Another colourful morning for you — and more of Revlon’s limited-edition Nail Art duos, this time from a series called Moon Candy. Sure, I could have shown you these yesterday, but Staff thought a post with 30 photos might be a tad long. On rare occasions, she makes an unexpectedly good point.
Revlon Nail Art Moon Candy features a cream colour on one side of the duo and an iridescent-flakes sheer-colour coat on the other. Here’s a fun Moon Candy mani by Revlon Nail Expert Leeanne Colley. (Reminds me of this 3-D mani Tips did for Pink Tartan at their F/W2011 Fashion Week show.)
Looks like coloured iridescent ribbon some folks crumple up in the bottom of gift baskets, doesn’t it? I’m thinking that if you like glitter polish, Moon Candy might be your new crack.
Revlon calls the glimmery coat a “Rock Candy finish.” And according to Leeanne, it’s a holographic look totally in line with what celebs like Katy Perry, Alexa Chung and Beyoncé are up to.
The eight-shade collection will include hues called Universe, Galactic, Milky Way, Satellite, Supernova, Cosmic, Orbit and Moon Dust; the labels you see in the photos aren’t final.
Nope, I don’t yet know which tint will be which shade. Mystery!
This pretty mani by Tips technician MyLan belongs to Vanessa Taylor, Clothing Editor at The Kit, stylist extraordinaire, and one of two behind TheStyleSocial. We think maybe this mani is a combination of duos because none of the duos below has a base shade like this peachy colour. No matter; it’s Revlon. *grin*
Revlon Nail Art Moon Candy ($8.95 each) hits drugstores and mass retailers in August. Tempted? Can you hold out until then?
UPDATE: The pink and green Moon Candy in the image above won’t be available until 2013. Below is the 2012 collection (click to enlarge).

Gah! So much good stuff from Revlon! How’s a girl s’posed to choose?
Hm. I’m not sure I’m sold on the chunkiness of the paper bits. It looks very similar to OPI I Lily Love You (most underrated glitter top coat ever, if you ask me. Which you didn’t) except bigger chunks of the wrapping paper bits.

I don’t make promises I can’t keep. So here goes….I promise you will LOVE the Moon Candy. I couldn’t stop playing with it. Way better than the one you mentioned :))
Hah ha! I think we got her when I added the photo of Vanessa’s mani and tweeted her about it — much more Lindsay’s speed!
I need to see it in person, but from the looks of the main picture (black and blue nail chips) I may have to pick one up!
I’m a sucker for stuff like this lol xD
Wow this looks very cool will definitely try this!
I am very interested in this new collection! It’s something to look forward to! :)
Flakies! I am obsessed with flakies right now. The only thing that I don’t like so far is that the actual flakes themselves all look the same and only the base colour differs. I know there are different tints but I’m assuming that’s the base colour. I could be wrong though! I’ll check them out in August.
Hi Joanne!
My bad — I just photographed the shiny parts (#magpie). *grin*
I’ve slipped a quick snap of the press image into the post, at the end, so you have a better idea of the collection’s colour combinations until you get a chance to check them out. :-)
Oh good! I was worried these would be like Essie SOtT, but they’re more like ChG Lux & Lush! Now I can probably skip them.
