Deborah Lippmann Mermaid’s Dream and On the Beach

Deborah Lippmann Mermaid’s Dream and On The Beach

Mermaid’s Dream and On the Beach were inspired by the beach. “I wanted to create something that felt like a vacation no matter where you are. The vibrant blue and shimmering green shades evoke a peaceful, relaxing feel that reminds me of being seaside,” Deborah Lippmann said. Mermaid’s Dream is a unique glitter sea-foam foil. Deborah describes On The Beach as “the French Riviera in a bottle.” These shades match perfectly. “You can wear one shade on your nails and the other on your toes,” said Deborah. Available at Rustan’s Makati, Shangri-La Mall, Alabang Town Center, Gateway Mall and Ayala Center Cebu in May.
