Impala Nail Color is a Brazilian brand that recently launched in the US! Yay for news brands for us!

Their polishes are 3-free and many of them are also hypoallergenic. They have a pretty wide variety of shades and finishes as well.

There are two things to note with this polish. One is that yes, the bottles are shaped a little different from most in the US. I don’t love the shape but it didn’t have any negative effect in the application. I actually found the pointed tip easy to hold and manage. The one issue I had was the wand tends to get super flooded, so I had to wipe it and the brush off quite a lot before I applied the polish.

Maalouf Nail Polish is a fairly new creation by the four Maalouf brothers. Perhaps you have heard of them?

Joey Maalouf is the hair dresser for Rachel Zoe and is frequently on her show. They are all either hair or makeup artists. They have a full-service salon in Birmingham, Michigan and they sell this new nail collection online.

The nail polish line consists of fourteen shades in various finishes. The bottles aren’t full-sized, I think they are 0.3 oz, but the pricing is pretty nice for the size. The formula was really good for all three that I tested out. Two creamy coats get you all the coverage you need.

The Pure Ice summer 2013 nail collection features a bunch of new nail shades including these five I have for ya this afternoon.

I haven’t had much experience with this brand so it was nice to try them out. Not to mention the price is RIGHT!

The formula was really nice with all of them including the glitters, and they are big-three free. They had a really nice consistency, nice brushes and covered in two coats. Definitely no cheap, gloopy polish here!

OPI Couture de Minnie is a new collection featuring four limited edition shades and a new Liquid Sand polish.

Obviously Couture de Minnie is inspired by the famous Minnie Mouse! It features fun pink and red shades including a pink, red and white glitter that goes with all the other shades.

Honestly pink and red nail polish doesn’t really sound that exciting, but each and every one of these is nice. I am in love with two of them in particular!

The Cult Nails Dance All Night Polish Collection is new and features six shades, three of them cremes and three are glitters.

I kind of love how each of the cremes seems to have a glitter that “matches” or goes with it. Obviously you can mix and match to your heart’s content, but I like the idea of pairing them.

Right now the shades are part of a preview sale going on until May 18th 11:59 pm, EST. During the sale you can get them all for $60.00, and afterwards it will be $72.00. The polishes will be for sale individually after the preview sale for $12.00 each.
