NATIONAL NAIL POLISH DAY | JUNE 1
On June 1st we celebrate National Nail Polish Day in hopes this celebration primes you with every shade under the sun. It’s time to show off your toes and enjoy the summertime!

From the French manicure to elaborate nail art, nail polish has come a long way since the bees’ wax and gum Arabic used by the Chinese around 3,000 B.C. Egyptians in high societies used reddish brown henna to paint their nails. Through the years, nail polish has gone through several transformations. Around the nineteenth century, people began polishing their nails with tinted powders and pastes. They also buffed their fingernails to make them shiny.

Who invented nail polish? Northam Warren invented nail polish in 1911. As a known chemist, Warren first developed a liquid to remove dead cuticles without having to cut or scrape them. By 1916, he his invention led to the creation of a colorless nail polish.

In 1920 a makeup artist by the name of Michelle Menard developed brush-on varnishes that had the same properties as automobile paint. The improvements of Menard’s formula were especially popular with flappers throughout the 1920s who would paint their nails with the varnish. By 1932, Menard began her own cosmetic company, selling nail polish in a variety of colors. The company sold this new and improved type of nail polish at drugstores and department stores throughout the country. Since then, millions of women have painted their nails on a regular basis.

Effervescent bubbles combine with the appealing flavors and aromas ranging from citrus, apple, and pear to toasted fruit, spices, and nuts. Whether paired with a full meal or light appetizers, these wines satisfy the requirement for an unforgettable celebration.

Types of Bubbly
Different areas of the world create their own special brand of bubbly according to strict methods and select grapes. Each differing grape produces a sparkling wine unique to each region.

Cava is produced in the rolling hills of Spain and fills a glass with bright citrus and fruit notes. Protected in Spain, this bubbly must meet stringent requirements to earn the name Cava. Using only the “traditional methods,” Cava requires a second fermentation in each bottle produced.
Champagne is the most common form of bubbly people know. To earn the name, this bubbly wine must be made in the Champagne region of France. In addition, certain kinds of grapes are used with a specific method before bottling. When celebrating with Champagne, enjoy the crisp flavors of apple or a nutty, sweet finish.
