Could be flukes in the batch? Maybe leave a comment on Nails Inc facebook page - I've seen people leave comments on there and normally they'll replace them for you.
wow that sucks! at £11 you'd think it would be one of the best!!While we're on polishes, I bought the new Westend glitter crackle polish from Nails Inc and it doesn't crackle at all! Bloody rubbish. I also got the City (purple one) and that was a bit rubbish at crackling too, but this takes the prize for the worst crackle polish ever. £11 a bottle as well, not cheap at all! Grr!
You can also get the China Glaze polishes from Sally Beauty Supply stores in the UK - they're only about £4-5. There are a few of them around the place and they're worth checking out if there's one near you - they have so many goodies!

Ahh thanks for that. Yes I tried out the polish duo on 1-2 nails last night and it worked really well, it's a very nice product and I'd happily buy more from her range. I hadn't realised it was a new range (there are still some brands I'm unfamiliar with here, not being a local and all) so thanks for the info.

Sigh. Right when I am completely out of makeup budget, of course NARS sends out an email to say their Pleasures of Paris palette (which has been out of stock for nearly a year now!!) is back in stock. I will have to hope it stays in stock for a few more weeks, I've wanted it for aaaages and it's such a lovely palette for autumn. (I'm also going to Paris in autumn, can that be another reason for needing it?

with MAC
They took my order online, last Tuesday for Groundcover eyeshadow from Fashion flower, they took the money from my account and I got my dispatch email last Thursday, but there was no Yodel tracking number?
It still hasn't arrived, so I just rung MAC, apparently they sent me the wrong email, I should have got an out of stock email and a refund but didn't.
Because I thought it was on its way I didn't go to the counter at the weekend, i just rung them and they are sold out too.
I am so dissapointed, I don't think I am going to order online from MAC again.

Thats so horrible of MAC! Maybe you can ring other counters and see if they mail order? Hope you can get a hold of Groundcover - if still so surprised at how fast it sold out :/

Contacted Nails Inc re the glitter crackle polishes and was told I can choose one each of the original crackle polishes as replacement, they'll be sent free of charge and I don't have to return the glitter ones. That's alright I guess. I was complimented on my nails today twice though, once by my 10-year-old daughter and once by another Mum at school, they look pretty cool, if you don't know they were supposed to crackle.

Just a note, I dont think the 3/5 drawer units are available here in the UK, I seem to remember only seeing them on the US website.

I bought all 3 of these also - Blue Iguana (Blue), Senorita Bonita (Purple) & 108 Degrees (Pink)
I've worn them all and love them - as Lou said though be SURE to use a base. I don't think I actually own any other blues.. maybe I do.. but this one stained my nails like craaazy. Totally worth it though.
Happy note - I won the Beauty UK crackle polishes on Friday and got them today. Really wasn't expecting them to arrive so soon. I LOVE the silver crackle. It's so damn pretty I put it on today. I did a shitty job applying polish today but that's because my Barry M black polish was super frigging goopy. I need to buy a nail polish thinner, or just another black polish. Refuse to put polish remover in there as it can ruin it.
Also - I'm trying to quit smoking. I've probably had about 3 in the past 48hrs. This is major considering I usually smoke 20 in a day. The withdrawal isn't too bad, however I'm exhausted. So, so tired I feel like I could sleep for a week. I know it's due to not smoking as much as usual and it's so exhausting I almost want to smoke more just so I can feel more awake, but I'm resisting. I'm quite bitchy, too, which is horrible. I hate being so moody but there's nothing I can do about it. I really want to save money by quitting, or at least cutting down dramatically. I'll feel less guilty about buying make-up etc if I do. Bahhh, I'll do it. I know I will. It's just frustrating.

Thanks for the link. I've just found out that they have a store both in Guildford and Kingston. Weird.
Must check out the Beauty UK crackle polishes next time I'm in Superdrug. What other colours are there?
Good luck with quitting smoking! I quit about 9 years ago and haven't even wanted to have one since. I just went cold turkey for 3 weeks, then I didn't even want it. But I didn't smoke 20 a day, more like 5 or 6, so it must be very hard for you. Good luck!
