I need to clear my head and close these tabs in Firefox!  Hopefully you'll find a link or two that interests you!

From Lipglossiping: Le Metier de Beaute nail polish that looks a lot like Laura Mercier eyeliner and H&M's Envy Me.  I.  NEED.  THIS!!

Some of these Dashing Diva polishes look awful, as does the application!  Yikes!  Doesn't make me want try DD polish, though I admit that I'm still a little curious about them.

Some links with les Khakis de Chanel: Polish or Perish and the beauty look book, which also has a ton of links itself.  I want to want Khaki Vert, because hey, it's green and Chanel... but I don't.  I feel like I need to take my temperature.

Chanel's Soho polishes: Temptalia and the beauty look book.  So underwhelming.

Tom Ford is going to be releasing nail polish.  Probably gonna be expensive, judging by the price of his lipstick, but also luxe.

Have we gone back in time?!  Sephora is carrying nail products with formaldehyde.  You read that right- formaldehyde, not formaldehyde resin.  The latter is what you can sometimes find in Big Three Free formulations.  If you're curious about formaldehyde, read the Product Q&A for the Pink Gel Coat.  There's a question named "Three Free It's Not" with a very intelligent answer by Bostonkiddy.  I won't be buying anything from Perfect Formula because of the formaldehyde and the absolutely astronomical prices.   And this also makes me think of dibutyl pthalate, which is an ingredient in non-Big Three Free polish. This article really gives me pause, since I was diagnosed with endocrine and insulin issues this year.  But I haven't painted my nails that much!  Or have I..?

I have to admit that I like the promo color of CND's Urban Oasis more than the actual color.  What I really want are these CND colors, but I don't want to have to wait until next year!

Any cool blogs you gals are reading that I should add to my reader or blogroll?  Any new, neat and nifty nail news you've come across?  Please feel free to share!

Lippmann's Lady Sings the Blues and Across the Universe debuted during the Nordstrom Anniversary sale, and I'm sure you've seen them on every other blog by now.  What can I say- I got distracted by other colors.  A magpie is me! Wall of text and four pictures of dubious quality...
