Nail Polish Discussion - Any Brand

[Corally]

I actually removed the T recommends sticker from my Noble. I like her swatches, but she's got too big for her boots. It's amazing how some people hang onto her every word. I agree her followers will be all over anything with a T sticker though. Stick one on a loo roll and watch it fly off the shelves!  Talk about unlikely interwebs heroes 

:lol:  [COLOR=0000FF]This was the first time I've ever noticed the sticker.  For the most part, I take her reviews w/a grain of salt because I don't think she maximizes use of the products---like eye shadow.  She does the same placement every time, which doesn't always show the products potential and worth. Then she gives the product a poor rating. You can take that same product, put it in the hands of [/COLOR][COLOR=0000FF]someone with a few application skills and the difference is like night & day.  Not trashing....just saying!!! [/COLOR]

She always says she doesn't do a neat application because she's just testing: application, longevity etc. hboy:

So there I was, googling Kiko swatches like a good NPA, when I came across this:

Holy green shimmer batman!

GORGEOUS....WAIT...allow me to get dramatic along with you!

I've never cared much for Twatter. Now I bloody hate it!!!

Me either Buick...I don't FB or Tweet/Twat

Oh, I saw those Sugar Mats! They look lovely, especially the pearl ones

. I wonder how they compare to Zoya's Pixie Dusts.

I'm rubbish at nail art so I'll have to give the mirrors a miss.

I think the Pixie Dust are better in quality because Zoya is such a great brand. But Sugar Mat polishes are pretty.

Unbelievable...I ordered Illamasquas on Wednesday and they arrived today

Both Rain Drops boxes had a round 'Temptalia' sticker on them w/Editor's Choice Award.



Left to right: Superstition, Pink Rain Drops, Rain Drops

Great haul, all 3 are beautiful !

The NPAs dance is back !

 

[Medgal07]

Oh Anneri, don't listen to her. Be a devil and wear this as your wedding mani:

Go on, you know you want to. Think of all the stories you can tell your grandchildren

Buick you have me in stitches!!!

I still say Pink Rain Drops!!!

I saw the Illamasqua sale, went on the site and closed it three seconds later. I didn't want to get my wallet in trouble, as it's already sitting in the corner exhausted begging me to stop buying more makeup.

Thanks Dominique! May I join you???

I'm with you Naynadine. My wallet hid itself from me

so I'm moving on to the husband's wallet

Oh noooo. You just reminded me that I need more Zoyas...especially PD.

Oh, they are pretty alright!

Do you have any of their cremes? How do you like the formula?

 

[Naynadine]

I'm with you Naynadine. My wallet hid itself from me

so I'm moving on to the husband's wallet

Well, maybe I should find me a husband then.

You're going it the wrong way round. You should have started with hubby's wallet

Yup. Couldn't agree more. I don't pay much attention to her looks, but I like her individual swatches for comparison purposes. Even though we don't have the same skintone I can have a fair idea of what the colour looks like by comparing it to other swatches she's done with products that I have.

I also like her individual swatches, they're not always accurate but at least I can compare them with stuff I already have.

She always says she doesn't do a neat application because she's just testing: application, longevity etc. hboy:

Yeah, and pigs can fly 

Oink oink.

That's how most sensible beings use that site.


Yeah, and pigs can fly

Perhaps they do in Cali


We should have a swooning smiley.

doesn't always cut it.


Sigh. Maybe we should reconsider. All the brushes I could have bought at half price keep going through my head and drive me nuts!

NEVER. Specktra takes enough of my time. I wouldn't have a life if I started FBing & Twating

Oh, they are pretty alright!

Do you have any of their cremes? How do you like the formula? Yes I do have some Zoya creme polishes but they languish among my multitude of untrieds

I have Lara, great formula so easy to apply and very long wearing. I also have a fleck one both are very good. I love the formula and the colour too !

Multi quote disappeared

As long as you find one who supports your makeup and NP obsessions

@BuickMACkane You're going it the wrong way round. You should have started with hubby's wallet

You're right

Silly me...I was just using it for overflow!!

 

[Dominique33]

Yes, such a good idea but... no husband in the area

!

I'm doing a polish change now and I've selected Zoya Blu---a pretty pastel creme.

They say blue is calming---trying to tame the savage shopping beast within!
