Rescue Beauty Lounge GOMM Collection

Before I show the swatches, I want to share a little of my thoughts about Rescue Beauty Lounge. Please scroll straight to the photos if you don’t care to read so much.

Not long after I got to know about Rescue Beauty Lounge, they launched the Fall 2011 LʼOiseau de Feu, or Firebird, collection. This was a collection with colours inspired by the weather changes due to a hurricane. Accompanying it was a description of each shade that read like a beautiful poem. To add on, there was a piece of “accompanying music”, which provided the names and “soundtrack” to the collection.

I was awestruck by the creativity that went beyond the colours of the nail polish. Before this, I was just a nail polish enthusiast, eager to try out a newly discovered brand. After the release of the Firebird collection, which excited not just my love for colours, but also my love for the written word and music, I became a die-hard fan of RBL and its creator, Ji Baek. To me, this is a brand that is very much about creativity and art, and about sharing Ji’s love for all things beautiful with the world through her nail polish.
