Deborah Lippmann Roar Collection for Fall ’15 is wild!

The Deborah Lippmann Roar (Limited Edition) Collection: Fierce. Passionate. Empowered. I’ve had the great fortune to be working with the Deborah Lippmann PR group and today I’ll be sharing the Roar Collection for Fall 2015, available now. There are four polishes in the set, (also available individually), three cremes, Respect, She Wolf and Miss Independent, and one glitter, Can’t Be Tamed. I love the range in this collection…from earthy to glitzy, you can’t go wrong with any of them. Let’s take a peek!

These four polishes are described as: “From the discerning She Wolf and the boardroom dominating Miss Independent, to the brick-red that demands Respect and glittery bronze that Can’t Be Tamed, this collection is for the bold woman who has something to say and won’t stop until she’s heard. Embrace your strong and expressive side with these new full coverage shades: She Wolf, Respect, Miss Independent, and Can’t Be Tamed, previewed at the Badgley Mischka A/W 2015 runway show.”

She Wolf isn’t as shy as you might think for a taupe natural polish. She’s glossy and so easy to apply, you’ll think your cheating!

She Wolf is a dreamy creamy 2-coat formula. A gorgeous taupe for fall!

Respect demands all eyes on her. Nothing beats a great red and this one has an edge.

You have to give props to Respect! It's a sexy red, but this 2-coater is highly pigmented and buttery smooth to apply.

Miss Independent is outstanding and stands up to be noticed.

Can’t Be Tamed is a wild one with its gold glitter and sweet honey base.

Can't Be Tamed is gorgeous with it's tiny gold and bits of holo glitters in a honey jelly base. One coat is great as a gradient topper (here over Miss Independent) or only 2 coats for a full coverage mani.

Conclusion: I’ve never been disappointed with any DL polish I’ve used. I highly recommend each one of these. The cremes are a joy to apply, highly pigmented and all 2-coaters. The glitter, Can’t Be Tamed may seem timid upon the first coat, but totally becomes opaque with the 2nd. Love all four of these!

Available now 2015 (SRP: $18 each; $20 for Can’t Be Tamed) online at www.deborahlippmann.com, and at Barney’s New York, Bloomingdale’s, Neiman Marcus, Nordstrom and Sephora stores nationwide.

Hot & Spicy is just that! Hot and spicy.

Hot & Spicy is the same great formula as the Koala Bear-Y. I couldn't ask for better and both are very glossy.

And Teal The Cows Come Home is one of those essential blues, shimmery and never out of season.

Teal the Cows Come Home is a frosty medium turquoise shimmer, here I used 2 coats. Great formula, smooth and not too thin.

Now here are a few fabulous facts for your reading pleasure.

What is your vegan/cruelty free policy?
ILNP absolutely does not test our products on animals nor do we purchase materials from suppliers that do. We make a conscious effort to avoid purchasing animal/insect derived materials like carmine and guanine/pearl, etc. as there are plenty of synthetic alternatives that perform the same or even better.

Are your nail polishes 3-Free?
Yes! All ILNP nail polishes are 3 free! They DO NOT contain Toluene, Formaldehyde, or Dibutyl Phthalate.

What does 3-Free mean?
3-Free means that our nail polishes do not contain Toluene, Formaldehyde, or Dibutyl Phthalate. These 3 ingredients were previously used in most nail polish formulations until recent studies found them to be potentially harmful or irritable to humans. While these chemicals aren’t illegal to use in nail polish (although California law requires special labeling if used), most large brands have already moved to 3-Free formulas at the urge of educated consumers as well as organizations that campaign for safe cosmetics.”
