COLOR STREET: Tinseltown Nail Strips Review

Pin It // Jan. 2021 edit: This has been a popular post of mine from month to month since I posted it in 2019. For some reason, me and my ding dong brain was not aware at the time that Color Street is a MLM (multi-level marketing company/network marketing company). I do not support MLM companies and their practices for multiple reasons. While I understand why people (mainly women) sign up to consult... as someone who has been preyed upon by consultants and has interacted with MLMs WAY too much being in the military family community for 10+ years... watching them exploit and destroy women -  MLM companies are just something I can personally support.

If you find these nail strips interesting or worth trying please note: Color Street is owned by a brand named Incoco, which has been around for quite awhile. I reviewed Incoco strips back in 2013: here. From personal experience with Incoco and Color Street labeled brands - THEY ARE identical products, from the strip quality all the way down to the packaging and application instructions. If you for whatever reason are compelled to try these strips and are willing to support the parent company... you can find them at Ulta or Walmart (Walmart sells both Incoco and the brand Coconut Nail Art, which is also by Incoco). Incoco does not sell directly from their website anymore. If you are interested in more trendy/unique nail art type nail strips, I highly recommend SCRATCH nail wraps.

I redacted the consultant's information from my post a few months after posting, but I chose to leave this review up as it is speaking directly about the product itself and it's performance. This is not up for discussion, don't @ me, comments have been turned off.

"Empowered women empower women — and that means supporting our friends but not supporting organizations or companies that exploit them."

Thank you

Color Street Tinseltown Nail Strips

I’ve toyed around with the idea post posting or not posting this review for months. I fault myself as prior to accepting the sample, I didn’t do research and had no idea who Color Street was LOL. I know all too well that multilevel/network marketing companies can be a touchy subject. At the end of the day, my blog is here to review products and give my honest thoughts on quality and how those products perform with use.
