Review: Incoco Fashion First fall 2015 Collection

(Press sample)

Hello!

I'm back today with some fun from Incoco's Fashion First fall 2015. The sent me three sets to play with, and play I did! The collection consists of nine designs, five new patterns and four solid colors that coordinate.

Here are the sets I received...First, Incoco Prep School, a fun plaid set with cranberry, mustard, and gray stripes, perfect for fall:

Then there's Incoco Evening Spell, a deep navy blue set made to mix-and-match with the collection or to wear alone:

And finally Incoco Avant Garde, a subtle arrow pattern in black and pewter:

I really like both of the patterns, so instead of mixing and matching with the navy blue, I wanted to wear them by themselves. Look at how adorable Prep School is:

I love that they included strips that just have stripes in addition to the ones with full plaid--I think it gives the design a lighter feel overall, with a bit of variation. And I love these colors together!!


Avant Garde has a special place in my heart--it's chic, it's edgy, it's dark, but not hard. The black and the arrows make my nails look slimmer--kidding, but I really do love these, no joke there. Very urban-post-apocalyptic-chic in the awesomest of ways:

There's something about this pattern that I adore--I'd love to have a skirt or even a jacket like this. And how awesome would these look mixed with red--as an accent nail with a red mani?? Talk about a statement!

And, well, I wouldn't be me if I could leave well-enough alone, so I pulled out my It Girl Nail Art plate IG102 and did a little quick stamping with Barry M Silver Foil:

It was beautifully awesome before, but now...now...now...Bellisima!! LOVE. Custom nail art in less than 10 minutes from start to finish of the manicure, with the help of Incoco. What could be better than that?


UPDATE: I don't often get to test out the longevity of polishes or wraps, because I have to change my polish so often to keep up with content for the blog. But I just had some sort of cold/flu/plague that reworked my life. So I had Avant Garde on for most of that time, and took this picture of tipwear at 10 days:

I call that pretty darn impressive wear for 10 days--these wraps are no joke when you need something that's gonna last.

You can find Incoco's Fashion First collection on sale now on Incoco's website; you can also find select Incoco styles at your local Walgreens.

Happy wrapping,
M.

  2. These are lovely, but Avant Garde is just awesome (with your stamping even more so). And totally still wearable after 10 days. :D
    (though, honestly, I call this a slight cheat :) - I mean, when you're knocked out like that, you probably don't go about your usual daily business so your nails take less of a beating as they normally would -- I should know, I just recently had a polish on for over 2 weeks, intact (as a result of a stupid accident that rendered my left hand useless)).

    1. Good point, lol! Probably not as much wear as normal, but on the other hand, I was typing a lot even though I was sick. But more importantly, are you okay?!?!?!!!!!???

  3. Ooh, well, yeah, that too can be quite hard on nails, I totally agree. (and - yay you! :))
    lol, I'm fine, thanks, other than I'm now "saving" on usage and only polishing 9 nails :D (that is, until the thumb nail grows back).
