Nail Polish Discussion - Any Brand

[Honi]

That should be fun Honi! Hope you'll share that experience with us!

Sure will!

I'm getting very frustrated. Every post takes me two tries because Safari quits simultaneously. Has been happening since I downloaded a software update on my iMAC

Forget multi-quoting....it quits as soon as I do so and then the page reloads, requiring that I start all over again!

And I just bought a Totoro Kigurumi on ebay, someone please stop me

I had to google that... sounds like a fancy japanese knife or something. It's way better than a knife I see.

 

[Medgal07]

Hey! I missed chatting with u too

i've been really busy and stressed out lately so i mostly just have time to lurk. And we're dealing with some legal issues too which will probably drag on at least till april if everything turns out well. God, i need a shopping spree to chill!

Sounds like a haul might be just what the doctor ordered. I hope things work out for you!

Fancy pyjamas, definitely better than a knife

Collective haul with a few NPs:

Includes:
Formula X, Sparkle Bomb
Dior Holiday Frimas, Minuit & Marilyn. Also Dior Apricot, and Golden Light & City of Gold gifted to me by my Saks SA.
DL Pseudo Silk Kimono, Good Girl Gone Bad, Ruby Red Slippers & Rolling in the Deep
Butter London Double Take Blue Coat & Lecoy
Butter London Double Take Rebel Fox & Brass Monkey

I couldn't get a photo that showed the "Rose Gold" NPs by DL & EL but neither look particularly rose gold to me!

I googled it too and costumes came up on Amazon!

 

[Medgal07]

I have two purses that I had planned to sell there, so I'll see how that goes.


Thanks!


Aww, thanks, Medgal!

Yes, and kimibos. I did get a message after her surgery, I guess she's taking time to recover now.


Congrats on your anniversary, I wish you many, many more to come!!

Thanks Naynadine! Sometimes I hesitate to make a big deal of it because there are so many people who didn't have a great outcome.

 

[Anitacska]

Yes, put ALL Hares on you list!

Thanks! Hope you'll get your previous orders soon!

But... ARGHHH! 3+ F...ING HOURS!!!

to get these: Army of One, Come Dance the Hora, Days of Our Polish, Grace, Mojito, Paper Moon, Woman from Tokyo. You'd better start pushing the buttons or it's midnight soon!

Don't feel bad, Anneri. I'm sure we're all just happy for you!


Lovely manis! I actually saw 2 Maybelline Brocades today for the first time. A red one and a silvery/goldish? with pink (looked just like AE She Walks in Beauty).


These are also lovely! I intend to wear SSS as a base for a glitter.


Thanks! Yes, exactly. It looks like a rocky surface.


Thanks, Med!

Argh indeed! I've only just managed to place my order. I forgot about it at 4 (I also had to pick up the children from school), so it was about 45 minutes into the pre-order when I tried going on the site, and failed. I kept trying while cooking, but my cart expired on me. Then after supper I had to take my daughter to piano lesson. I started adding again, but ran out of time. The site is working much better now and I'd actually managed to add 16 polishes within 30 minutes! Yes, 16, instead of the 12 I was planning on getting. Hohum.

Very nice haul! But I'm jealous of your Dior Frimas, that one isn't available here and it's the only one I wanted apart from Minuit. Grrr! LOL

 

[Anitacska]

That's for sure. Happiness can be fleeting. I'm celebrating today---It's the 11th anniversary of my double mastectomy---I am grateful to be alive!!!

Wow, that's fantastic! Very happy for you!

 

[Anitacska]

Finally I've got around to posting some pictures. I spent some of my child-free time this afternoon sorting out my polishes, my latest purchases were all over the place. I boxed them up and updated my spreadsheet. Except for 3 polishes that I don't know where I put...

Anyway, I've taken pictures of my new INP polishes:





Sorry the second picture is a bit blurry,

I also chose my next few manis and these are the polishes I'll be using in the next few days. In fact I've already used the Miss Sporty polish tonight (it's the purple one on the left in the first picture). It's a nice duochrome.





Finally, here's my mani. I wasn't very happy with it, I think I applied too many coats too quickly and it bubbled up, but it's a nice colour, so I left it for 2 days. It's Darling Diva Polish Persephone over black topped with EP Djinn in a Bottle. It's a nice duochrome and the holo topcoat works well with it.

 

[Anitacska]

Just a heads up, the Llarowe pre-order is closing in an hour as they've now sold a massive amount of polishes! So if anyone want any, do it now!

 

[Bcteagirl]

In the end I didn't really see any difference between the Nails Inc and Julep gel like top coats. And I think I will stick largely to Seche Vite.

I got tired of the chipped Deborah Lippman, so yesterday evening I switched to Sea Dust by Urban Outfitters. A light sparkly sea foam with darker green flecks. I like it,and am surprised that it is decent considering it was quite inexpensive. Day 1 is over and no chips yet.

I succumbed, been eyeing up those CbLs for a while, ordered 5 to start with! Spent less than I'd expected on other makeup /mac holiday collections, so... What's the green BL in your pic above? We need names woman!!

 

[Medgal07]

Awww that's not fair! Why is that BTW? My Saks SA said they went really fast which is why she sat one aside for me.

 

[Medgal07]

Wow, that's fantastic! Very happy for you!

Thank you Anitacska!!!

Which BLs are those? I love your haul. I also love your mani---you have a real knack for pairing colors w/your manis.
I'm trying to catch on. Here's my current mani---it's Chanel Vamp and accent nail w/ DL Ruby Red Slippers.


Not the best photo but you get the idea. It's really very pretty!

 

[Medgal07]

Arrgh...ladies, a polish that I have in my stash (and many of you may also have it) is depicted to be rose gold. Butter London Champers!!! If you have it
please let me know what you think!

 

[josephine90]

I caved and ordered 4 CbL polishes, I chose to combine shipping in case I decide to get something from Lilypad tomoro, suggestions anyone?
