15 Piece Brush Set, Black
We know you’ve heard of Real Techniques brushes (If you haven’t, check out our post about them!). These brushes are sleek, cruelty-free and all sorts of amazing. The Real Techniques Brush Sets have taken the world by storm (see reviews of them here and here), and now it’s time for the single brushes to take the stage. Let’s have a look…
Remember our post on the exquisite CND Vinylux line? Several of our fans sent us email via the website to request more colors. We heard you loud and clear! We now carry 46 shades of CND Vinylux, plus the CND Vinylux Weekly Top Coat!
Hi everyone! We have an exciting announcement for you! We now have the amazing Color Club Halo Hues 2013 holographic shades available for purchase on our site and in-store. We’re absolutely blown away by the amazing rainbow sparkles of this collection.

We shot some quick snaps of these beauties in-store. It’s so hard to capture the amazing rainbow sparkle! You definitely have to see these in person to appreciate the full effect.

OPI has just announced the launch of the OPI Matte Top Coat and OPI Matte GelColor Top Coat, coming April 2013. OPI finally jumps on this fashionable bandwagon and joins the matte revolution. We personally LOVE a sexy matte finish so we are very excited to be able to share this news with you!
“A matte finish can be worn over any OPI nail lacquer shade and should be applied after the base coat and primary coats of color to give nails a unique look,” says Suzi Weiss-Fischmann, OPI co-founder and artistic director. “Using Matte Top Coat to transform any shade in your collection makes it a more versatile and budget-friendly way to embrace the matte trend. Give your favorite lacquers an update with a new finish without altering the color.”
OPI Matte Top Coat will transform any nail lacquer of your choice to a beautiful soft matte finish. And the OPI GelColor users will be excited to hear that they can also enjoy a velvet finish on their nails with the OPI GelColor Matte Top Coat. Designed specifically for use with GelColor products.
Also launching is this OPI Flash On Matte set, featuring the OPI Matte Top Coat with free shimmer dust in gold and silver. The perfect addition to the nail art lovers collection! We can’t wait to get our hands on this set and start playing around with the glitter dust. Who doesn’t love the combination of matte and glitter?! We’re a fan!
OPI Matte Top Coat and OPI Matte GelColor Top Coat are expected to arrive this April 2013. We have them available now for pre-order on our site!
It’s become a tradition for OPI to release a collection of Soft Shades each year. For 2013 they were inspired by Disney’s Oz the Great and Powerful, and created 3 nudes, 3 glitters and 1 Liquid Sand for their annual OPI Soft Shades collection. Let’s take a look!
“OPI is very excited to take this fantastical journey with Disney,” explains Suzi Weiss-Fischmann, OPI Executive VP & Artistic Director. “Inspired by the magic of Oz The Great and Powerful, this Soft Shades collection captures the whimsy seen in the film, from glittery shades packed with white, gold and silvery iridescent confetti – Lights of Emerald City, When Monkeys Fly! and Which is Witch? – to soft neutrals in white, beige and pink – Don’t Burst My Bubble, Glints of Glinda and I Theodora You.
The three neutrals in the collection include:
These are the three glitter polishes released for the OPI Soft Shades of 2013:
And finally, the Liquid Sand finish released alongside this collection:
We love this collection! Even though they are soft shades, they are definitely NOT boring! The glitter polish, Lights of Emerald City, has amazing square white glitter pieces. Something we haven’t seen before in the mainstream polish brands. We’re definitely intrigued and can’t wait to try them out in person.
These will be available for purchase very soon, for now you can purchase them in our store, Phoenix Beauty Lounge. Make sure to take a look!
