Love them all, but this one is especially gorgeous!

A few from me:



Essie Hip-Anema with LOreal Confetti accent (in pics it looks like it does in the bottle, orange-red, IRL it looked like a straight up red on me)



Chanel Bel Azure



Revlon Cherries in the Snow

[COLOR=0000FF]    Awesome destination wedding HOB.  You'll be the most beautiful bride on the planet with the BEST[/COLOR] [COLOR=0000FF]    MANICURE ever!!  I'm so very happy for you!!![/COLOR]

Aww that put a big smile on my face. Thank you!

[COLOR=0000FF]     Great haul---gorgeous selections and mani---loving the brights so much!!![/COLOR]

Thanks! I used to steer away from neons but now I'm kinda liking them.

Here's my current pedi and mani. It's very warm and sunny in the UK today (rain's coming tomorrow though), so I'm wearing a summer dress and flip flops, and I thought I'd show you my matching nails. Excuse the fat toes please and also as you can see, my mani has already chipped on two nails. :crybaby: Shame because it's so pretty. I'm wearing Barry M Aqua Glitter on the toes (3 coats) and Dior Bahia (teal/green duochrome) with Sephora Silver Rain on top (both 2 coats each).

Love it!

A mani that looks like icecream at this hot day (and something to calm down after all this brouhaha with Riri!): Hard Candy Jelly Bean Blue.

Oh yummy now I want ice cream with sprinkles.

[COLOR=0000FF]My Zoyas just arrived:stars: A colorful little pick me up after that whole MAc fiasco!  I keep getting an image error when I tried to upload the pic.  I'll try to share my pretties later.[/COLOR]

Woohoo! Can't wait to see what you got.

I'm going to post/comment later but here's quickly Azuré and CG DD: DD looks a bit darker and more chromatic in the sense that there's a yellowish cast that does not seem so apparent in the Chanel. Difficult to say if they are dupes (enough).

They look very similar in the bottle.

Stunning haul! The ones I left in are my favourites. Can't believe I hadn't pulled the trigger on those A-Englands yet, I just sent an email to order them this evening as they're not up on the UK website. Hopefully will be on their way to me very soon. Wow, I love how the matte tc looks on this!  Congrats Honi!! 

Thanks! I love the way it toned down the neon.

oh you NP hussy you... STOP TEMPTING ME

Lol @ NP hussy!

<----- This is the best smiley I could find to represent hussy. She even flashes her nails.

I'm eyeing the creme blushes but I'm not that good with them. I have several, but they don't get much use. There's one that I just can't resist so I'll just stop trying.

I recently experimented with some NYX cream blush that I bought but never tried, and some NARS cream blush that I bought during their private sale earlier this month. I must say that I'm a fan. I like how it tints your skin, and I also like layering powder blush over it. I tried using a blush to apply, but I got better results dabbing with my fingers. I'm eager to try the new Chanel cream blush.

Love your choices. I'm planning to get A Positive tomorrow. I received part of my Hare Polish haul today. I'll take pics. Pegasus and Electric Flame were among the colors delivered. They're so pretty in the bottle. Get the Finder's Keepers collection if you can! I wasn't to impressed with the swatches I saw on Llarowe's site, but they looked really good in Buick's Hare wheels. I decided to give them a shot. I'm so glad I did. They're gorgeous.

Love your manis. I'm trying to stop hauling Finger Paints, but you're making it hard. I love how the names all relate to art.

 

[CartoonChic]

Thanks! way too often. well usually every 2 days. but i have been lazy and leaving them for 3-4 days.
thanks macina!!! im so excited all those hare polishes look gorgeous! im going to be doing manis with them as soon as i get them.
thanks!

Lol @ being lazy for changing your polish every 3-4 days. Then I'm really slacking. I'm still wearing my Purple Nurples/Stance mani. I think it's been a week. I'm aiming to change my polish every 3 days, but I just love the bright purple color. The nail supplies I ordered from Sally's arrived today. I'll do a polish change tomorrow. I'm thinking a Hare polish. Haven't worn one yet.

THANKS GIRL! i wasnt going to get A positive but what the hell its my blood type!! also YOLO and i love the swatch they have at Lla. the type of white glitter in it.
do take pics. i cant wait for those 2. im trying to think of base polishes for them too, or doing really thin coats. idk buick told me they are like BCL but some how i m still worry.
i just dont want another A-england Fiasco.
i have 3 keepers in my cart. the teals and purple. i really shouldnt but i think i may place an order before i got to bed.

why stop buying Finger Paints!!!???????????????????

@ CC

they ROCK!! i love the colors they are coming out with and the names are just cool too. like you say they are very artsy.

also, when you get all you hares. could you do a family picture. i want a goal picture

i think im a manic at changing my polish. some weeks i do them everyday. but im lacking the feeling lately,
as long as the mani looks nice. a week is ok. i wont condone chips or nail growth. peeling polish. no no no. we have so many polishes its a crime

same with naked nails!
YES!! do a hare. and tell me how you like it. but holy cow which one first? hard hard time deciding.
also i was planing to get some dollish polish but i dont like the new bottles. i cant stop thinking about that. i still want the sponge bob one. i saw your mani and it was crazy cute.

i have to go to sallys soon. i need seche vite, and a polish thinner.

I'll take a Hare family pic just for you. What's BCL?

Lol! I'm only stopping Finger Paints to cut down on brands. I never factored in indie polish. I didn't know anything about them until this thread. Right now I'm buying from about 25 different brands. That's more than I want to deal with.

I'm think I'm going to pick either Hooky at the Hamlet or Let Them Eat...What?.

I completely understand not buying a polish because of the bottle. I like looking at the bottles. That's part of the excitement for me, so I can't buy a bottle I don't like even if I like the polish. Like with the Dance Legend bottles. But I do like the new Dollish Pollish square bottles. I got 2 colors in the old bottles and I'm returning them because they're not square. Purple Rain and That's So Fetch. I didn't even include them in the haul pics.

Now that's not saying I won't keep a must have polish in a different bottle. The brush handle of my Emily de Molly Cosmic Forces is different from the other de Molly bottles I got. But I'll live with the discrepancy for that color. Cosmic Forces seems so difficult to get.
