Nail Polish Discussion - Any Brand

[Bcteagirl]

Ok, I am behind on a few photos:

First off, my previous mani, SppparrrrKling garbage! For sure going to wear this again during the summer. It was fun and for some reason stood up extremely well to wear on me, which is unusual:




My current mani is Borgese Palmero Plum:




And my order from the GC I won on a blog sale arrived! Also pictured are some recent random purchases:



Purchases:
OPI Make Him Mine (Sand); Revlon wintermint (Scented) and Micheal Kors Envy (From a set at the warehouse sale, my first MK!)

From the blog sale: Lynderlla attitude Adust-mint, urban decay vice, happy hands I am jack's broken heart, Nubar pyramid purple, and Orly The Right Amount of Evil.

The Urban Decay seems to be welded shut. Given the bottle I searched for a secret button on the skull you have to push or something I will try hot water, then nail polish remover if that fails.

They are my first Happy hands and Nubar polishes.

Has anybody used the revlon scented polishes? The spring ones are out and I am tempted, but I am not familiar with the forumula. I was lucky to grab one of the last set while I was in the USA.

Great haul ! The Revlon one looks lovely and Mickael Kors classy ( we don't have the brand here ), very good choice indeed !

LOL! Same thing here. Although I didn't react to the Anna Sui polishes (I didn't know they had a light rose scent when I put them on) so who knows!! Ahoy fellow mint polish addict lol!

Hello ! There are lots of formulas in fact, " regular" np, various effects so it is difficult to say. The one I have is very good, but I haven ´ tried the other ones. Some are more pricey than others but the cream or classic formula is less expensive. The Formula X polishes have a good feed-back generally speaking Here is Dior Porcelaine a few weeks ago

 

[Monsy]

Your manis are so perfect.

thank you so much

new Enchanted polish.

7 hours ago
Enchanted Polish/Mishka "Lobster Roll" available April 14th at 12pm (NYC time) on mishkanyc.com and at Mishka NYC, Mishka San Francisco, and Mishka Los Angeles stores. @mishkagram @gregmishka#enchantedpolish #mishkaNYC #lobsterroll

I love this colour. No seriously, I NEED this colour. And I know I won't get it
Thanks for the tease though, I'll give it an attempt! It's hell being an Enchanted junkie, so many polishes, such high prices, such limited availability, so many rivals for the few there are!

 

[PearlyQueen]

Thank you Kimibos!

Thank you Medgal!

That is the cutest!

Thank you!


Thank you Anneri!

Thank you MRV!

My birthday mani, EdM Head Over Heals with Belissima on the accents. I love HOH it's such a gorgeous colour. Much pinker than it looks in the picture btw. Beautiful!

Here are the presents I got, my older daughter bought me 3 nail polishes from Claire's! She knows me well.

I did ask my hubby to get me the eye cream though.

I love your birthday mani - such a gorgeous colour, and the accent glitter is a stunner (who makes that one?). I love EDM though, their holos are definitely amongst the best I own.
Glad you've got your daughter trained up in what to buy you for prezzies! Those are very cute and summery. Nice to hear you had a good one.

This is gorgeous!

Hmm, yes, I wonder if the very limited status sucked more people in than it would've otherwise. That said, I've not tried any of my new PPs, so don't know how must haves they are, but I do like the look of Borealis anyway.


This is a lovely colour.


Thanks!

Oh is it DC'd? Sorry to hear that. Wonder if Not Another Red might be the same/similar? http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Glitter-Gal-Not-Another-Red-Holographic-Holo-3D-Nail-Polish-Bright-Red-/111035969426?pt=LH_DefaultDomain_15&hash=item19da426f92


I saw this, it's pretty, but obviously I wouldn't be able to get my hands on it. Also it's $20!

Ooh, are the cars the sweet, little brown ones? I got a couple of packs in Sweden. Needless to say they're all gone.

I managed to place $100 worth of orders between the Colors by Llarowe restock and some Mentality polishes, so got free shipping, but yes, it is a bummer that Harlow has put up her limit. Still, Llarowe only offers free shipping after $200, so hey.


Thanks. It was very pretty, both the colour and the holo.

I paid 5 euros for the 6 bottles, but it would've been around 11 euros if I had gone over 50 euros, so decided not to add the 7th bottle.


Thanks Jenny!

I think you're right about the limited availability on Borealis pulling people in, it's something I tend to fall for myself, but lack of funds put paid to it this time!
That other Glitter Gal does look awesome (and is still available!), I'll definitely be keeping an eye out for it next time I'm ordering at one of their stockists - won't be buying the eBay one though, shipping is a silly price to the UK!

One more post from me, Llarowe posted this on FB about tomorrow's restock/preorder:

Wednesday April 9, 2014 we will be launching the following lines at 12:00pm MDT and again at 7:00pm MDT:
A Box Indied, April - back stock
Colors by llarowe - restock (pre-order) please note that if you order with other lines all of the polishes will be delayed until the Colors by llarowe is shipped. If you would like the other lines now please place individual orders
CbL Oops! Mystery Bags
Hare Polish - restock
Models Own - restock and new collections
WingDust - restock and new colors

Several questions coming in on CbL and will address them all here.
1) Anything on the site currently will be restocked tomorrow for pre-orders.
2) The Reno Air Race Series will be re-launched the 3rd week in April for charity to benefit Prostate cancer.
3) This will be the last appearance for the following polishes. These will be limited to what we have left and will not be an unlimited pre-order:
Best Day of My Life
CbL Addicts Blue Me Away
Coal in My Stocking
Come Dance the Hora
Days of Our Polish
Grace
Holly
In Another Dimension
Let's Tango Baby
Pink Twinkle
Polishing Under the Influence
Shimmering Waters
Sparkles are a Girls Best Friend
Tazmo Kramer
Turquoise Twinkle
Tweety Bird
Will You Still Leave Me Tealmorrow
4) Oops Mystery Bags may contain unseen polishes but at this point I don't know what is left.

I skipped this restock as none of the ones I wanted were on the "final call" list and with those new Enchanteds coming at Mishka I wanted to make sure I had funds just in case I win the EP lottery!

(First pic is pre clean-up so ignore the mess!). Really love it.

That's a nice haul - and a pretty mani. I have a few A Englands, but I've never worn any of them! Must try soon...
