Nail Polish Discussion - Any Brand

Thanks, yup, you need it.

Love that giraffe pattern. Where is it from? And Cloud Nine is so pretty. Don't have that one.

You got Lace Man, too! I have not ordered it yet. Last I refused to pay the Llarowe price (Euro is almost the same as USD now, everything 20-30% more expensive

).

Here's EP Freeze Machine over BL La Moss:

That's so pretty, I was so tempted to buy Freeze Machine though it's not in my usual style - I think I'd have gone for it if there had been something else I was buying at the time.
I have filed that in the back of my mind now, maybe one day I'll get it!

I have a spare FM if you're interested, I bought it for swapping, but honestly, noone really wants it. Plus I can only really swap within the UK. You can have it for £16 incl. postage if you're interested. Also, I was thinking of you the other day, I was in TKMaxx and they had a ton of Illamasqua polishes for £3.99 incl. Veridian. I still have that if you want it. Or just go to TKMaxx!

New mani. Ciate Ferris Wheel with Collection Fairy Dust and Cotton Candy caviar pearls. I took the photo immediately after I finished the mani as I suspected it won't hold up for long. I was right, most of the pearls have now fallen off. It is really not a long lasting mani. The only nail that held up at all well was my left thumb because I messed it up first time round (don't put topcoat on the pearls as it melts them and the colours just run off) and I had put rather a lot of polish on it so the pearls stuck down better, although didn't look as good as the other nails. Anyway, I suspect even those will be gone after my morning shower.

Thank you! The giraffe vinyls were from Rainbow Connection, it was a set with the Feelin' Spotty polish. I think they're from Nail Vinyls, definitely not Diff Dim.

Ugh, that's a pain with the Euro. Hope it goes up again. I'm not sure where the £ is compared to the $, hopefully nice and high, so we can buy lots of cheap stuff when we go to Florida next month.

Lovely mani, very glowy!


Thank you. It is so much prettier on the nail than in the bottle.


Thank you. Every so often I create a mani that I really love and this is one of them.


It's pretty much the three of us, with Fuzzy and Anneri popping in occasionally.

I Forbid It is even prettier in real life. D&D is very pretty too. You can't go wrong with EdM.

Oo, yes please! I'd forgotten all about Viridian, I'll check out TKMaxx tomorrow! PM me how you would like payment for FM!

What a shame about your pearly mani! I looked at those little vials so many times, but I suspected they'd be useless, sounds like I saved myself a few quid!

It was kind of fun, but not practical. In the end not only most of the pearls fell off, the remaining ones seem to lose their colour. Oh well, it was an interesting experiment.

My current mani is EdM Sakura with Orly Miss Conduct and some cherry blossom stamping.

 

[PearlyQueen]

PM'ed you.

PM'd you back!
Love your new mani, that red is especially gorgeous and the stamping is nice on it.

Thank you. It's actually more of a dark pink, but came out red in the photos due to the sunshine. This is probably more colour accurate:

Hardly wear polish but this week I'm using an Orly base coat and OPI Don't Pretzel My Buttons

 

[PearlyQueen]

So here's this week's mani, Polish Me Silly Chill Out:








This needs undies!!! I spent all day yesterday trying to get it to work as a 3-thick-coater and it looked OK when I took these pics. However, I spent the rest of the day having to redo it because it hadn't dried properly and I kept taking chunks out of it. I thought I'd beaten it and had a really pretty mani, but I got up this morning and every single nail had "bedsheet" creases. So I'm off to do another mani this evening! And Chill Out is going into the "toppers" drawer!
And guess what - no new polishes for this week! So 2 used, none added, I'm moving untried mountain one pebble at a time...!

Your nails are A--MA-ZING! The colors in this mani are so pretty. Too bad about the sheet marks. I chuckled about the untried mountain. I can relate----I wore BL
Tramp Stamp for the first time over the weekend. I laughed at myself when I realized it had never been opened. I haven't purchased NP as nearly as often or as much
as I once did. That said, I'm waiting for Chanel Intemporel (Shimmering Silver) to arrive. That's right---just one NP!

Super pretty

I hate when polish wont dry hard!





no mani pics from me- I have to get back at it now that I'm starting to feel better. no polish hauls either, I did get 2 Sugarpill pressed eyeshadows from their birthday sale(Candy Crush & Kitten Parade)
It also needs to stop being so cold. Extreme cold weather alerts almost every day!
