Victoria’s Secret Party and nail polish – Woodfield Mall – Schaumburg, IL
Despite the terrible weather, the party was popping last night at Victoria’s Secret in Woodfield Mall. VS held a nationwide event and I had the chance to be on hand providing polish changes using the just released nail polishes:
There were 18 colors available ( rumor has it there are 24 total) plus a new pump bottle of Polish Remover and a combination base/top coat. The colors were rich, and the formulation very creamy. The top choice of the night was the color “Classified”, a pink with rose or raspberry undertone. It somewhat matched the darker shade on the tablecloth.
The Sign-up sheet was filled in minutes! This was the first time VS has had a manicurist on-site, and it was a hit.
Next in line was a dark red called “LushWorthy” that had a gorgeous foil look to it. It was a classic red, with a twist.
Shhhh..she was in 6th grade and had come in with full nail polish art she had applied. Had to add hearts on the new Victoria’ s Secret polish on her fingers.
“Bitten” is the lightest color, and is what is used on all VS models for their shoots. One coat gave a clean look, and three gave a nice, opaque white/pink.
With raffles, mini waters, chocolates, discounts and double points, it was a fun night for everyone. Thanks for stopping by. If you pick up a bottle of the new Victoria’s Secret nail polish, let me know what color you selected!

Asphalt Color Swatch
A few of you are asking about Asphalt color swatch. I don’t think my search is that defined on the site, but here is a sample. It looks the same in Shellac, which is the bottom photo (matte out). What are you planning on doing with your color?
