The Queen’s Been Wearing The Same Nail Polish Since 1989 And It Can Be Yours For Just €9.99
Now we can all treat ourselves to a royal mani.
Queen Elizabeth II will be 92-years-old in June, so at this stage of her life she knows exactly what she likes in the beauty department.
When it comes to picking a nail polish, only one will do, and it’s a brand that’s cheap as chips and available in most pharmacies across Ireland.
So if you fancy treating your hands to a royal mani, pick up Essie’s Nail Lacquer in the shade ‘Ballet Slippers’.
The shade can be described as a classic, pale pink polish with a subtle, sheer finish – so it’ll suit any occasion at any time of year.
Apparently the Queen has been wearing the same polish since 1989, and according to OK! Magazine, her hairdresser sent Essie a letter requesting Ballet Slippers, because it was “the only colour Her Majesty would wear.”
If it ain’t broke, don’t fix it.
Have your say
