Beautiful Kimibos. Your manis are just stunning!!!

I got my goodies! My Nordstrom Butter Londons, Sephora Diors and replacement Harem were delivered.

It's too dark to take pictures. I'll have to do it tomorrow. They're all so beautiful. Dior Lilac is a pretty pale purple. I thought it would be like Butter London Molly Coddled, but they're different. Lilac is actually lilac and leans blue. Molly Coddled is lavender and leans pink. They're very different. Butter London Torch is a pretty orange coral with gold shimmer. Love it.

@ Anitacska and kimibos -

Naughtyp, it seems Dior is all over the map in terms of where their NPs land and they frequently enter into exclusivity arrangements with stores/boutiques to solely carry a particular nail polish. It's a real treasure hunt, AKA source of frustration for Dior nail polish enthusiasts.

Another Minnie Mouse collection? guess that's another MINI set for me lmao!!

Thank you CC. Deciding what NP to buy is agonizing isn't it??? I'm better off working from a wish list! Maybe Nordstrom will have the YSLs that you want in time for the 'Double Points' event.

My wishlist is crazy long, so it's still hard to decide sometimes. It would be great if the YSLs appear during the triple points event. I placed two more Nordstrom orders. The first was for the MAC 188 brush (been on my to-buy list forever), YSL Khaki Arty and Rouge Expressionniste, and the mint and salt & pepper Lippmanns with the Girls Just Want to Have Fun GWP. It'll be my first creme Lippmann polish. I only have her glitters until now.

The second order was only for Taboo. I used my first Nordstrom Note to get it for only $7!

I was thinking this was going to be my last big polish purchase until next month, but my last Sephora order renewed my VIB status. I wasn't expecting to get it so early. It was definitely the Illamasquas and Diors that did it. I have another 10% discount to use. I'm tempted to get more Illamasquas, but I think I'll save it. Isn't Sephora doing a 15% VIB discount next month?

Perhaps the better question is what didn't I order?

For the BL GWP I ordered Scoundrel because it appears to be a deeper, pinker mauve than Toff and Bumster because it's in the yellow family and CC endorsed it. For the DL GWP I was at a loss, but checked my perpetual wish list and selected Moon Rendevous and I know What Boys Like, both of which are in the blue family. The rest of my order included a few Chanels & Diors that have been waiting in queue for me to purchase.

More Chanels and Diors? Do tell.

I'm tempted to get another Minnie Mouse polish. The only OPI that I have is one from the last Minnie collection. The one with the hearts.

Honey, kimibos, beautiful manis!!!

Have we seen those swatches already? http://ommorphiabeautybar.com/2013/03/01/essie-resort-2013-collection/
I think I need everything but the coral (already own the dupe).

Which ones did you get?

 

[Anitacska]

I got Peonie, Catherine, Roller Girl, Stripper Pole, Blonde Tornado (same order as in the picture). Peonie has very fine teal shimmer, Catherine has bigger blue shimmer, Roller Girl has multicolour glitter, Stripper Pole has gold glitter and Blonde Tornado is duochrome, and of course they're all holo as well.

Thanks, Buick! You should've seen them before the TC

Buick, the Wheel Master!


Yes it is!

You don't want to change the heat for six months of snow

Looks lovely as ever. Is it really so that some Diors are available only in the US if this is not even in France?


Thanks, CC!


Love the coral and the glitter!

The sprinkle look

Bummer, I just received a broken polish

[Anitacska]

Oh no, that's so sad!

I missed the postman again.

I'll have to go and pick up 2 packages tomorrow, one isn't nail polish, it's the new Chantecaille Save The Sharks palette I picked up on eBay for half the retail price, but the other is either my Llarowe order or my eBay one.

It's Jade on steroids!

Today's incoming----small haul but mighty. Dior's Lilac was my accidental find at Sephora. What's interesting is that it was not listed with their master list of Dior NP and had I not conducted a random search we would have missed this one! I guess it was Beshert (Meant to be ). Harem, this gorgeous color which is sooo Medgal was forced upon me by our dear CC. Thank you CC---it's gorgeous!

....GORGEOUS, Medgal

More Chanels and Diors? Do tell.

Just worked through my wish list of oldies and tried to separate the must haves (LEs vs my color preferences) amongst what in some instances, were NP shades that are tremendously similar to each other. At any rate, my end game is to wear this stuff because I'm starting to feel like a NP hoarder---like I'll end up on that show 'HOARDERS'. I'll be shown with no furnishings or food---just stacks and stacks of nail polish. Smiling now and thinking so what's wrong with that?

 

[Medgal07]

NP Crack-----the colors---oh the colors!!!

So alluring. I want them all.

I did a late night mani with Dior Lilac and Illamasqua Speckle.

I was originally going to pair Speckle with Butter Molly Coddled, but Lilac matches better. I'll be able to post pics later today. I have some things to take care of first. I'll include the comparison pic for you Naughty.

Sorry to hear about your broken polish, Anitacska. It seems to be spreading.

You'll love the 188. I like using it with highly pigmented cream blush to minimize the amount of product I pick up & have more control over the product. What an awesome, champion shopper you are----very strategic! You will also love Taboo & for $7.

It's a real 'CC' kind of NP.

I'll have to look into the the Sephora 15% VIB. I've been so busy racking up the triple point at Nordies

I'm not sure, but I think Sephora has a spring VIB sale for 15% off in April. I hope it's true. I'll save the 10% for later if that's the case.

Isn't it purty!

 

[Medgal07]

Hi Naughtyp----I saw your request for a pic of Dior's Lilac & BL's Molly Coddled for comparison so I had a minute & took a quick one. They look more similar on camera than IRL. MC appears deeper and pinker than Lilac. Hope this helps your decision. Keep in mind, Lilac is exclusive to Sephora and LE---might not be around too long.
