First Look: Rescue Beauty Lounge Iconic/Ironic Spring 2011 Collection

 

Ji Baek, the elegant and so incredibly talented founder of Rescue Beauty Lounge, just announced on her blog some of the details of her upcoming Spring Collection. Inspired by the various fashions moods prevalent on the runways, from proper ladylike to edgy punk chic, here are the names and descriptions of her upcoming shades in her own words:

“I love that our wardrobes can reflect our multi-faceted personalities. This season truly celebrates woman — so I’ve named my Spring polish collection Iconic/Ironic, hues to juxtaposition against every version of yourself.”

“The ‘irony’ comes from mixing polishes in an unexpected way. Offset all those brights with a neutral cocoa or a grounding black hue. Make your punk looks more tongue-in-chic with lavender nails. It’s about adding that surprising detail that keeps you on your (well-pedicured) toes.”  – Ji Baek

  • Decorous – a perfectly ladylike light cocoa
  • Recherché – a purplish dark brown prune
  • Insouciant – a toned down grey lilac
  • Iconoclast – richly pigmented ebony with layers of fine glitter

Rescue Beauty Lounge nail polishes are some of the most amazing polishes out there, from their iconic square bottle shape, the edgy yet wearable colour range, to the formula itself which is not only free from harmful toxins such as DBP, toluene and formaldehyde, but is animal cruelty-free as well. For those not familiar with the brand, you can check out my reviews (herehere, here and here!) of her last collection which was released in the Fall of 2010.

Ji has graciously sent samples to be reviewed to 3 amazing beauty bloggers, Michelle, Scrangie and Karla where you can see the actual colours swatched and obtain more detailed information.  Rescue Beauty Lounge polishes retail for US $18.00 and are available for purchase on their website.  In the interim, I can’t wait until these shades go on sale so I can pick them up and try them out for myself…and for you too!
