Editor’s Pick: Best Silver Nail Polish! Morgan Taylor in Chain Reaction
For a little over a year I hunted in the wild aka the beauty supply store and searched for the perfect metallic nail lacquer. I had seen a chrome steel look on Tumblr and I just had to recreate it, only problem is most silvery nail polishes fall way short of the dream. I’ve bought products in the past only to begin painting with a color that was either too thin in formula thus needing excessive layering or once applied noticing it is nothing more than a clear polish with specks of glitter.
Therefore, was I now doomed to walk the earth without ever locating a nail product worthy of giving me a strong metallic design? I almost thought that until I came across a tint from the Morgan Taylor collection. I took one look at Chain Reaction and my eyes popped out like I was a Disney Goofy character. I did my best to control my excitement just so I could give Morgan Taylor’s shade a closer examination. Of course, before purchasing I reviewed the swatches and by the look of things the polish seemed as though it would dry with a nice subtle yet luminous finish.
So then, I thought why not, I’ve given so many other products a shot. Boy was I shocked over not just the finished look but the small amount of formula needed to achieve it. Two thin coats per nail was all that was necessary and as with most glittery nail polishes Chain Reaction dried quickly! Here is a video of a few more reasons why Morgan Taylor Chain Reaction is a winner.
Beauty Drama: I’m Out of Nail Polish Remover!
It happens to the best of us, you go to change out a nail color or rid yourself of the chipped polish look then BAM! Where is the nail polish remover?! Am I really out of this stuff? Yes, you are, but there is no need to fret.
To remove nail color without a bottle of trusty nail polish remover formula, all you will need is a bottle of top coat and cotton ball(s). Apply a layer of top coat then immediately remove it with the cotton ball. Voila, beauty drama is solved!
