Cupid's Pulse Article: Beauty Tricks: Prosecco-Flavored Nail PolishCupid's Pulse Article: Beauty Tricks: Prosecco-Flavored Nail Polish

By Delaney Gilbride

The latest (and most interesting) beauty trend extends to demographics across the world bringing brunch-lovers and nail biters together in celebration of the first edible nail polish – Prosecco Polish. According to Shape.com, this tasty trend comes to us from the creative geniuses behind Groupon. The discounted site debuted the alcohol-infused nail polish to their United Kingdom followers only a couple weeks ago just in time for Mother’s Day in the UK.

Not only does this polish taste and smell like our favorite bubbly white wine, its golden metallic finish looks just like prosecco!

“To help celebrate Mother’s Day [in May], we’ve created the world’s first edible prosecco-flavored nail polish, ‘Prosecco Polish’,” the creators of Groupon shared on their website. “Combining our love for manicures and prosecco, this nail varnish is made with real prosecco and smells and tastes just like the real thing. With a delicate gold luster, this lick-able polish looks exquisite, giving you the fun of the flavor without a sore head the next day.”

Although the nail polish is claimed to be edible, we’re going to give our readers a quick beauty tip: DO NOT go around drinking it like real prosecco! Its sparkly finish may look yummy, but don’t let it distract you from the DO NOT DRINK warning plastered right on the bottle. Just because Groupon says the nail polish has “zero calories” doesn’t mean you should overlook all the other ingredients put into the polish, including propylene glycol, sodium saccharin, potassium aluminium silicate, and more. However, if you want to suck on your fingers all day to receive that sweet taste of prosecco, go for it!

Unfortunately, those of us in the United States won’t be able to experience prosecco-infused nail polish on our date nights any time soon. Prosecco Polish wont arrive in the U.S. until sometime this May which, subsequently, appears to be right around Mother’s Day. As of right now, over 10,000 GrouponUK users have already entered their sweepstakes to win a free bottle of Prosecco Polish. It has us wondering, will this new beauty trend be a hit in the United States? Guess we’ll find out in May!
