Pretty Please Nail Polish: Holiday Edition
Sara Alter, the Founder and Chief Polish Officer of Pretty Please Nail Polish, knows all about how to make things feel personal. She created a company that lets you personalize your own nail polish, after all!
With the holidays around the corner, we asked Sara to share her top 3 tips to help you personalize your gifts, events, and outfits for the perfect personalized holiday season.
- You found the perfect gift (personalized nail polish?), but to make the gift complete, you’re not done yet! When wrapping gifts, think about the recipient and make them feel like you personalized the gift from start to finish. Gifting to a cook? Rip out a page from a magazine with a great recipe and use it as wrapping paper. Gifting to a beauty lover? Print out a nail art DIY and fold it up to use as a gift tag with your recipients name on the other side. Lucky girl!
- When throwing a holiday party, you’re often bringing groups of people together that don’t know each other well. Make it feel more personal with a fun name tag station. Set up a table with name tags, festive stickers, and markers and let everyone create their own. You can even have everyone use a nickname. It’s bound to get funny, especially after some egg nog, and it will be much easier for your friends to refer to the guy with the Rudolph sticker.
- “Is the guy with the dark hair single”?
- “Who”?
- “Rudolph name tag”
- “Oh, Greg! Why, yes. He is”!
- When primping for a holiday party, your hair and makeup will obviously look flawless so get creative and make your nails a talking point. With drink in hand, show off a two tone manicure, sparkle tips, or festive nail art. It’s a great way to add some personalization (and conversation) to any outfit.
Cheers!
Sara Alter launched Pretty Please Nail Polish in 2011 to help make beauty personal. Her customize-able nail polish company allows one to create and name their own lacquer. After studying fashion design at The University of Delaware, Sara decided she needed to leave behind the thread and needles for less prickly pastures. Thus, Pretty Please was born… (with only 6 color swatches to choose from). Now she operates her company out of her own office in New York City and has grown to 25 color options and endless name options for each bottle of personalized nail polish.
