I could always send your femme fatale Anitskca and you could perhaps return the favour with Illamasqua in the mid year sale?
Really? Thank you so much! I'll be happy to send you anything you like from the UK. If you don't mind, I'll pm you my list from Femme Fatale. Just let me know how much postage I need to pay on top and how to pay you! Thanks again!

Finally, my Llarowe pre-order has arrived! And the postman came while hubby was out, so he didn't see it!

Also my Harlow & Co. order came with my KBShimmers.

I have mixed feelings about my Llarowe polishes. Firstly Shimmering Waters, Turquoise Twinkle and Tazmo Kramer are very similar, even more so than in my picture. Also, Deanna, It's Blue is much darker and duller than I expected, but that might be my fault, I think I might have got mixed up, should've ordered House of Blues instead. And thirdly, in a couple of the sprinkles the glitter hardly shows up inside the polish, Purple Pizzaz and Bea Stings namely. Maybe they'll look better on the nails. Anyway, pictures!







Finally, my mani. I had to take yesterday's mani off last night as it started peeling off in chunks (I used NPB Glitter-a-Peel under it, that stuff is useless!). So I used 17 Cameo Crush which is a textured polish. I don't like the texture without topcoat, although even with it, it's not completely smooth. It's less green, more turquoise IRL, with gold/green shimmer. Very pretty. Sadly I broke the nail on my left thumb while baking (WTF?) and it also chipped a bit on my right thumb, but never mind, I'll be changing it tomorrow anyway.



Right, I'm going to bed. Night night!

Lucky timing! :lol: I did think some of this batch of CbLs were a bit similar to one another, but I think it happens with a lot of brands. The yellow one is very different though! I love the colour of the texture polish! And my Llarowe order from the 6th

My nail polish haul from San Fran Vegas! A pair of butter london that were on clearance for 10$ at Ulta (didn't buy much there), MAC Archiegirls polish in Comic Cute (From the CCO), Clinique polish that came with a beauty bonus, Lancome Peach Melodie from the Lancome outlet. I seem to be in a pre-spring coral fling :p


Currrent Mani is Zoya's SpaRitual's Thunder Road (Marshall's) with KBshimmer lilac on top of the ring finger.





Edit: Some of you may remember my misadventure with the really runny purple clinique polish. I will let you know if this fairs any better. :)

Lovely polishes and mani! Which is that last KBshimmer there? And what brand is your green polish? I am a huge fan of sands. All the sale polishes in Toronto seem to be crackle polish, no sales on the sands yet :p


I love that Jindie! A friend and I are just waiting for NPC to bring in the Model's Own speckled egg collection. I have most of the maybelline Dots (And I know where in Toronto you can still find them lol).


Very pretty! I may have to take a picture of my current purple mani before I mangle it :p
The green KBShimmer is Daisy About You (from the spring collection). My mani is from a UK brand (Boots's own) called 17 (or nowadays it's Seventeen).

Dior Pandore. Well it is very easy to apply, the texture is perfect and the colour is very bright ( just one layer here ) strongly recommand it really.

Lovely haul! My Comic Cute does not have the face. Boo. Love your mani too. I have not worn lilac in ages.

Don't forget the Enchanted pre-order, it's on now!
Done!

Red is your colour, Dominique! I'm not sure I've even heard of this collection yet.

. The yellow gradient did not work so I grabbed the nearest green. The mani came out just crazy .

Yeah, show us a sand! Thanks! They come so late that I always have to wait for almost a year to wear them! I'm going to start next October.
girlhaha.gif



Yes, it's nice but possibly a very dubable sand. Congrads on your win! What did you get?


Thanks, kimibos! A holo car would probably be very safe because no one would escape it!

About the EP - I received my Elevation order today, one being Haleakala. It looks very much like Feb 2014! Now I will never run out of plum purple holos!


Yes, the Llarowe holos do resemble each other in many cases. I think I have a million versions of teal! You haul is at least much more versatile than mine (which looked teal of couse!). I think the spring holo glitters are more like "holos with glitter" than "glitter holos". I did like the bleeding Pink Sprinkles though, so hopefully the others are as nice. (PS was the only glitter I got.)

Love the KBShimmers, too. I have not ordered anything yet. That green sand is very nice. Looks kind of 'watery'.


Lovely mini haul! I have eyed that T's C, too, but never got to order it.


Nice mani! Springy with an edge.


Lovely haul! My Comic Cute does not have the face. Boo. Love your mani too. I have not worn lilac in ages.


Done!


Red is your colour, Dominique! I'm not sure I've even heard of this collection yet.

I went out of my way to pick a bottle that had a face on it, my first MAC polish :p

Still working on my order from the win, I may add in a few if the shipping is about the same. I think I will be about 5$ short on the shipping costs, but that is not the end of the world. Will let you know! :)

I also tried a gradient mani today! Came out quite well if I may say so. I used three polishes, EL Teal Topaz, Mac Ocean Dip and Essence I Like.

And I go the brand of my polish wrong, it is spa ritual. Clearly I was thinking about Zoya when I typed it out lol.
