Everyone can probably agree that this winter has been brutal, and some mint green and baby pink sounds pretty damn good right now. Anything but slush gray. Eighteen new spring nail polish collections right this way.

You are not going to be disappointed.

Colorless color can be tricky.

Nail art--in its over-the-top 3D incarnation, at least--is waning in popularity a bit, and polishes aimed at giving you a nail art-y feel without all the work have been taking its place. We tried tons of the so-called textured polishes--here's what we think.

Illamasqua, the UK beauty brand known for innovative and often peculiar color palettes (and this amazing speckle polish), just released a summer makeup collection that includes polishes that glow in UV light. Yes, you can now turn your fingertips into club-worthy glow sticks.

It's now officially March, which means that spring is finally close. And much like the leaves and flower buds, new spring nail polishes are popping up everywhere. Check out the whopping 23 collections we dug up.

We know you're dying to get a jump on incorporating emerald, the 2013 Pantone color of the year, into your wardrobe as soon as possible. Sure you could go out and buy this, but we suggest starting out small. Nail polish is the perfect way to go green.

Illamasqua, the UK beauty brand helmed by edgy makeup artist Alex Box, is dealing with a very vocal customer backlash today over its new holiday ads.

Why wait until spring to try out this juicy trend? All our fave orange lip colors are right this way.

Now here’s a collaboration you don’t hear about everyday: cosmetics for funeral parlors. Think about it, though. Funeral homes must go through a lot of makeup. It’s a wonder someone hasn’t come up with this sooner. Illamasqua, the Brit makeup brand known for theatrical and decidedly goth looks, is the mastermind behind a collaboration with London-based Leverton & Sons funeral directors. According to Illamasqua’s blog:

It's Easter this weekend, and that means miracles (if you believe in that sort of thing), chocolate, and lots and lots of pastels. In an ode to spring and Easter, we present the season's best Easter egg makeup. (If pastels make you queasy or want to hit someone, you may want to skip this one.) A word of caution? Use one at a time and use them sparingly. Click through to see all the sweet looks.

Illamasqua, the UK makeup brand known for its bright colors and eccentric artist-cum-Creative Director Alex Box, is gaining a bit of a foothold here in the US. It’s sold at Sephora and has been blessed by Pat Field. With the release of its new Toxic Nature nail lacquers--coming in April--we suspect the brand will pick up more fans. There are five colors in the collection and they’re inspired by “nature fighting back against the genetically modified society that plunders it.” Don’t get too caught up in the message; the colors are really cool.

Patricia Field, who is not known for subtlety in her styling or personal sartorial choices, threw a Disco Valentine's Ball Friday night at Capitale in NYC. To get everyone in the mood for Valentine’s Day, she invited her fabulous friends to come in costume, preferably red. Drag queens, lots of T&A, and a fair amount of Harajuku-esque dressing set the scene--this was not about tasteful fashion. Trojan was one of the sponsors, so you can only imagine what sort of debauchery was encouraged. The costume contest winners--for “Sexiest Couple,” “Sexiest Single,” and “Best Costume” were awarded trophies and a $4,000 shopping spree. Patricia Field hired go-go dancers to entertain and get the crowd in the mood. She also dressed them--we spotted metallic snake skin bras, transparent harem pants, shiny pasties, and thongs--lots of thongs.
