5 reasons why I love Color Street (and you should too)

What is Color Street?

First of all, you may be wondering what it is. Color Street is a new brand of nail strips. The company launched June 2017. The nail strips are 100% nail polish and include a base coat, color & top coat all in one.

Why do I love them?

  1. 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).
  2. 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).
  3. 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 (full disclosure – the longest I’ve worn them is about 8 days before I took them off for a new look but it was because I wanted a change, not because they looked bad). 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 all of that.
  4. 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 both when buying and deciding which strips to use.
  5. 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 started a foundation to give back.

So, Color Street nails are pretty much my favorite thing. Are you ready to give them a try? Contact me to request a sample!
