I actually try to arrange them by collection, but sometimes I buy pieces from a collection in later hauls and by that time I've already made other swatches. Boo. I used to swatch polishes by colour but that became untenable as my collection got out of control
lol.gif



One day there will be a NP that looks less than stellar on you. Until then my response to your manis will be this:

Now that you mention it, yes, I think they do!

I have the OPI Bond dupe of FeiFei. I wore it twice since I got it. I wore it alone the first time round but it took god knows how many layers to look opaque. The lazy bastard that I am, I layered it over OPI Roadhouse Blues the second time I wore it. In retrospect a slightly lighter and more vibrant base would have been better.

Not cheap darling, savvy

They're going to start treating you like a crazed stalker!

Oh I do that too Anitacska! I hate my husband peering over my shoulder at such a sacred time---unveiling my makeup and nail polish!

Never made it to the sorting office today, so now I have to wait until Monday to pick my paackages up. Never mind, my hubby's home today but won't be on Monday, so I'll have some peace to have a proper look. Still waiting for one more package (only 2 nail polishes in that one), hope that'll arrive on Monday too.

That's quite a dilemma there for you Corally

Not really, when my nails are long I have to wear np everyday otherwise they will break. But when they're short and I paint them it always looks like I dipped my nails in a bucket of paint and it chips almost immediately. So only nail hardener for me.

Here are pics of my recent hauls.




ROW 1: Cream Tea, Teddy Girl, Fruit Machine
ROW 2: Cuppa, Jasper, Cheeky Chops
ROW 3: Trout Pout, Torch, Royal Navy

I don't have the Starkers set yet. They weren't in stock when I ordered to get the $9 price match. They're in stock now and have shipped. I'm glad because I should get charged for them during the triple points period.





398 Lilac, 887 Purple Mix, 707 Gris Montaigne





ROW 1: It's a Trap-eze, Hanging in the Balance, Seduce Me, Mediterranean Charm
ROW 2: Mimosa's Before Mani's, Tart-y for the Party, Custom Kicks, Happy Go Lucky, Pool Party





ROW 1: Freckle, Muse, DWS
ROW 2: Serenity, Nurture, Prosperity

The Rubber Brights are in the bottom row and have a rubber finish. I like how they have rubber tops. They're much more vibrant in person. Prosperity is actually a magenta purple, like the color of MAC Heroine.

CC---you've earned your NP racing stripes. You're a super shopper!

PSA: Ulta is having a buy2/get1 free sale on China Glaze polishes. Using the $3.50 coupon makes it even cheaper. I bought 2 polishes yesterday and didn't know about the sale. I went back up there today to get my free polish and bought 6 more. So including Custom Kicks and It's a Trap-eze from yesterday, I have:


  • Custom Kicks
  • It's a Trap-eze

  • Tart-y for the Party
  • Mimosa's Before Mani's
  • Hanging in the Balance
  • Happy Go Lucky
  • Pool Party
  • Mediterranean Charm
  • Seduce Me


I also made my way to that other Sephora that's further away. It was a gold mine I tells ya! They had a few Freckles in stock, so I got one. Now I have the entire Illamasqua speckle family. But that's not all. They had a handful of Muse and DWS polishes, and colors from the Rubber Brights collection. I grabbed them on the spot. The store was packed so I was trying to control my giddiness and not appear to be a crazed NPA. My haul:


  • Freckle
  • DWS
  • Muse
  • Serenity
  • Nurture
  • Prosperity

They didn't have Devotee. I didn't remember to look for Aorta or Optimist, but I think they have them. I may be making another trip tomorrow. I was lucky with Nurture, Prosperity and Serenity because there was only 1 left of each one. I used my VIB coupon to get 10% off. That helped because I was only planning to get Freckle if they had it. There was no way I was going to turn my back on the other colors.

My previous manis.

Essie Going Incognito. A beautiful money green color. I only wore it for a day even though I wanted to wear it longer. It chipped after washing my hair. I removed it and wore the Dior Golden Jungle Duo. There was something on my lens when I took these pics.








Dior Golden Jungle Duo. I loved this mani and wore it for a week. I applied the #148 gold color on all of my nails, then applied a thin layer of the #608 khaki crocodile crackle to my pinky and index to accent.

Lovely manis, Kimibos! PYL looks better on MVFK than MSH.


I received yesterday the Korean polish I ordered a while ago: Etude House Mintchoco Chip:


And with the bottle:


Metallic glitters on a milky base. I think this is one of those 'yoghurt' polishes every Korean brand seems to put out now. It was a bit of a stinker but otherwise great to work with.

That polish is too cute! It does make me think of mint chocolate chip ice cream.

Soooooooo cute! I couldn't decide for the longest time whether to get those or the Misshas, and in the end I decided to skip. Did you get some of the other colours?


Today both nails on my pointer fingers decided to break.
ohboy.gif

With all the breakage around here, it's apparently no good week for fingernails all around.

Although I like the length you had in the pic of the lilac mani very much, CC!

Tomorrow a discount site over here has Butter London's 50% off. I decided to get up early tomorrow, lol!
