nail news Shellac is hot!
AdvertisingAge has named CND’s Shellac as one ofAmerica’s hottest brands. The power polish appears on the list which also includes iconic brands like SodaStream,My Little Pony and HTC.
Commenting on Shellac, the article said: “At a time when nail polish is being hailed as the new lipstick and sales of the product are growing faster than those of its recession- indicating predecessor,Vista, Calif.-based CND has revolutionized the market with its chip- and dull-proof Shellac Power Polish.”
It also quoted CND co-founder and style director JanArnold: "Shellac has been a rocket for both CND and nail professionals because it has brought more women who didn't find value in paying for basic polish manicures back into the salon.”
Upon its launch inMay 2010, CND sold out a year's global supply in less than a month, and in the U.S. the product has been featured on The Today Show and in The NewYork Times; O, The OprahMagazine, and Ladies' Home Journal, as well as its share of ‘best of’ lists in beauty magazines.
