Did you know that NARS and Phillip Lim have collaborated for 14 seasons at NYFW? Since 2007! That’s a relationship, especially by today’s standards. The 3.1 Phillip Lim for NARS Nail Collection includes nine limited edition nail shades inspired by the “colors that exist in the shadows.” Of the 9 shades being released I have two to share with you today in Insidious and Crossroads. Warning, I go all movie buff on you in the descriptions.
Insidious. Brutal honesty, I initially needed this for the name. Ever since I saw that movie (which I didn’t feel was scary, but I did like it) I have loved saying the name. Insidious. I want everything to be Insidious (not really, that would be bad). Anyway. Insidious the nail polish is a beautiful blackened mossy green with golden shimmer. One coat, you guys! (PS this shade will be Exclusive to NARS boutiques and narscosmetics.com).
Crossroads. This also reminds me of a movie…. of the Britney Spears variety (Google it if you don’t know.. this was before her crazy and also before Taryn Manning was all blessed be holy roller in OITNB AND you might also recognize Zoe Saldana before she was a heavy Hollywood hitter). But we just won’t go there. Crossroads the nail polish is a saturated, blackened indigo cream. It’s pretty beyond what pretty means. Also one coat!

My mind immediately went to the movie when I saw insidious! I found that movie to not be scary, but still pretty entertaining! I would always crack up at the scene where the daemon jumps out and looks like Darth Maul

Where he’s on the ceiling? hahahaha I was watching with my 17 year old cousin (male!) and he was literally shrinking into a corner of the couch. I still make fun of him for that one. Big muscle man hahahahahahaha
Insidious is flipping gorgeous! That’s a perfectly vampy color that warms the cockles of my heart. 😛

I agree, Insidious didn’t scare me at all! I’m a horror movie-fanatic, take note. But seriously, that Insidious nail lacquer is gorgeous! I might get it!!!!

Wow, I love them both and both look great on you! People think I’m crazy but I think you need to be just as aware of your skintone with nail polishes as with makeup.

Definitely! Some shades really wash me out!
I am dying over Insidious. I hate ordering from Nars but I’ll do it for this.

That green reminds me of a China Glaze Halloween polish from a few years back. Both are gorgeous, though.
