Teen Vogue's Dec/Jan magazine addresses an issue everyone cares about: polish that lasts. Without all the gimmicks, and even without UV lights, these favorite polishes will hold up for at least seven days. The color picks are Revlon ColorStay Longwear Enamel in Indigo Night, CND Vinylux Weekly Polish in Azure Wish, and Sally Hansen Triple Shine Nail Color in Pool Party.
The Dec/Jan issue of Teen Vogue offers a new holiday season mani: heavy-metal. Metallic manicures can be the perfect way to add sparkle to your look. Teen Vogue suggests you can make the glitter polish jewellike by dabbing the brush on just the tip or the base of the nail. Or you can layer glitter polish with a matte topcoat, leaving a 3-D effect that sparkles. Careful not to go overboard, though, because with too much, you can risk looking childish.
In the November 2013 issue, Lucky boasts what it calls the best pedicure shade ever in the world. Not only does Guerlain Le Vernis in Madame Batifole burst with shine and last for up to three weeks, but it's the perfect red/pink/purple combination.
Lucky's November 2013 issue offers a fresh new manicure: a polish combo. The bottom layer is Essie Nail Color in Power Clutch and on top of that is Deborah Lippmann's Nail Polish in Stronger. On top of that deep gray, the glitter really pops.
