Nail Polish Discussion - Any Brand

[Naughtyp]

It's Christmas!!!   I received 4 packages today, although 3 were from Norway Nails, she split the (rather large) order up, so it slips through customs more easily. Very pleased with everything, so much prettiness! :eyelove:

Merry Christmas! Lol Wow that is some major haulage! Lol how will u ever pick what to try first? Thank you for posting that list again

Squeal! I got my Femme Fatale package and my Butters from Ulta. I waited all day for DHL to show up since I missed them yesterday. Finally I check my tracking at around 7pm to see what's going on. The package was delivered earlier today at the front office of my building/ They could have just done that yesterday! At least it got here super fast from Australia, so I won't complain too much.

I love the way my Femme Fatale polishes were packed. I'm pretty sure it's related to shipping a dangerous goods item overseas, but everything was well protected and safe. I always worry that my items could get dented and smooshed while traveling long distances. That's what happened to a couple of my Enchanteds from Mei Mei's. Now I'm stuck with dented boxes. I also love Femme Fatale's new packaging. The polishes come in boxes now and the label design is a bit different. You all know I love storing my polishes in their boxes. But Femme Fatale puts me in a dilemma. I absolutely love starring at her polishes in the bottle. They're like beautiful jewelry. I can't do that if I store them in their boxes. I have to decide if I'm going to keep the boxes or not.

Just unbelievably wow! So beautiful. Argh. It's getting harder to resist those Happy Hands... I didn't think to layer I Am The Walrus over another polish. I think the Sparkling Garbage/Mean Mr. Mustard mani is my favorite.

sorry about that DaDi polish. KIDS LOOKS AMAZING ON YOUR NAILS!!!luv all the different color shifts it has. i was talking about the last restock harlow had,my package shipped, i hope i can have it soon.

i dont think ill be able to catch any of the colors by LLa. which is a shame cause beat it is going to be gone. Dirty Diana is staying right?

and go with Cadillacquers!!!!!

Girl all the polishes you got today look so pretty. major envy here! did you get nubars from the Eden collection?? i saw swatches of those today and they look good.

I think Dirty Diana is staying. It wasn't included in the retired list.

 

[kimibos]

That's awful about the seller. I hope there's a really good explanation for the no show.
LOL! Another fantastic haul. You're on a roll. I don't know if you can order directly from Emily de Molly. She's having a moving sale of 30% off. The code is 30OFF. I would so take advantage if I could.

ok Dirty Di and beat it for me now, if i can catch them.
is the Emily sale for Australia only??

 

[CartoonChic]

HAUL PICTURES!!! you got the hares already right!? PICS of those TOO!!!

ill ignore the FF comment!

thanks
thanks! Sparkling garbage gives it a crazy holo.

ok Dirty Di and beat it for me now, if i can catch them.
is the Emily sale for Australia only??

OK. I'll take pics tomorrow. I've been pretty lazy with doing that lately.

I think the sale is Australia only, or where ever else her website ships to. The website doesn't ship to the US. I already tried.

They are all lovely! I especially like the For British Eyes Only and the Elevation Polish.

Does anybody here get the Maven Julep boxes? Do you know if the free shipping includes Canada or not?

I may consider this in the future..

 

[LastContrast]

Oh bugger, I seem to have just ordered 6 nail polishes from Emily de Molly. I've been SO GOOD RECENTLY, but it only came to $7 bottle shipped in the sale so I totally justified it to myself and I have wanted oceanic forces forever.

Dont know if anyone has said this yet, but I was very suprised at the Flower Beauty nailpolishes (Walmart, by drew barrymore). I picked up a dupe of Essies Naughty Nautical and was very suprised at how well it applied and how shiny the polish finish was. Its been since the 11th and my nails are just beginning to show wear at the tips and thats WITHOUT a top coat.

[kimibos]

thanks girl! so far Elevation polishes are pretty good for me Echinops was my 1st one. . there is going to be a restock soon the 22nd or 25th
Restocks every 7th of the month at 9PM (CST) and every 22nd of the month at 9AM (CST)

i have them. i dont know about shipping to canada, maybe you should email them about it. i think their polishes are ok, if you get them in the box or as add ons for $4.50. but they are not worth the $14 tag or even the $11 with maven discount. never ever would i pay such price. the formula seems to be a hit/miss one. also only 8mL. i get the "it girl box" 3 polishes every time. the other boxes i believe have 2 polishes and a new gimmicky product. ex. salty hair spray, dry body oil. WTH
check the shipping thingy, if you can get the box with free shipping then that is a good deal but dont buy any polishes individually.

i hate how they keep getting the indie brand of the year! who that hell gives such award to them?? they are at sephora and are mass produced polishes.

Hah - yes kimiboos I'm in Australia. The one time Australia based polish addiction has come out in my favour! We pay so much for polish here.... RRP on OPI is $19.95 in the shops, essie is $16.95 a bottle & so on. I got oceanic forces obv, ruby soho, rose gold (without bars), majestic flight, hole in the sky and warrior princess (drool!!!!).

I'm (theoretically) on a non spend. Booo to unemployment.

 

[liba]

Woah, I just did a mani in the gold Lippmann Jewel Thief polishes. It's beyond ridiculous

It's so ornate - really is like jewelry for your nails. I've got other gold polishes and other holo glitters, but nothing as textured, bright and just outrageous as these.

I will have to try and get a photo of this to share.

My EP Yesterday arrived today in the post! So pretty!

And this is today's mani, Maybelline Wine Shimmer. It's a pretty deep fuchsia colour, jelly with micro shimmer. It seems to have a LOT more shimmer in the bottle than what actually translates onto the nails, but it's still pretty. This is two coats with no base colour.

I love that one! Lovely pictures I thought the shimmer translated quite well to the nails though, really nice half-jelly polish..

Here's my pic, quite old one though.

Fun! A sale is a good reason. Which other colours did you buy?If you snagged a black forest or cosmic forces I will be very jealous
