argh I like Kellie, Scrangie 2.0 and Accidental Interloper but alas RBL does not play nice on my nails. Too thin or something. I have 3 or 4 of their polishes left in my stash and every time I cave for a collection I end up selling them or giving them to my kidlets. I think Accidental Interloper has a good dupe in A England and I am over run with blackened olive greens {I cannot resist them why scrangie why u do me like that? argh olive green love..... must remember polish consistency issues} but Kellie~ I avoid anything corally {not our Corally of course she rawks} but it looks way more pink. I can do pink.

Help me with the dupes peeps

Have you ladies seen RBL's bloggers collection?

I'm really interested in KellieGonzo's and Fashion Polishes colors. I'm on the fence about Liberty. Don't know if I need another Mint green in my collection.

Briarwood is on my wishlist of course since it wasn't available when I ordered and that pink one in middle? It is awesome saucy. I LOVE it. The red is very sexy despite the sad lack of blindingly in yer face holo. I had been warned, via bloggers reviews, that it was the skimpiest in holo dept but I was still sad when I saw how not there the glitz was. The entire collection is a total winner for me tho. The first of the A England collections I have wanted to purchase all of ;")

to nail polish heaven Pinkdollface!!! The NP porn alone is intoxicating but so wonderful. I can come here, look at the manis and hauls and
my cares just melt away!!! I'm trying to stay out of the Enchanteds pool---so dangerous....for now I admire from afar. I'm on the lower end of 500 NPs
and although Dior is my fav brand, I turn away from nothing. My latest buys were 8 Zoyas and the three Chanel fall NPs, Alchimie, Mysterious &
Elixer. Be warned, your "just over 100 NPs" will proliferate very quickly here but you'll have a ton of fun in the process!!!

TY, Honey! It is something different. I don't have that many blues, or metallic ones.


They are very tempting but I'm sure they would be the ruin of me

TY, Jenny!


They look lovely! Is the one on the right the 5th one?


This is odd, I don't remember anything like this happening to me and I nearly always chip in 48h.


The polka is looking really nice on you! And that texture (the same one I got
winks.gif
) needs to be opened here, too!

I did not know SH makes glitters. Is it LE? We seldom get LE collections here even though the brand is available. Like they are still selling the Essie Spring collection here, the ave-hue thing. No sign of the next 4-5 collections...

I think she meant Enchanted's own site.


Talking about Llarowe, look what I just got:

oh Kimibos that is so very very sweet of you. I will contact you later if my switch witch doesn't pick it up for me. I am participating in one of those switch things through middle of August and it is the only actual product I asked for. Everything else I put on my wishlists or pinterest were do it yourself type of things cus I didn't want to stress anybody financially. OK I did pin a flexi-8 cus I always forget to order those suckers for myself but they are so cute. But yeah everything else was here is something that caught my eye and hey look DIY version pinned too.

editing to add and yay I was destined to see this cus for once there were only 2 pages instead of 20 since last I was on.... normally I would have totally not even read all the msgs between but hit up gallery

Ok so I've just read something about Enchanted polishes and saw them all sold out at LIarowe's site. Someone said they would restock the 30th, but I don't see that announced on their site. It sounds like some nailpolish brands have the same crazyness around them as Mac in the sense that they sell out so quick. I'm not sure if I want to bother with that, but I do love the swatches of Enchanted. I especially like the Time to Pretend collection. Do I have any chance to still get my hands on them?

Hi Pinkdollface, welcome to the nail polish thread!

There will indeed be a restock on the Enchanted Polish website on the 30th, i received an email about it a few days ago. The email also mentions the exact hour of the restock, but i forgot lol. Will check my mailbox in a few and let you know :) I hope you're in for a good fight tho lol, because Enchanted Polish restocks are always an absolute MADHOUSE, way worse than MAC releases. Everything literally sells out within minutes

*Fingers crossed* we're all able to snag some polishes on the 30th!

Thanks you as well for the welcome! Also thanks for informing me about Enchanted. Too bad it seems so hard to get their polishes. I'm not sure if I'll be able to stalk the site on the 30th, because it's a sunday and then I'm with my bf. If you could let me know the exact time that would be great! I'll see then what I'm going to do. I'm not even sure if I have the money for them now. If you're going to stalk good luck and I hope you can get what you want!

I researched it once... a normal bottle of polish {OPI or CG sized} lasts 40 mani's. That means, if you redo your color once a week, you only go through a bottle and half a year. I personally don't change out my pedis more frequently than once a week {and usually every 2 weeks} but manis do get changed often for me. This does not stop me from buying more polish of course but since you are being all logical and stuff..... btw welcome to the nail board.

Thanks for the welcome! You have a nail polish heaven yourself! 500 nail polishes

The reason I'm thinking it's not worth to have much more than 100 is the following. I can only wear a polish 3 days in a row to get through all 100 in one year and I don't change my polish that often and I'll wear some colours more times. I just feel so bad that some wouldn't get used in over a year.

That's interesting to know thanks! I try to change my mani 2 times a week, but often I do only once. I don't do pedi's, because I almost never wear shoes were you see my toes:p Also thanks for the welcome

Again, if you don't like/want Ice Castle, I'll be happy to take it off your hand!

I really want Ice Castle, Castle on a Cloud, Love The Way You Lilac and I'm Kind of a Big Deal.


I also consoled myself yesterday and ordered a mini set of duochrome holos from Pretty Jelly. These ones: http://www.etsy.com/uk/listing/130224373/the-goddess-collection-5ml?ref=shop_home_feat

PS. This is the list of EP polishes I own, printed it out yesterday to remind myself what I don't have yet.

A few pics. I just took off this mani: Orly Mayhem Mentality. I took these pics outdoors after 11 pm the other night, and the colour was just insane! I think this is a must-have neon!



I'm also wearing here the Dior Gel TC. I put it over MM because neons chip so easily and I wanted it to last, but I did not get any extra time, just (barely) the usual two days.

Yesterday I got some beautiful Australian indies, Chanel Bel-Argus, and some more Chanels:



I went to this mall hoping to score some HEs, and they did have a bunch of them! I chose Starlet, Distraction, and Péridot (all on sale!). They also had Quartz, Beige, Emprise, and another very light pink, possibly Tendresse, can't remember (and Pêche Nacrée and Black Pearl which I already have, Pirate and Rouge Noir were sold out). I was not able to go all wild, especially as mother was with me. Perhaps I should have gotten Quartz instead of Starlet, oh well.

They also had two ELs for 7.20 Euros

but I already have them, bummer.

I love neons! The brighter, the better.

You got a great deal on those Chanels.

So I switched up a few things in my nail care routine and I'm really excited about my new prooducts. A couple of them were from the sephora opi sale so I hope I can find them in the regular opi packaging. If not, I may have to head to Sephora and stock up.

Old products

Ive been using Mango remover ever since I found it at Sally's but it really isn't anything special just got it cause it was on sale.
CND stickey base coat has been my go to base for a loooong time and I still love it I just wanted to try something new.
Julep Cuticle oil is great cause it's roll on and fast absorbing but that price just hurts. (I got mine for free from being a VIP maven)



New Stuff

brush on cuticle oil is so easy to use and It smellls so good!!
Cuticle remover - One word WOW! This stuff is awesome and I will be chucking my mango remover out the window.
The base coat is pretty good too. I usually have slight peeling on some of my nails but so far I haven't had any. It says it's a "hydrator" so maybe that's why.

Click to expand...
I'm looking into a new base coat. I think I'm going to try the CND stickey one and will also look for a hydrator base coat to help with my dry nails. I've been using the Lippmann cuticle remover lately and love it, although it's pricey. I don't need any water for it, it's gentle, and very effective. I was using an old Sally Hanson green gel cuticle remover, but it wasn't all that great. I tried another Sally Hanson cuticle remover that is meant to be stronger and more effective, but it was too harsh. Looks like that blue cuticle remover fits somewhere in the middle.
