The 2010 Zoya Nail Polish Exchange
To celebrate Earth Day, Zoya has brought back their Nail Polish Exchange program. It’s a way for you to properly dispose of your old nail polish in exchange for some new Zoya 3-Free shades. So if you have bottles of old crusty polish laying around that you just can’t salvage, even with a bottle of thinner, or if you’re looking to update your nail wardrobe, send your polishes to Zoya and let them handle the disposal.
Do you have old bottles of nail polish , used or unused, laying around, collecting dust and tying up your valuable money? If you do, and we know you do, then this is the perfect program for you.
For a limited time, kicking off in April, in time for Earth Day 2010, Zoya will replace your old nail polish (any brand other than Zoya, Qtica or Nocti) with any brand new Zoya Nail Polish shade and properly dispose of your old polish according EPA guidelines. Choose from over 300 ready-to-wear, formaldehyde, toluene, camphor and dibutyl phthalate free, award winning colors (Zoya Nail Polish was awarded the longest wearing nail polish in Women’s Helath magazine)! Yep, an offer that’s as good for the planet as it is for your beauty budget – Wow!
There is a minimum of 6 bottles and no maximum (exchange as many bottles as you want as often as you would like)
All you have to do is complete the form on the Zoya website, choose your colors, ship them your old polish and pay a $3.50/bottle fee for shipping and processing. So you’re paying half price for brand new Zoyas and clearing out your stash in an eco-friendly way. What a deal!
You have from now until June 30, 2010 to take advantage of this offer. What colors are you planning to get?

ALU Update from the Finger Lakes
Hi Fanatics! I’ve been in the Finger Lakes region of New York since Tuesday celebrating my 11th anniversary with the boyfriend. I realized early Wednesday morning that Sprint service is sketchy at best so I wasn’t able to get the rest of my posts scheduled for the week. In the meantime here are some photos from our wine tasting extravaganza that I took on my phone since that seems to be the only bit of technology I can get to connect to the janky cell service. I’ll be home in the a.m. so expect some weekend updates.
Go Green Week – Sinful Mint Apple
It’s Go Green Week on ALU! In celebration of Earth Day on Thursday, April 22nd I’m reviewing some of the great green polishes from this season that I haven’t yet shared. Included with the reviews are tips on how you can “green” your manicure routine.
I never seem to have luck when it comes to finding the LE colors from Sinful. I don’t know if it’s because my local drugstores don’t typically order them or whether they sell out in a flash. Either way, when my friend who lives WAY out east from me said that she spotted a whole mess of new Sinful greens for spring I pretty much figured I’d never see them. So you can imagine my excitement a couple months ago when the clerk at my Walgreens told me they had some green Sinfuls behind the counter that they hadn’t put out yet. Mint Apple was among those gorgeous green gems and in the sea of mint green polishes we’ve been seeing, this cheese stands alone. Check it out! |
