So I know that many of you were annoyed with me when I told you about the nail polish collaboration between MAC and manicurist Jin Soon Choi without showing you the colors.
But now we can finally give you a look at Nail Trend F/W ‘09, which is available starting August 27th.
My favorite switches every time I try a new shade. Though right now, I’m rather partial to the khaki green. But as I said before, what I like the most is that they actually feel new.
Which one do you like best?

I do love the colors, but I have a question. I hate to be a buzzkill, but I used to work for MAC, and my fellow artists and I would lament over the short life of polishes, i.e. chipping on the first day. Once in a great while, usually with the cream finishes, they would hold up. So, have you noticed that they wear well, Abby? If not, I guess it just gives one an excuse to put the next color on! :)
Oh, and #6, I believe they are free of both of those ingredients, if I remember correctly. MAC is pretty good with that sort of thing.

Guest #7: They actually do wear really well! My pedi lasted almost 3 weeks. And were I not someone who has the bad habit of picking off my polish, I'm sure my manis would have lasted much longer than they did.

#7: I painted my nails in Peppermint Patty from MAC a few days ago and no chips as of yet, but I guess it remains to be seen how they really hold up. I'm excited for this collab, but I hope the formula is a bit improved. If you use too little, it's very sheer and streaky but if you use too much, it's incredibly gloppy. I don't get it. But I love a lot of MAC's colors so I put up with it :) I love that khaki green, as you said, and the last color. I love "weird" colors on my nails instead of the typical red or pink.

Last March, a few designers embraced the one off ad. Ads are expensive, and if you've got the momentum of a Rodarte or a Phillip Lim, unnecessary (for now). Unless of course the economy tanks. One of the designers who gave the idea a shot, Zac Posen, shot this ad… Read More
