So you know a girl has got to keep her nails did right (hence the purpose of me starting my blog)! Speaking from this podium is a woman who owns probably over 3,000 (last time I peeked) bottles of lacquer, I can tell you that variety is definitely the spice of my life. I always find myself getting caught up in conversations between me, myself and I which consists of "don't I have this color already", but hey who says having a back up (or a few) is against the law!!
Below what I've done is let my fingers do the walking about the WWW to put together a list of nail polish brands that are owned by women of color. You do know that nail polish does not discriminate right, lol!!
For you I've given you the links to their shops and the price ahead of time so check your account balances and go stupid!!
