Perfectly Polished

Perfectly Polished

I have to confess I have a bit of an obsession with Revlon nail polish.  Sometimes it’s the one small cheap but oh so luxurious accessory a girl can have.  Perfectly polished glistening fingernails. Oh bliss…

I’m definitely not into promoting large corporations especially in the beauty industry where ethics are never quite pure.

As a child I would watch my mother religiously paint her nails no matter what the occasion.  I can’t count how many times she painted her nails on the steering wheel of our van at a red light.  Never understanding her obsession I deemed it unnecessary, time consuming, and just an odd chore.  Just recently have I slowly nurtured my own love for perfectly polished nails. 

A bit of history…

In 1937 Revlon developed a unique manufacturing process using pigments instead of dyes to develop a variety of new shades for opaque nail enamel.   The company then began selling their products within department and drug stores and in six years became a multimillion-dollar organization.
