Lovely picks!!!! However, I have a déjà-vu. Nail polishes look like those from previous years, and also the eyeshadow quads look, imho, like last year's, but with a different "print" on them. Won't stop me from buying it though! :p But but but, no highlighter? Or maybe something else will be packaged in something WAAW?

I only have 1 round bottle, last year's gold leaf top coat. I do see a few more round bottles in my semi-near future!

I have over 200 bottles of polish.....I started with boxes. Then I worked an event and the couple were somehow connected to OPI, liked me and sent me like 100 bottles of OPI. So I needed a rack. 
I have 224 polishes on my list + all the cheaper ones (drug store brands) that are not on my list. I have a lot of boxes, one per brand and 2 for OPI

My NPs are in the boxes by number, lol. And my excel sheet also mentions the collection etc. My whole life is organized in excel. Glitter polish: lots of acetone-free disolvant combined with lots and lots of patience. I soak a cotton thingy in disolvant, and let it then soak on the nail for a long time. Repeat 9 more times.

When I have to get off nasty glitter, I go to a salon to make them do it. Then I apologize and leave her a nice big tip. Every time I have tried to do it myself I end up losing patience with the acetone and end up picking at them and wrecking my nails on top of everything else.

OPI ( I think it's OPI) has this glitter base coat that you apply before putting on the glitter nail polish and when you're ready to remove it, you just peel the whole thing off! My friend likes it but says it smells just like Elmer's school glue. She's convinced it's glue haha.

It is PVA glue and there are many brands that make it. What works for me is to get these little pink thing-em-bobs on ebay. You put a piece of cotton soaked in acetone on the nail and the pink thingy holds it in place. Leave on for like 5 minutes and then it takes the polish off. It's the equivalent of soaking your finger tips in acetone without soaking your fingers in acetone, which is what the salons do. Another method that is very popular is the so-called foil method, where you put the soaked cotton on your nail and wrap the nail in foil to hold it in place for 5 minutes.

One option:http://www.ebay.com/sch/i.html?_from=R40&_trksid=p2047675.m570.l1313.TR0.TRC0.H0.XNail+polish+remover+wrap+tool.TRS0&_nkw=Nail+polish+remover+wrap+tool&_sacat=0

Yeah I've used those pink things before at the nail salon. They can get tight though and cut off your circulation after a while lol. I think I might like the peel and go method more. I hate soaking my nails. Which other brands besides OPI do the glue thing? Have you used any and if so, which one did you find worked better for you?

Just went to the Dior counter because I had a voucher for a gift when you buy 2 products (of which 1 big perfume). I got the Dior Addict eau fraiche and the Nuit 194x nail polish. so many new lipsticks, and I didn't have the time to actually look at them :-( But I got 4 samples, Be Dior, smile, Wonderful and Tribale One day I'll have more time.
