China Glaze’s fall 2012 nail lacquer collection, On Safari, was used at the Fall 2012 Mercedes Benz New York Fashion Week as models showcased their perfectly polished manicures alongside the garments of top designers. The shades were hand-selected by the designers and their beauty teams to be featured on the runway.
