What is Color Street?
First of all, you may be wondering what it is. Color Street started with nail strips made from 100% real nail polish when the company launched June 2017. The nail strips include a base coat, color & top coat all in one. Since then, the company has expanded to include hand/nail care and makeup (clean, vegan & cruelty-free).
Why do I love Color Street nail strips?
- Easy. They’re easy to apply. You don’t need any special tools, heat or whatnot. Because they’re 100% nail polish, they’re also easy to remove. Just use your favorite nail polish remover! I use this remover and cosmetic rounds (cotton pads).
- Quick. Not only are they easy, they’re super quick! I can do both hands in less than 15 minutes. Because they come 95% dry, there’s no drying time or smudging to worry about! You do want to give them about 30 minutes to “set” though. I typically do my nails before bed (which is something I’ve always done, but now I don’t have to worry about the pattern from the fibers in my sheets on my nails when I wake up).
- Appearance. The nail strips last up to 10 days and look great! I’ve had some minimal tip wear but I haven’t experienced chipping. Plus the designs! In the past, I bought tools to do my own nail art but I do not have the talent or patience for that.
- Selection. I love the variety of the selection! I told some friends they’re like a certain game, I gotta catch ’em all! And I really do want them all. Solids, glitters, designs, french! It’s so hard to choose!
- At home. Last but not least, I can do them at home. Myself. I don’t have to take a shower, put on pants and leave the house. I’ve never been a fan of salon manicures. I don’t enjoy people touching me or small talk. I like doing my own nails. It’s relaxing. These just make the experience so much better. I don’t have to worry about spilling nail polish, making mistakes (or my left hand looking better than the right) or waiting for them to dry.
Bonus: Color Street has a foundation to give back. Since the Color Street Foundation started in mid 2018, over $6.8 million has been donated to over 80 charity partners.
