Some great news before I go to bed.

Kimibos says hi to everyone. She's currently doing well, but she hasn't had internet access for a while so Specktra has been off limits. She expects to be back sometime next week.

Hi ladies I love the nail polish pictures and I normally buy OPI and China Glaze but I was wondering do u ladies notice any difference when using chanel or dior. I want to purchase a chanel nail polish but is it really worth the price.

I have a $10 off anything coupon for my bday , I need to find a way to print it lol and get my butt there tommorow! I see its online , so that may end up being my only choice tho. I wish I knew if the other Nordies carries DL. do u kno if Bloomies does? I have one close by..

I think whether or not it's worth the price is relative. I enjoy buying high end polishes, so I will say it is. I will also say that you can easily find less expensive dupes.

I do notice a notice a difference, but it's more so by color. The formula for Chanel or Dior can vary by color, with some being a dream to apply and others being streaky and needing more patience. I'm also a fan of Dior's wider brush. As far as staying power, I've noticed that Chanel and Dior don't chip on me as much as China Glaze. However, others, like Med, have reported Chanel only lasting a day or so on them. I think it depends upon body chemistry and the base/top coat being used.

What color are you considering?

Bloomies does carry Lippmann. They have an option to see if an item is available in store like Sephora.

thank you CC! I checked and it is at the bloomies near me... but I got an email from ulta for $10 off ANYTHING for my bday and I went to the other one on my lunch break and they had two left!! I asked the girl at the counter if they could hold it until tomorrow afternoon so I can come and use my coupon and she agreed since its for my bday ;) um I really hope it's still there tomorrow lol

Since I was at Ulta anyways, I got Essie's Dj play that song and Shake your $$ maker. They also had the CG sunsationals out, so I did some quick research. Compared to the jellies I have already, I can pass on the teal, bright pink, and the blue jellies in this collection, maybe even the purple one! on my list now is : Shell-o, You drive me Coconuts, Son of a Peach and Highlight of my summer. Im going to get them at Sally's tho ( cheaper and I have a 15% off coupon to use). hmm I should also check on those tommorow... Last night I used That's shore bright, beautiful purple almost rubber texture. today I put Sinful colors purple diamond over it omg !! Amaze! I don't ever want to remove it lol

My first Enchanteds are here! I was surprised to see that the polish comes in a box. It's a cute box, but I think I'm going to store these polishes without it. The polishes are very hard to photograph accurately because of the color shifts.






Electric Feel, The Youth, Kids, Future Reflections, Time To Pretend, Congratulations


I also ordered May 2013 and Djinn from her website today. That was complete luck. I didn't know anything about a restock today. I was looking up some info about the Time To Pretend collection and ended up on her Facebook page. There was a mention of a restock. I saw the info only an hour before the launch. I figured why not and managed to score both polishes.

Ohhhhhhh L'Oreal sent me the entire Essie Summer collection and I cannot stop salivating over some of the colors... I've heard theyre quite "jellyish" in the formula though so I'm looking forward to see how they turn out on the actual nails. Wanted to take a pic with my DSLR but ofcourse it had run out of batteries so its IG-pics instead. That green looks gorgeous.
