Kiko wheels! Many of the colours in the first wheel look really similar here but they're actually pretty different IRL.



And today's mani:

Pinkie to thumb: 387 - 343 - 296 - 391 -297

Three cheers for Anneri!

Two cats here, and I agree, can't even say how much I love them.


Man that's a good sale. Wish we had sales like that here. I still haven't tried Zoya, but they look so good.


Pretty, pretty and prettier!
Lol! That's one of the reasons why I'm slowing down. I want to play with my stash.

Blue & green heaven! They all look so awesome! Deal of the year you've got there! And you need to keep those skittles coming to work them all through!

I don't think we have that many people that buy a lot of HE stuff, or even makeup or NP in general, so things are always 'left over'. Also, since we are living not so good times economically, more stuff is discounted, and it's done earlier than before. The sales are just about to begin here, so I made an early bird NPA attack the first thing this morning and gave a better home for these babies (all 40% off

EL Insatiable, Chanel Black Pearl (lovely green cast) and Fracas (

), Dior Underground and New World Purple


So cute!


They are lovely! I don't remember seeing that Girl set anywhere here.
Great choices! Love that EL and Fracas is one of my favorite chanels.

I never even knew about the girls collection until a few days ago. It completely flew under my radar.

Hopefully you can welcome a new yorkie baby soon. I only had cats when I was little, but always wanted a dog. One day I will get one too.

Naynadine, that video that you shared made me reach out to the breeder today. I try to check in with her from time-time so she doesn't forget my request, but I don't want to be a major PIA about it. She responded immediately, said she hasn't forgotten me and she's actually awaiting two litters. That news, the video and Buick's nail wheels made my day! I'd like a small female, which is what I had. She was so sweet, had the best personality ever, and wasn't a yippy-yappy dog like the little ones tend to be sometimes. I am beyond excited. My daughter just got her third cat---she owns her own home so she's free to rescue cats. We've just told her not to get anymore, in fairness to the animals, because her schedule is insane!

Lovely choices.


I will! I've been forgetting to apply it and I'm seeing the difference.

I keep it on my nightstand and apply it when I get in bed. You have to keep your nails and cuticles in good shape to accommodate all of that NP that
you'll be wearing!

I do, but I also put oil or lotion on them afterwards let it sit for a little then wash them off and sometimes wipe them quickly with remove+ if it's really oily.

Not really a good deal since they are about $8 each.


I caved and bought Keks. I can't wait to get it. It's so pretty isn't it?


I'm so tempted to get the chanel's too but I think they'll be everywhere so I can save my money for just a little while longer. They tend to stick around, and only one of the 3 is LE

Of course it doesn't count!

Sounds like this is the prevailing sentiment!

lol it's always summer here in Miami. I actually hate summer because it rains so much. Fall/Winter are my favorite. I'd prefer a warm/hot rain to a cold one any day!

I'm not crazy about sets...they're like eyeshadow palettes, in that there's usually one shade that you're not that fond of.

LOVE that China GLaze Bottoms Up! But I am not one to match anymore, although I once did all the time. I get more variety out of toes and tips when I don't match and it's not as boring when I don't!

I pick a shade I like best for my toes, then I change my manis with similiar colors every two days until I decide I want a new color lol. right now I have CG Bottomss up on both. one of my finger nails chipped already (!!!!) so tonight I will change my mani to orlys choreographed chaos and maybe put a coat of it over what's already on my toes since it has shimmer. it helps me go try my Untrieds quicker!

I think that may be part of my problem then. I apply moisturizer after I've finished my mani. I can see how that wouldn't help my nail beds because they're already covered in polish. I did a mani tonight and moisturized before polishing. I always wipe my nails with Remove+ before polishing to make sure their clean. When I did it this time, they didn't seem so dry. I think that minor switch of moisturizing before polish will make a big difference over time.

My new mani is Illamasqua Stance and Dollish Polish Purple Nurple. A perfect match. The purple color is so vibrant. I'll take a pic tomorrow. I also tried the Poshe top coat. I love it. Then again, I seem to love all top coats when they're new. Still, I noticed the Poshe top coat didn't "move" my polish the way the Butter London top coat sometimes does. It also seems to dry pretty fast on its own without the aid of the OPI Drying Drops, and it's very glossy. I'll do a coordinating pedi tomorrow.

Already started tonight. I kept my Abricot Creme next to the bed too, but I think it fell over one night and I kept forgetting to pick it up. It's now in its rightful place. I also ordered some nail supplies from Sally's. More cotton pads, cuticle sticks, etc. I need my nails in tip top shape!

EDIT: I forgot to add that I ordered a new crystal nail file from Sally's. The Daniel Ruby Stone Crystal Nail File. Perfect timing, too. I set my Dior crystal nail file next to me when I was doing my nails. I wasn't paying attention, leaned on it and it broke. The handle shattered. I'm not upset. The grainy coating for filing was wearing away. Hence why I ordered a new file in the first place. Med, how is your file holding up?
