While everyone has been busy fussing over Gucci’

While everyone has been busy fussing over Gucci’s new bronzing powders, I have been obsessed with their summer capsule collection of nail polishes. 💅🏼💅🏼💅🏼💅🏼⁣
⁣
There are five in total, each one dedicated to iconic movies and characters from the Hollywood’s golden era. And they make for really happy nails… ! ⁣
⁣
Anyone who knows me wouldn’t be surprised that I rightaway gravitated to the more offbeat colors – Melinda Green and Dorothy Turquoise. And they are soooooooo PRETTY!!!!!! 💚💙💙💚⁣
⁣
The green is not as lime-neon as it looks in the bottle… it’s more of a leafy shade, I would say. But just that much “extra” to make a person look twice. 💚💚⁣
⁣
And the blue is very Breakfast at Tiffanys, so guess it’s going to get a lot of real estate on my nails this season. (Swipe for swatches). 💙💙⁣
⁣
The bottles themselves are pure love, with a 1950s retro vibe that’s luxe in a very minimalistic fashion. It reminds me of the (now vintage) nail polishes that I would steal from my grandmother’s dresser as a kid. And that makes me feel grown up and nostalgic all at once⁣
⁣
But what actually surprised me was the formula itself. Colors are relatively easier to mix up but Gucci has really gone all out on the formulation. Like all ‘polishes that I test, these were applied without any base or top coat and they glided over so smoothly that I don’t think you need any of that stuff at all! Which is a first for me. 💪🏻⁣
⁣
Today is the fourth day of wear and there’s not a single chip even after all the hand washing and sanitisers (swipe to see). Plus, the brush head is wide and squat, which makes it easy to apply the color – a boon, since it’s going to be a while before nail salons become a part of our regular existence again. 😳⁣
⁣
Also, they took about two minutes to air dry – again, without any top coat to help them along!⁣
⁣
I am seriously really very impressed.⁣
⁣
Have you tried anything from @guccibeauty yet? And what’s YOUR nail polish vibe? Bright? Or more understated?⁣

Just. Listen. ⁣
⁣
When was the last time you took a break, drew a deep breath and just let yourself listen to the world around you?⁣
⁣
I love this quote by Drew Sirtors because it makes me pause. And listen to the wind. To nature. To the world outside my being. To the voices inside my own head. ⁣

I must have worn a lipstick about 4 times in the past 3 months (hello masks!) and yet keep collecting them like crazy. And maybe it’s just not me? The simple lipstick is a curious phenomenon. From being seen as a sign of Satan worship and being the province of prostitutes to becoming markers of wealth and an indictor of the economy (#lipstickindex), they are more than “just” makeup. 💄💄💄💄⁣
⁣
And where, in historic times, they were used in secret chambers and with great subterfuge, today it’s THE thing to whip out a gorgeous lipstick case in public to freshen up your look. Lipstick cases, in fact, are the latest ‘It-accessories’ of our times with everyone from Hermès to Gucci competing for the most sculptural, almost museum worthy, effects. 💋👄⁣
⁣
The best ones, where I am concerned, are those that combine form and function. And out of the 642652986298 that I currently possess, these are the top four that both look stunning and work brilliantly!⁣
⁣

Dolce & Gabbana Dolcissimo Liquid Lipstick: With a floral print that’s inspired by the designers’ couture gowns, isn’t this pure luxury?⁣

Chantecaille Lip Veil in Mandevilla: Sales of this limited-edition lip color support Elephant Family, an NGO in India) 🐘🐘⁣
⁣
Gucci Rouge à Lèvres Satin Lipstick in Moira Sienna: That Art Deco-inspired etched gold case!⁣
⁣
Rouge Hermès in Violet Insense: This is a limited edition, hence the red and blue bands… the permanent ones come with black and gold bands. Plus, the cases are refillable so I am making it my life’s mission to collect them all!⁣
