiably inevitable. I've searched long and hard for some brand—some miracle—that would save me from the shame, but even the most promising bottles never lasted more than three uses before conking out. I am now happy to announce that after my 21 years on this earth, I have finally found one that does. Beauty fans, rejoice with me!

Cult favorite NARS is releasing 43 new polishes, and thanks to a special revamped formula consisting of a combination of resins and polymers, it's easy to create a long-lasting, ultra-glossy mani-pedi from your own living room. The collection contains 24 fan favorites and 19 new hues, spanning about every shade a girl could ever hope for. My favorites? "Kalymnos," a deep lilac, "Ikiru," a Bahamas-blue, and "Thasos," a minty blue-green. Check out the rest of the new options in the slideshow and let me know what your favorite is. 

You can get your fix at NARS' boutique and online stores July 15 and Sephora, department, and specialty stores August 1.
