Nail Polish Discussion - Any Brand

[PearlyQueen]

Also, Thank you PearlyQueen and Anitacska for the kind words about my mani! The maybelline - well, I had high hopes for those and got all four, so it was extra disappointing. But hey, for 1,75€ each!

Thanks Anneri, that's an interesting idea and I might try that next time I'm tempted by crackling! I think it will be a while mind you! I also tend to get a bit confused as to whether they work best really thickly layered or really thin. Yesterday's first nail worked perfectly and is definitely better than the others - I even kept it when I stripped the rest off after a disastrous first attempt! The pic I posted is infinitely better than my first try, but it's still far from perfect, which is another reason I might be down on it. I'm still not convinced that looking like you've taken a brillo pad to your nails is really a good look for anything that's not a post-apocalypse party! But I do sometimes like them on other people, and I've got them now so no doubt they'll eventually make another appearance.

Oh, btw: can anyone recommend a good topcoat? Not one of the thicker ones for glitter, I'm set on that front. But I'm starting to hate my former tc - essie good to go. Prefarably one I don't have to order somewhere, but I'm open to all suggestions!

Sorry Anneri, I'm rubbish at top coats - I tend to pick up cheap ones. I use Layla Brilliant Due for my holos, but other than that I just get them from Boots, Superdrug or eBay. I get tempted to try all the ones people recommend, but as yet I haven't tried Poshe, Seche Vite, HK Girl etc - there's always a colour that I'd rather spend my money on!

Meant to add, I got my EP shipping notice today!

Really thin is the right way with them.

Anneri's mani made me think of those Dior sets a few years back. Was it a jungle or animal? They were discounted here but I was not that into NP then.

Today's mani: KBS She Twerks Out. This is actually a texture polish but I put TC over it because it was so matte. The glitter combo is very nice but all shades don't show here.

Anyone here knows of an impending Pshiiit EP restock? I'm only asking because I got an e-mail to say that one of the EPs were in stock (I'd requested notification), but when I got to the site, all of the products had disappeared. So I'm wondering if maybe she was adding them to the site and then deactivating until launch time? Or am I overthinking it?

By the way, I've finally got my EP shipping confirmation!

I dunno. I have only noticed (and wondered) that EP is no longer on her list of brands. Also she seems to be in vacation in Normandie.

Yay! Me too!

No, it is there in the brands' list. Oh I don't know. I'll keep checking anyway.

Hello beauties! I have been AWOL for a while teaching, which sapped up all my time and energy. I also had to wear plainer manies Now I am wearing all my brights all the time and BF wonders if I have gone crazy lol. Up next, using all my colour changing polish before the summer ends!!

Right now I am wearing Models own Golden shore which is an orange jelly with silver glitter shards. No good light for a picture today, will try for tomorrow! It is nearing the end of its days I am afraid.

Am travelling down to the states in August, so today I made my first Julep order. A friend has a polish named after her, so getting one for the holidays for a gift. Got a sale item for me, and many add ons at the last second (They ran out of the buffers, boo!!).

Had a small issue where my order went through without the add ons (Due to the buffers being out) and they were sweet and super helpful in getting it fixed right away, A+ customer service.

Looking forward to it! Anybody tried their masks?

Anybody else using colour change nail polish this summer?

Will go back a few pages and read up on what I missed, but it will be far too much to catch up on I am afraid. Hope everybody is doing well/ having a better summer than spring! Missed you gals!
