Rescue Beauty Lounge: No More War

For her fall color collection, Rescue Beauty Lounge’s Ji Baek has expressed these sentiments in nail-lacquer form—an olive-green color that resembles military fatigues, to be exact. Aptly called “No More War,” the polish is an unusual, albeit intriguing shade that’s definitely not suited for all beauty junkies intent on taking up the cause. Other shades for fall from Rescue Beauty Lounge are Bruised, Teal and a re-promote of Plie. $18 each

A Coral Polish Like No Other

Don't throw away all your pinks, reds, peaches and pastels yet. I know we're already talking about the nail colors for fall, but we've still got quite a bit of summer left - and how far can we stretch it out? (I haven't taken my summer vacation yet, don't even have it planned, don't close the door on summer yet, please.)

Don't have the right pink, coral, pastel yet? No problem, you're in luck. Rescue Beauty Lounge has the perfect coral shade for all skintones. More Capri than Coral Gables, this is not your Grandma Ester's signature polish. Instead, it's as vibrant and luscious as a mango mojito.
4 oz/12 ml - $18.

Nail Love from Rescue Beauty

We all associate brands with certain images, qualities and the like. For me, when I think of Rescue Beauty Lounge I think of two things - QUALITY + NAILS.
Although there are numerous other types of products found at the stores of Ji Baek, owner and creator, she is known for her meticulous attentiveness to her nail products and nail services. She even jokes about lab technicians having left her firm due to her high level of perfection in wanting to produce the best nail product available over the two years it took to get it right. Interestingly, Ji is also known for her insistence that her spas ("lounges") maintain the epitome of cleanliness and hygiene. A good thing, right? Yes, indeedy!

So if you're not ready to put up your dark, trendy nail colors (think Chanel Blue Satin and OPI Russian Navy), you're in for a treat. This year's fashion Spring shades, although bright and colorful, are nevertheless curiously NOT pastel-y; well, not yet at least. Here is but a sampling of what you'll find at Rescue Beauty Lounge, also available online:
