If you haven't yet, be sure to check out the huge selection of Ultra Minis in the shop. At $3.75 each, they're a great way to sample a bunch of ILNP nail polishes!

Last but not least, we're using a brand new base from a different supplier. The strong solvent odor is all gone! The new base is much more pleasant on the nose and I'm beyond happy about it. I waited for over 2 months for this to arrive!


That's all for now! Thanks for reading!! :P

ILNP Spring Collection 2013

Hey Everyooonnne! Today I will be sharing with you my new Spring Collection along with 4 other new polishes!

I really enjoyed creating the Spring Collection. I wanted it to be different than the typical "Spring" colors (which I still really do love). So I grabbed inspiration from fashion, nature and really anything that felt and reminded me of Spring and came up with these fabulous polishes :)

So without further adieu, I present to you ILNP's Spring Collection 2013

"Don't Trample My Roses"

"Old Gregg"

"Golden Orchid"

"What The Funk"

"Bohemian Peacock"

"Glass Slippers"

~ And here are the additional four I created ~

"She Surfs"

"Pinky Ring"

"Emerald Dew Drops"

 

"Sugar Blossom"

Ta da! *Sparks flying* What do you guys think?! 

Thanks! Love ya!

Finally! The new ILNP shop is LIVE!

Finally! 

The brand spanking new ILNP shop is online now at http://www.ilnp.com. Please head over and take a look, I'd really like some feedback if you have the time. Click around, let me know what you think :)

So much work was put into this site, I don't even know where to begin. There are all new product photos for every ILNP polish (including macros) and I'm still finishing up 3 color nail swatches for each of the polishes. Once that's out of the way I can finally move on to more fun things!

I have about 10 new polishes to release including a spring collection... I'm excited! :)

As far as my Etsy shop (http://ilovenp.etsy.com), I have no plans to close it as I love the Etsy community and everything they've done for me by supporting me and my brand. I'll likely keep both shops open for as long as I can... it can't be that hard :)

We're going to be advertising the new shop more which is pretty exciting, so if you have a nail blog or vlog that gets a lot of unique visitors everyday -- send an email to me barbra -at- ilnp.com!

Stay tuned for more exciting news :P

Bye!! ♥

NOTD: Pastel Half Moon Mani & New Camera!

Hey you guys!! How have you all been?! Me, well I have been busy like crazy! As some of you may know, I recently released my Valentine's Day collection and now I am working on my Spring collection!
While I was coming up with some concoctions, I got inspired to do a pastel mani!

This was my first time doing a half moon mani, but I like it :) I used OPI Pink Friday, China Glaze Re-Fresh Mint ( though I think I got a bad bottle because it doesn't look like my other bottle of Re-Fresh Mint) and finally Essie Nice is Nice.

Also!! I got a new camera! A Nikon D600 with a 60mm lens :) I posted a picture on Instagram last night because I was so excited! hehe. So look forward to better pictures and new polishes!!

Thanks everyone!! ♥ ya ;)

Peekaboo! Ultra Minis coming along...

Here's another sneak peek at the progress of the new ILNP Ultra Minis!

Excuse the funky photography! I was in a rush and didn't pay much attention to the lighting.

Still working a few things out and waiting for some stuff to be delivered (wrappers, more bottles, etc.) but we're definitely making progress!!

As you can see, even the Ultra Mini bottles have the same rubberized caps that you're used to. You can't see them here but I'm also using the same style of wide brushes that I use in full-sized bottles.

I know a few were wondering if the 3ml size is actually enough polish for their manis. Let me just say that I'm 100% positive you'll be able to get at least a few manis out of it. I've tested over and over -- even with very dense glitter bombs and multiple coats.

I've made sure to call these Ultra Minis because they're smaller than standard minis (which are usually about 5ml).

They're the perfect size to get familiar with, and fall in love with select ILNP polishes before splurging on a full-sized bottle.

Hope you're loving 'em so far!! :)

A sneak peek at something new...

Hi everyone!

I wanted to share a sneak peek of something with you I've been working hard on getting just right...

ILNP Ultra Mini polishes!!

If everything goes as planned, the Ultra Mini's should be available within the next 2 to 3 weeks! I'm still waiting for a few things to get here.

Each Ultra Mini will contain 3ml of fantabulous ILNP nail polish -- enough for a few (or more) manis depending on how generous you are with your applications.

The bottles will sport a wide brush, rubberized cap, and same overall quality that you're all used to.

I'm super excited to release these to the public. You guys have no idea! I haven't figured out the exact pricing yet, but they'll be in $3.00 range; perfect for those curious about an ILNP polish but not ready to commit to a full-sized bottle.

I'll be sure to share more details and photos once they're ready to go :)

Please tell me what you think!
