Girlstuff Forever Launches Bloggers' Elite Summer Collection

Summer is here! I can feel the heat (as in ang init na!) and all I want to do is stay in the shower or join my kids in our (inflatable) pool. But I also know how to beat the summer in another way, paint my nails in summery shades. And I just discovered a new nail polish brand that's not only free from harmful chemicals, has tons of shades available, but also a local brand and very affordable!

Girlstuff Forever is a local brand but it is developed and made in France. Girlstuff Forever's nail polishes are 5-Free! What 5? They are free from five harmful chemicals: toulene, formaldehyde, dibutyl phthalate, formaldehyde resin and camphor. It's safe for kids, pregnant and breastfeeding mommas. It's safe for all!

Last week, I was invited to Girlstuff Forever's Bloggers' Elite Summer Collection Launch. They have collaborated with Manila's favorite lifestyle, fashion, mommy, and beauty bloggers for a special summer collection. Each shade is named after their blog names.

What's you favorite shade? Do you want to know my favorite?

From left to right: Christina Decena of Struttingonsunshine, Jackie Go of Go Jackie Go, Nikki Tiu of AskMeWhats, and Frances Sales of Topaz Horizon.

Christina Decena is a fashion entrepreneur, event organizer, and blogger inspired Girlstuff's sky blue shade. “What struck me the most with this blue shade is its brilliance! I see sunny skies and cerulean seas… This shade speaks to me. It’s like a dreamy cruise in a bottle!”

Jackie Go is a mom of two, a model, and the blogger behind Go Jackie Go. Her favorite color is green and this shade is so her! This shade reminds Jackie of a tropical paradise. "It has captured the calming hue of nature. And this type of shade works well with any skin tone. So it’s a perfect shade to frolic in this summer.”

Nikki Tiu is a HR professional, make-up artist, nail art enthusiasts, and also a mom! And I just found out that she's my neighbor. And she adores the color pink! “Girl Stuff’s bohemian pink is not the usual pink shade that you see in other polish brands. AskMeWhats is an extraordinary , very feminine shade. Kind of like an orchid because of its lilac undertone. What’s more, it reminds me of my Mom whose favorite color is lilac. This perfect blend of pink and lilac reflects a very young, cheerful vibe just like my personality. “

Frances Sales is also a mom, magazine editor and a blogger. “This yellow shade is so bright and happy, you just won’t be able to ignore it! It’s bold and fun!”

The launch was held at Stacy's BGC. Yes I was back at Stacy's! Hehe! There were mini mani stations where we can get our nails painted with our pick from the new collection.

Girlstuff got Manila's top nail art enthusiasts to do the blogger attendees' nails!

I had my nails painted in Go Jackie Go green!

The yummy dessert buffet. Took home cake pops for my kids. Hehe!

And a buffet of Girlstuff nail polishes too! They've got so much variety of shades!

Each bottle of Girlstuff polish is only Php100-Php150 only! I've been wanting to buy their Matte Magic top coat but it's always out of stock!

And to make your nails more fun, Girlstuff also has nail appliqués, just like the ones I had on my nails.
