Beauty Review: Wet n Wild Fast Dry Spring 2011 Nail Polish


Shortly after I posted product images of the Wet n Wild Fast Dry Spring 2011 collection, Wet n Wild sent me three complimentary bottles of the polish to put to the test. I didn't get to pick the colors, so I'll say upfront that these are not colors I will be wearing everyday, but they are definitely fun additions to my collection.

See swatches and more deets after the jump!

Get Elie Tahari's Dashing Diva Nail Look from New York Fashion Week




Celebrity nail technician Pattie Yankee and the Dashing Diva nail team worked backstage to create nail looks for models at the Elie Tahari Fall 2011 show presented at New York Fashion Week. Pattie used Dashing Diva's Trust Fund with a Make-It Matt top coat for a nude look requested by the designer. This was not a show that I was able to attend myself but I just love a great neutral polish that goes beyond soft pink and this one strikes me as a bit tan or camel in color. How cool would this look for spring?
