Kale and nail polish. Who would have thought they would come together in one bottle? Nails Inc. has jumped on the kale bandwagon and created a line of nail polish that are enriched with kale extract. So now you can get the benefits of nail polish and kale all in one bottle!
Lets look at one of the colored polishes in the line and then we will look at the Illuminator polish that is meant to work as a nail brightener.
"…get the benefits of nail polish and kale all in one bottle!"
no base coat, 2 coats Nails Inc. NailKale in Bruton Mews, no top coat
Ok, first off, look at that shine! This is without top coat. That's right, this is dry to the touch and is more shiny than it would be with a top coat.
no base coat, 2 coats Nails Inc. NailKale in Bruton Mews, no top coat
Now indoors, and in most lighting, this nail polish is a green-leaning black. Like a creme version of Nars Zulu, lighting brings out the green, so the more light, the more green that shows up in the polish.

You can see in the above picture, in direct mid-day sun, this polish is a true forest green creme. And it is still very reflective and shiny. Now on to the Illuminator.
"Now on to the Illuminator."
no base coat, 3 coats Nails Inc. NailKale Illuminator in Bright Street, no top coat
Nails Inc. has a few new products besides colored polishes in the NailKale line. The NailKale Illuminator is one of those polishes. I consider it separate from the colored polishes because: (1) it has an extra word on the front of the bottle denoting it is an "Illuminator," (2) it has it's own tab on the Sephora website separate from the other polish color options and separate from the NailKale base coat, and (3) you're supposed to wear it like a colored polish (so, by itself) but I think it's great for layering as well (see below for what it looks like layered).

This is a gem of a polish just for the blue "glow" alone. Unfortunately sizing down the file size of each photo takes away from some of the awesome shine power, but click on any photo to enlarge it to see the great blue shimmer that streaks through this milky white polish.

In direct sunlight the shimmer is amazing!
no base coat, 1 coat Bright Street over 2 coats Bruton Mews, no top coat
And now to see it layered!
no base coat, 1 coat Bright Street over 2 coats Bruton Mews, no top coat
The blue shimmer in the Illuminator really comes out over a dark polish, and layering it over Bruton Mews really makes the blue shimmer sparkle as the whole nail looks blue.

And there you have it! This is what you get when you mix kale with nail polish.
Both polishes were beautiful. While Bruton Mews isn't a unique color, it is still a beautiful color and is worth purchasing for the glossy shine alone. The Illuminator Bright Street is supposed to be "a nail polish with iridescent pearls that brighten the pink nail bed, leaving the appearance of whiter tips and healthier nails" (according to the Sephora website). It certainly does whiten my nails, as it is a glossy white in color. The blue shimmer adds to the appeal, rather than distract or detract. The only downside to the Illuminator is the slightly slow dry time, but a quick-dry top coat will solve that problem in an instant.
Nails Inc. touts the NailKale polishes as being "formulated with kale extract known for its high levels of vitamins A, C and K which stimulate advanced keratin production. Making the nails stronger, brighter and more nourished. The entire Nailkale range also features Nails inc.’s patented Regenerating Complex (a two-fold Aldehyde, Zinc and Calcium blend) that boosts the production of keratin for harder, stronger and healthier nails" (from the Nails Inc. website).
I did a trial run of the NailKale Illuminator and wore it for three days. It had good staying power (no chips), and I can say that even a week later I don't see any peeling or splits in my nails, but that could also be because I recently filed down my nails, so I can't connect the health of my nails to the use of NailKale specifically.
Personally, I'm interested in trying the NailKale Superfood Base Coat that's supposed to be keratin-enriched and have other healthy stuff in it. While many people say that adding nutrients to nail polish is useless because your nail plate is dead the way hair is considered dead, I find that any little thing can help keep up the health of nails, so if it works for you, why not try it?
A quick note on the redesigned Nails Inc. bottles:
If you examine the bottles in the above photos, you'll notice that in the first picture the bottles have silver lids, and then in the subsequent photographs, I have taken off the silver lids, which left me with the smaller black handle. So now Nails Inc. bottles are like many other companies (Chanel, Nars, etc.) where the bulky outside lid removes to reveal a smaller and easier to manage lid/brush. The brush itself has been redesigned as well. It now fits with the wider, curved-edge brushes that all the companies seem to be favoring.
Overall, the redesign of the bottles really seems to work. Each bottle feels like its made out of thick glass, giving it a heavy, weighted feel. The weighted feel makes it seem higher quality than if the packaging was thin and easily breakable. The curve of the glass also makes it easier to hold, and more comfortable in the palm of the hand.
What's your opinion/position on nail polish and kale? Have you tried NailKale yet?
Thanks for the review. I was wondering about these nail polishes. The illuminator seems great for when you want to give your nails a break.
ReplyDeleteYes! I completely agree! The Illuminator is that perfect polish that you can use for when you're not going for color. I don't know if you've tried Dior Nail Glow (which is my go-to nail polish for when I want to give my nails a break but still want them polished), but for my often-polished nails it doesn't really look as nice and non-yellowed as advertised. This polish, on the other hand, really does make your nails "glow!"
DeleteI tried Bruton Mews today and I really like it. Gorgeous color and it went on really nicely in two coats.
ReplyDeleteThank you for the comment, Kati! Yes, I agree Bruton Mews levels out nicely. In fact, I haven't worn it since I wrote this post…I think I'll use that for my next manicure! Thanks for the reminder!
