Nail Polish Discussion - Any Brand

[Anitacska]

Ooh what powder is this?

Aaaahhhh, that is a good strategy....shopping at different stores and leave one left at each location

At least now you have reason to go back and get another powder along with cuticle softener

Ooh what powder is this?

It's called Sternenflug from the brand alverde, the collection is called Feenzauber.

Aah, I wish I would've found one with almost only lavender and beige, like this one: http://kosmetikaddicted.blogspot.de/2013/04/tragebilder-alverde-feenzauber-le.html
All the ones I've seen were mainly brown.

As far as I know it is a LE from Alverde

I didn' t get it and therefore I cannot post pics and swatches...sorry!



edit: Naynadine was faster! Thank you!

+ the palettes. Not looking very pigmented?

I saw them last week at Sephora but they haven't received the entire collection yet so I'll be waiting a bit ( the quints are to die for ! ), both are very pretty and Dior mini bottles well it's cute. Not so pricey 27 € here so it's affordable and it's also perfect for a gift. Bird of Paradise is a gorgeous collection, I want everything I mean in theory but I'll pick up one duo, maybe two I still don't know as Nars just launched both the summer and Pierre Hardy collection on the French website.

My latest lemming is totally Chanel Taboo.. I need it in my life. Anyone that has it and will insist on me getting it?

Christine from Temptalia wrote a review about " Taboo ", I think it's a must-have. Looks absolutely gorgeous both in the bottle and on her nails. I couldn't find it here but if I had, I would have purchased it !

Now I'm lemming it, great!

Nooo, I think I have enough now.

I want Taboo too! Apparently we're only getting it in June though.

Coming on here really quickly to say I just ordered the Dior Bird of Paradise mini duos from Saks.com. Didn't know they were minis until I saw they cost $29. A full size bottle is $24, so there's no way the duos are full size at $29. I wish they were full size. I had a $25 gift card that expires at the end of April, so I used it. Practically got one of the duos for free. And there's a free terry cloth headband GWP for any $50 beauty purchase. My Dior and Chanel hauls from last week also arrived today. I hope I have the time to play with them later today, but probable not. Still...

I love the 4th polish station rack, the Enchanted polish haul and the China Glaze Neons! I'm getting every last one of them. The bulk of my China Glaze collection are neons.

Welcome to the thread and absolutely yes! I insist. Taboo is gorgeous. honey on boost has a pic of her Taboo mani in this thread. It says it all.

I knew it I knew it------Didn't I say CC would know about these polishes before my SA. Now what do I do?? They're sitting in my cart on SAKS.COM----do I pull the trigger and buy them online, or do I wait and give her the sale. So I just called the store which is closing in 10 minutes. My SA was unpacking the collection, she put mine aside and we'll complete the transaction tomorrow morning. If I had purchased them online shipping would have been $10.

Glad you got your Dior and Chanel hauls from last week. Looking forward to seeing your swatches. Thanks for the compliments on my 4th NP rack. I'm starting to worry about where I'll put the next one should that become an issue.

Liba---they certainly are vibrant and beautiful! I have to tell you that I'm wearing CG's Dandy Lyin' Around today. I had to use three coats but I didn't mind that at all. It looked so pretty and classy with my outfit. I love it---Thank you for introducing me to it!!

I live in an old house with thick brick walls, I think even the closet is surrounded by them! The door is solid wood, about 2 inches thick, so I think it would be fine. The racks are for 60 polishes (the only ones I can get). I can put 6 of them on the door (just checked the measures). But this is still an idea because the racks would cost about 300 USD, and all these Mac (and NP) launches suck me dry and I need some makeup drawers first!

OMG!!! I'm so going to get them ALL!!!

And talking about jellies, here's my first jelly sandwich: Nails Inc Chelsea Flower Show and OPI Pink Yet Lavender. (more yellow orange irl)

Those swatches are beautiful MRV.

Thanks for sharing the link!

Also - a short hello from me from South Beach! I'm really enjoying our vacation, it's been wonderful so far. I'm looking forward to showing you my hauls when I get back on Sunday!

Here's my Sephora VIB damage.

YSL

• Bleu Majorelle

Dior

• Riviera
• Lucky

Illamasqua

• Lament
• Purity
• Jan
• Caress

Believe it or not, I feel like I showed some restraint with this order. I had a lot more in my cart. I removed a bunch of it since this was only a semi planned order. I didn't get the Dior nail kit. The sale isn't over yet, though.

Now I think I'm done. I've YOLO'ed enough for the day. I'm going to take it easy for the rest of the month. Unless there's a Nordstrom or Butter London sale. I still want to pick up more China Glaze from Sally's while their sale is going on. But all bet's are off if the new Dior, Chanels and Lippmanns release this month.

You did GREAT CC

I only nabbed one item from the Sephora sale & that was the Dior Manicure Essentials Kit--$9.36 off plus free shipping was sweet. I had to exercise restraint (it took a lot) because I got all of the blushes and skinfinishes from IED, all of the HW collection except Lightscapade, which I already have, and from BB I got two lipsticks, a paintpot and one of the lustre drops. I also got three of the lippies, and lip pencils from Fashion Sets. Tomorrow I'll finalize my order for the new Diors. I too wish they were full size, which I prefer in any brand, but the colors are too pretty to pass up. After tomorrow I think I will have YOLO'd enough for this month!

Hi Girls im ok. i had a flare scare this past week. so i stayed home today, my dad did go but at 12:00pm and he was back home at 2:00. i cant tell you how bad i feel right now. its so awful to be scare about going around the place where you live. and i also the poor athletes, some have lost their arms and legs. No one should justify this tragedy with Religion or Politics! its just unfair.

 

[Medgal07]

Aren't the names just totally cute too!!!

I think I'll pass on the CG neons. I got loads from last year's collection and I love those, and don't particularly need any more neons. I'm trying to limit my purchases to "unusual" polishes, like holos, duochromes, glitter, etc. We'll see how it goes.

Speaking of which, my latest order has just arrived. I got 5 Enchanted Polish polishes. Left to right: J'Adore, Britney SpearMint, Flamingo Freckles, Wish Me Luck, Freeze Machine



And this is the polish I'm wearing now, Girly Bits Hot Shot, an almost neon pink with subtle holo.

Oh and by the way, I haven't bought any polish for 10 days!
