CND Shellac Fall 2012 colors PREVIEW

The photos are now up on this post: http://www.solessence.com/2012/10/the-fall-2012-cnd-shellac-color-swatches-are-here

The new CND Shellac six color lineup for fall 2012 is slowing making the reveal.  They are:

Faux Fur

Midnight Swim

Overtly Onyx

Pretty Poison

Sugared Spice

Vexed Violette

Back in April/May we CND Education Ambassadors were sworn to secrecy of the colors mentioned above during our week long conference in Caralsbad, CA, but didn’t still have any visuals!  Even then, Midnight Swim sounded as fab as it appears here.  What do you think of the new Shellac colors?  Expect them to launch around September in line with Fashion Week as usual.

Ruffian – MAC Cosmetics launch fashion week inspired press-on nails

Anyone that follows this site knows that the simple but exquisite Ruffian nail from Fashion Week 2010 is my favorite nail of all time. Created by CND, it’s a foil moon at the base of the nail, with either black or blue matte. Genius.

Indeed, Ruffian is a line CND has created some of the most arresting looks for on the catwalk, including this monogrammed moon manicure from Fashion Week also during 2010 (s/s 2011)

That’s why I’m both excited and perplexed that Ruffian has released a limited edition collection of these exact nail looks…via MAC?

Demilune

Spectator

Demoiselle

These limited edition nails run $25 a set of 24 and are available only at MAC online or in a MAC store.

I love seeing runway looks jump to real life (another was earlier in the year when Zooey Deschanel attempted the CND Ruffian tuxedo look).

What do you think about this press-on effort?  Will you be getting a set of the nails? If so, which one/s?
