Rescue Beauty Lounge

June 5, 2009

I’ve been a huge fan of Rescue Beauty Lounge Nail Polishes ever since I first saw them in a little beauty boutique in Boston for their range or pretty nude and pink nail polishes. The line was created by Ji Baek who has also opened up two Rescue Beauty Lounge luxury salons in New York.

I ordered a few shades online, two gorgeous reds and two pretty lighter shimmers. It appears the Rescue Beauty website has recently been revamped a bit so the pictures of the nail lacquers make it easier for you to see what they really look like. She has cute descriptions of each shade as well. They each retail for $18.

Left to right: Killa Red, Cherry Love, Ani, Leila

Swatches are here:

Killa Red is described as “This is the cool blue-toned red worn by those dangerous blondes in Hitchcock films (while they reach for the gun in their slim kelly green alligator clutch.)”

Cherry Love is described as “Popsicle-fuschia, the love child of hot pink and sizzling red. When pink is too tame and red is too expected, give this glamorous shade a try.” To me, Cherry Love is just more cool/blue toned than Killa Red.

Ani is described as “A shimmery, semi-transparent golden beige . . . Slightly bohemian, so pile on a stack of jangly bracelets.”

Leila is a soft shimmery pale lavender color (note: the website description has been removed, they are probably still updating the website).

I ordered these shades online and am very happy with the quality and finish. I can’t wait to try out more shades!
