I haven't seen this before but one of the HE brands (I think it was Lancôme) had a polish set like this a few years back. There were two glittery polishes in jars and a rubbery tool like that but only with one 'arm'. I bought the set because I got it 70% off, but it was just horrendous. The result was just clumps. I still have it, but I'm not at home atm so I can't check it out.
China Glaze had an awesome collection of holos called DV8 years ago. And UO = Urban Outfitters has some awesome holos atm!
Hah! It felt already slightly wrong when I typed it, but I read until the wee hours and I disclaim responsibility for everything I write and say today! I'm still not fully awake, I think.
One of each ain't too bad!
I hear ya.. the texture would drive me INSANE. I like the way they look with a topcoat though.China Glaze had an awesome collection of holos called DV8 years ago. And UO = Urban Outfitters has some awesome holos atm!
Medgal, awesome haul!
I was SOOOOOOOO good and didn't get anything at Cult's sale. It was hard. Very hard.
Here's a mani I did with OPI's black liquid sand. The texture of them drives me bonkers, nails feeling like sandpaper - not good. But I quite like the look, but for this I used topcoat and used the plain liquid sand as an accent nail.
Zoya Pippa- im soo into yellows now. im going to get 2 from sally hansen lol you can tell im on a low budget .
the essies on the top are sticker on the cap free, and the ones on the bottom have it. which are the ones i got from the drugstores. i think i got like 5 from the top at tjmaxx at like $3.99 so cartoonchic check you tjmaxx maybe you can score some. 
@Annierii love your sand mani. i think im gonna have to get one now.
@honeyonboost that ysl polish looks amazing on you, i luv it!!!
@ cartoon chic Girls i dont know how i missed it , your chanel collection looks amazing!!!
Sigh. I haven't got DV8 either. I have FYI, LOL, IDK and 2NITE from that collection. DV8 was already being sold for more than retail by the time I joined the party but the prices were nowhere near as insane. I stupidly decided not to get it because a lot of reviews mentioned big time chipping (which is, in my experience, indeed the case with OMGs)I only have 2 polishes from OMG and neither of them are DV8. I was thinking - what are the best older holos one should (try to) get? The best ones are of couse insanely expensive or not available.
I think the official release is in March only.
Never in a million years would I have thought that a yellow creme would look so gorgeous!
OMG you guessed them all!!!!!!!!!! lol im soo predictable, you can tell from that lineup the colors im drawn to. i have boxer shorts in my list to get too.Never in a million years would I have thought that a yellow creme would look so gorgeous!
I'm still staying away from yellow cremes though. Tried once, never again. Let's just say it wasn't pretty...
Look at those Essies all lined up! I particularly like the 5th and 6th in the 1st row and the middle one in the 2nd row. Let me guess... The 6th in the 1st row is Smooth Sailing and the middle one in the 2nd row is Coat Azure. Not sure about the 5th in the 1st row - I'm tempted to say Lapis of Luxury but I wouldn't bet my life savings on it.
Actually, I can bet my life savings on it because I don't have any!
Thanks Buick! I'll try them out!I'm with you re: Scrangie. I love her nail shape and I find her swatches to be among the more colour accurate out there. I also like how she doesn't wax lyrical about stuff and lets the pics do the talking. Hers was probably the first nail blog I came across - she's the reason why I'm in this mess!
Vampy Varnish is another favourite of mine. There seems to be a problem with the site right now though.
Others I can think of off the top of my head are Kellie Gonzo, Polish or Perish, the Swatchacholic, Nails and Noms and Fashion Polish.
Yeah, I got that last night. I asked them to send it again. From what I understand my order wasn't destroyed (unless they like to destroy things at BOW PDO) so that should be feasible. Fingers crossed! Did you ask for a refund or replacement?
Beautyzone2007 usually has the new ChG collections, but sometimes it takes a few weeks after swatches start popping up for them to be available. Prices vary depending on collection but I don't remember her selling any ChG polish for more than $4. I bought a lot from her and never had any problems.
Have you seen Color Club's new holos btw? Those are listed already. Linky: http://goldenankh.blogspot.nl/2012/10/color-club-halo-hues-swatches.html

I actually like the Kaleidoscope collection a bit better because there's less chipping. I have Octa Gone Wild, Let's Do It In 3D, Visit Me In Prism, How About A Tumble, Kaleidoscope Him Out and He's Going In Circles. The first three are my favourites.
If we're talking non-ChG vintage holos, my vote goes to OPI DS Glamour. Seriously, I'd sacrifice half my collection for that baby. I love it so much. DS Original is also lovely, but it's easier to dupe. ChG IDK is kinda close, but more linear. There's probably similar stuff out there.
