Bring It Back 2012 Rescue Beauty Lounge - Part 2

Earlier this year Rescue Beauty Lounge had their "Bring It Back" event and brought some polishes back from retirement. I showed you half of them in this post, and now here are the rest!

Here is my most anticipated BIB polish, Insouciant. This is a moody dark dusty lavender with a soft glaze of iridescent aqua and violet shimmer. I used two coats here. Lovely and sophisticated but still a little rock n' roll. One of my favorite RBLs ever.

This guy is called Opaque Nude, an uber nude. The base is tinted pink rather than beige and unlike other pink nudes, is actually quite flattering on my skin tone. Amazingly opaque, only took me two coats and leveled out nicely. A winner for sure!

Recycle is the last color that RBL brought back this year. A true classic shade, and one of the first I fell in love with from the line. A deep and lush forest green crème. Incredibly pigmented and so deep. I love that this is noticeably green, not black looking as some dark crèmes can be. Two perfect coats.

You can get these and other Rescue Beauty Lounge polishes on their website http://www.rescuebeauty.com/ for $20 each. They have some awesome things planned for this coming year, I can tell you that! Keep up with the owner, the inimitable Ji Baek, on her blog and her tumblr for all the latest scoop. Cheers to a great 2013!

Bring It Back 2012 - Rescue Beauty Lounge

It's that time again! Rescue Beauty Lounge Bring It Back! Read all about the event here: http://blog.rescuebeauty.com/happy-holiday-in-may/. The tentative date for their sale is 11/2, but that may change due to the huge storm that's hitting the east coast right now. Here are the ones coming back that I have :)

Aqua Lily is pretty much unbelievably beautiful. The most recent retiree to be welcomed back into the RBL catalog of available lacquers. She's from the inaugural fan collection that debuted at the beginning of this year. Hot turquoise with killer pink shimmer. Like the glistening lagoon water of a fantasy island lagoon.

This is Starfish Patrick. Truly an essential polish in my collection. This is from the Spongebob collection that came out in 2008. I don't know how many times it's been brought back to life but I'm just as in love with it now as I was when I first saw it. Deliciously smooth light creamsicle orange milky jelly. Le sigh.

And the other BiB polish I have in my possession is Pui Mosso. This guy is from the Firebird collection, the first collection I had the privilege of reviewing for RBL. Luxe mysterious dark navy with a tinge of purple and a generous glaze of reddish copper shimmer.

The entire line up that will be available for purchase: Recycle, Opaque Nude, Starfish Patrick, Insouciant, Pui Mosso, and Aqua Lily! I hope to bring you the swatches for the others soon. Until the sale date, again set tentatively for Nov. 2, I would urge you to sign up for Rescue Beauty Lounge email newsletters in order to be alerted as soon as possible when they are back. Any of those in particular you are looking forward to picking up? Personally I can't WAIT until I see Insouciant in person. I'm kind of obsessed with it!
