Jewelry designer Laura Lobdell couldn’t find the perfect summer polish to complement her range, so she created her own. Her signature color, Laura Lobdell 183 is the most natural nail polish gets. It’s free of toluene, formaldehyde, dibutyl phthalate (DBP), and camphor—and we adore the steely blue gray color. Her customers will recognize it as the same shade as her West Village shop.

She’s throwing a party to launch the polish with free mini-manicures, this Thursday at Butterfly Studio Salon, 149 Fifth Avenue, between 21st and 22nd Streets. Time: 6:00-8:30 pm. Please RSVP to [email protected]
