Backstage at , I got chatting to Myrdith Leon-McCormack, co-founder of hip New York-based nail brand M2M DamoreJon. Myrdith is currently in the UK working alongside nail artist Sophy Robson on all her shows and shoots, in anticipation of M2M DamoreJon’s arrival in the UK next year.

ELLE first heard about M2M when they provided the nail polish for our Charlize Theron cover shoot in August 2008, but it’s only now that we’ve managed to get our hands on the stuff.

The high pigment content and unusual colours make the polishes particularly good. Case in point: Star Burst, a dense gold glitter that gives nails that molten feel, and Sugar Plum, a quirky pink/purple shot through with blue, both pictured here.

While the polishes are slated to land here in 2010, an exact date has yet to be confirmed – we’ll keep you posted.
