For a girl growing up in the 1970s there was nothing more special then being allowed to occasionally have your fingernails painted with mum or gran's own nail polish.In Nora's mind at least there was nothing more glamorous than a Cutex nail polish bottle. No small and stumpy brush handle here - just look at the long handle with its waist nipped in by the gold band.
Perfect for controlling the polish.
Sadly it looks like Cutex is now out of the colour game, instead now concentrating on the all important nail polish removal and general nail care.
BTW, gotta love the names of these colours - Aurora Lights, Blushing, Silver Frost, Wicked White, Nearly Pink, Amethyst, Virgin Pink and Snow White - it can't be easy to differentiate between so many similar hues.
