Barielle Wildflower

Mornin', ladies. 🙂 I've been upwardly since four (WHEE!) and wasn't able to fall back to sleep, so instead of dreaming virtually Ryan Reynolds I spent the wee hours this morning listening to Debbie Gibson (LOL!) and painting my nails.

I used Barielle's new Wildflower collection for spring ($viii each).

Barielle says their inspiration for the six new shades came from two things: 1) spring flowers and 2) the many women close to the brand who are nevertheless battling confronting, or have lost their fight with, ovarian cancer.

Three of the colors — A Bouquet for Ava, June Bug and Myrza'south Meadow — are really named after three of these special ladies, and 100% of the proceeds from sales of the shades through ocrf.org will be donated to the Ovarian Cancer Research Fund (what an awesome idea). 🙂

Of course, like Barielle'south other polishes, the six Wildflower shades are free of formaldehyde, toluene and dibutyl-phthalate — potentially harmful compounds normally found in lesser-known, off-marketplace nail shine brands.
