Renting Nail polishes

 I’m not sure how I feel about this exactly, because part of me is excited but another part of me is thinking germs.. germs..germs,
There is a new company called Lacquerous.com which works like Rent the Runway BUT with Nail polishes, now although I love the idea of paying $18 a month and getting 3 luxury nail polishes for the month, I guess is like going to the nail salon & getting your nails done,( I’m the girl who brings her own nail polishes to the salon.) and there is no water for the bacteria to live in when it comes to nail polishes, so its partly ok to share nail polishes, plus lets be honest, its not like we finish nail polishes right away, so in a sense you will be saving money.


Here is a break down of how it works:
1.Request to join Lacquers (yes there is a waiting list)
2. once you join create a “Lust List” (they add new shades; & have brands like Chanel, Dolce & Gabana, NARS, Butter London, Tom Ford, OPI, Dior, MAC ect)
3. Pay $18 a month and receive 3 designer shades (Lacquers asks each polish three times per rental period, they monitor the amount of polish in each bottle to make sure people are following this rule)
4. ship them back after your 30 days (it comes with prepaid postage) & in a few days you will receive 3 new nail polishes.

  1. Not sure what I make of that! It's kinda cool but... I also love looking at my collection. But gotta admit, I've never really finished a bottle of coloured polish...! (I say coloured because lots of top coats and base coats)

  2. I have the same issue, i love looking at all the different colors but I've only ever finished one bottle of nail polish (a pink one). I'm giving it a try to see how it works.
