Over the years I've become known for my massive nail polish collection, which consisted solely of Chanel polishes and a lone MAC red (Shirelle). Sure, I had about ten or so variations of Chanel reds, from blue-based reds to warmer orange-reds and everything in-between. Pirate was always a solid choice. Dragon is also a nice red. Sadly, none were
the perfect red. I began to branch out and started procuring YSL polishes...and fell head over heels. I found the formula to be quite different from any other brand, and the highly-pigmented hues are stunning. Rouge Pop Art was my second YSL La Laque purchase, and quickly became my favorite red - ever. It's most certainly a warm red, and is deliciously bright and rich.
Rouge Pop Art manages to be bright yet polished (no pun intended), and pretty much works with whatever style you're currently rocking. It's a great color to wear while traveling, as it looks fabulous dressed up or down. I've received more compliments on this red than most any other polish I own. Men love red. That's a given.
They say redheads shouldn't wear red. Well ladies, I'm over it. My pale Irish skin gives even more pop to Rouge Pop Art, and complements a bright red lip rather nicely. Might I suggest YSL Rouge Volupté N 17 in Red Muse? Just sayin'.
Manicurists overwhelmingly prefer YSL brushes over my thin Chanel ones, not that the brush is a deciding factor if you have a professional at the wheel. Of course it looks equally gorgeous on the toes, making it ideal for peep-toed shoes and summer sandals. I recently purchased my third bottle, and imagine I'll never tire of it.
My verdict? A must-have.
