Happy new year fellow NPAs! :party: Did you all have fun last night? I was watching films with the children until 2.30 am! :zzz:

My new year mani is Color Club Beyond with Darling Diva Crooked Star and some stamping that's meant to resemble fireworks. Need to get a good fireworks stamping plate though.

View attachment 50934

Forgot to say I used the clear jelly stamper (I also tried it on my last mani) and it works really well. I'd heard that it's too stiff, but it isn't and picks up images really well. Thumbs up from me!


Mani is stunning! Love all of it!
Happy New Year, hope 2016 as a single woman suits you!
My NYE was dead quiet, watched the fireworks with hubby and cats, that was about it!

Thank you, on both counts.

I've not been anywhere on NYE in ages, even before the children we mostly stayed with family. I enjoy staying in and we did watch some really good films last night.

Lovely manis!

The Alexes take a lot more than I though, you can easily fit 120 of the smaller bottles (like CbL, Bear Pawlish, etc.) and even at least 90 of the larger round ones (like the old Lilypads, Hare, Darling Diva) in one drawer, so they will take a lot, but I'm not very impressed with the Helmer. It's very flimsy. I think I might get another Alex if I can face another trip to IKEA and move the Helmer down to the living room for storing papers and other bits and bobs. 3 Alexes will take most of my stash. Also, I want to get a few plastic drawer units to go on top of the Alexes as there's still loads of room above them and those will be good for my make up.

Have you finished you rearranging project yet?

I'm a bit behind updating but I think once I add those ones it will be around 1500 :eek: Plus about 100 toppers/glitters. Plus what I'm expecting in deliveries...
AKA too many!
I didn't get that Takko, thought it wouldn't really suit me, though it looks pretty on you.

We have about the same number. I have not count my purchases for 2015 yet but at least I did not get that much at the end of the year.

Thanks MRV!
Yeah yeah, buy everything!!!
Gorgeous manis - love the EP!

Thanks, PQ!

New mani is Grace-Full Polish Purplerazzi:
View attachment 50483

Pretty purple! I don't know this brand.

Thanks! LOL they are a bit stained, the OPI polish is a pale pink to neutralize the yellowish tone or at least bring it to peach haha.

To be fair if I had to take the bus to Ikea it might take an hour or so lol but since they frown on flat pack furniture on the bus, I enlist someone with a car!

Sparkling Garbage is great! The jelly white OPI probably adds to the squishyness. I did tiny touch ups on the chips and it wore like iron for the next few days.

Beautiful manis! The EdM holo is amazing!

Sounds like rush hour (more like hours!) around here, but it does get better off-peak which is likely not the case in London! lol

Very Pretty mani, I should wear The Knight sometime!

Thanks!

:drool: nice flakie!

Great manis! a very pretty blue and a glowing red!

Nice! Hot and Spicy is so pretty!

Same for me, no emails at all.

Gorgeous! love those blue sparkles in there

Thanks, Fuzzy!

Nice hauls again (what's the FUN in the middle?) and the mani's more than fine for this season.

It's been very quiet here. Is everyone busy preparing for Christmas? I have so much to show you, my Stackry stuff came yesterday as well as 4 Glam Polishes that the lovely PQ muled for me.

Two recent manis, first one is Different Dimension Musca with Drizlla Tremaine (Mystery Villain 3) on the accents. So annoying though, as Musca looks really blue in the pictures, but irl it's the most beautiful purple. Other mani is Girly Bits From Far & Wide with subtle snowflakes (stencils and Color Club Just My Luck).

You know how I love a good red, and this is a stunner! And indeed, thanks Anita for telling me I should try the brand, this is the only one I have (so far) but I'm really impressed with its two coat coverage.[/QUOTE]

Very pretty! Although it looks more Santa than Spider Man :D.

So sorry to hear that you've had an issue with H&C - I've used them a few times, but never had anything go missing so I couldn't comment on the CS aspect I'm afraid. I hope you get something sorted soon, have you tried a Facebook comment? I've only ever read positive feedback before, but maybe she'll respond better to something more public than an email?

Oh no, sorry to hear about your missing package. I've never had any problems with Harlow & Co, but again, I never had anything going missing. Hope it will be sorted soon.

Hope you have a nice time away after work finishes. Hey, look out for a package at work from me! :whistle: Hope it gets there before the end of the week.

Thanks. Unfortunately the sit is the same. No package, no answer. I should open a case, but I have never done that with Paypal. I don't have FB, on my name at least, so I don't know if that's an option.

Just a quick post to show you some pretties. My Glam Polish FB group exclusives came yesterday and they're all so pretty!

Looks great, esp. in the last pic.

I was going to come back yesterday, but my mother literally sat on the stool behind me the whole bloody day, ugh. I don't like using the computer like that and posting pictures of nail polish because she'd be constantly asking me about it. Also my daughter was using my laptop, but I've got that back now, so here we go.

Ooh, so many pretty FFs! How do those group sales happen? Does she ship them only to US? It took me over a month to get into the FF group, she forgot it or something and I had to ask again, and I have not had time to look into it since.

Two manis, first one is from before Christmas: EdM Third Edition and Scorched Earth

And the Xmas mani was Bow Polish (Dance Legend) - Good God:
View attachment 50803 View attachment 50804 View attachment 50805 View attachment 50806
Seriously quickly got tipwear with this, but my main suspect is my old topcoat that I used. Maybe. I hate to chuck out a serviceable bottle though, and the "control" nail I did with the dregs of my HK Girl has tipwear too, so not sure.
I ordered a big "Bling" bottle of HK Girl with some of my Xmas money, as this one's on its last legs and I've been wanting one for ages!


Love the green shift!

Just a quick mani as we've had no post for 4 days now due to Christmas. Hoping my BSF package comes tomorrow. I also ordered a few Lilypads and other polishes from Hypnotic Polish, but that'll take a few more days to get here.

Mani is CbL Blue, Blue Christmas with Darling Diva Flocons de Neige Sous L'aurore on the accents. The colour in the picture without flash is more accurate.

I've had some time to keep moving my polishes into the Alexes and the Helmer, but they're all filling up fast and I'm only about 2/3 done. Might invest in another Alex, but I'd need to go to IKEA again and I'm not very keen on that. I could destash :shocked:but I'm not sure I'm ready for that.

Such a lovely combo! Love the glitter one.

I've done it!!! I've moved all my indies into the two Alexes. They are almost full, but all the indies have fitted. Yay! I still have to sort out a big chunk of my mainstream polishes (and my Helmer is practically full), but that will happen an other day.

So it's almost done, congrats!

Yay! Sounds great, wish I had the space, mine are crammed into every spare corner, drawer, shelf, box...

Hope you can get some drawers at some point. They are really handy (although I'm already in trouble with my three Helmers, had to move some into small boxes.)

Very pretty many! Love the stamping!!

Enchanted Polish secret restock of 3 new colours on the website now! http://www.enchantedpolish.com/product/winter-dom-vintage-trio

Edited to say, they're all reserved, but I only had to refresh for maybe a minute to be able to add them to the cart. Good luck!

A bit less secret than usually as she sent a message. I had been on my laptop all day, but of course taking a shower when the message arrived. Noticed it about 20 min later, and when I realized there was no SO yet I started to refresh, and they came up rather quickly for me too.

Unfortunately my luck ended today: I did some wall painting to finish up my endless renovating, things were laying around the floor - and I hurt my toe really badly. :ouch: And I shoud be travelling again next week!

JAWDROP! Hey, you got that LE Yeti. I have not seen it in a while. I thought it was going to be part of the core line, but was it LE after all?? Pretty manis again, esp, the first one.

Thank you on all counts. The Fun in the middle, actually not sure if you mean the middle of the picture or the middle Fun, so the Funs in that picture are Fashion Show, The Art of Sparkle (H) and Happy Ending.

Yes, I did get the LE Yeti, well both, Angels are the Yeti 2 and Yeti Has a Bike.

I'm pretty much done with the rearranging. All indies are now in the Alexes, the Helmer has nearly 600 mainstream polishes, the rainbow drawers have 6 drawers of mainstream polishes (around 400 I think). I still have two big boxes full of OPI, Orly and China Glaze, but the trouble is, those are all tall bottles, so only fit in the Helmer, but the Helmer is full and actually the rainbow drawers are pretty full now. Can't put more polishes in there, the bottom drawer really sticks as it is. I also have some polishes in sets, like Zoya, Urban Decay, Color Club which I might just leave in there. Most of my make up is still in boxes though and no more drawers left, so I'm thinking I might get another Alex and a few 4 drawer units to go on top of the Alexes for make up. But getting there.

Very pretty! Although it looks more Santa than Spider Man :D.

Thanks again.

The FF sale was announced on the FB group, it was done on another page, you could chose 4 samples and however many other polishes you wanted/could. She also does COTMs, but those aren't limited to the FB group, plus she sometimes does group exclusives. She ships as usual, but of course it has to be minimum 10 bottles. Keep an eye on the FB group.

Really sorry your H&Co stuff is still missing. I'm having trouble with bloody MyHermes, it's not actually my stuff, I posted them to people. A few of us got together for the FF garage sale and I coordinated it. I then sent off the others' polishes, but two packages have gone missing. They are all ooak samples, so feel really bad for them and MyHermes has been no use. :mad::action1::rant2:Still trying to sort it out for them, but it's not looking good.

Love the green shift!

Such a lovely combo! Love the glitter one.

So it's almost done, congrats!

Ouch! Sorry about the toe. Where are the nice friendly emoticons gone? No hugs ones. :(

Yes, I noticed the EP e-mail after about 20 minutes too. Glad you managed to get them. I have to admit, the white one doesn't excite me one bit, but that mauve one looks really pretty. At least they weren't mysteries. I'm done with her mysteries.

Will think of something cool for my NYE mani, but was too tired to bother with anything complicated last night. I also got a clear jelly stamper from HP, so will try that out tonight on top of this and see how it works. Hope it's good as the concept is brilliant, but I've heard it's a bit stiff.

Love Come Dance the Hora, but haven't actually worn it myself.

I don't remember the last time I went out for new year's eve, I don't actually think I ever have, other than to friend's house or something like that. I do remember I had a NYE party when I was 13, lol. We normally just watch films, then the fireworks at midnight and then go to bed. This year we stayed up until 2.30 though, well, I actually nodded off on the sofa while watching Pixels (very funny film btw!).

I tried uploading from my phone, I don't know what kind of phone you have, mine is a Samsung and it lets me, but instead of gallery it offers documents as the option for source, but then photos are among the documents too. (Sorry, not sure if it makes sense.) I normally upload my pictures onto Dropbox and use the computer to crop them and post them.

I did buy these, took about 10 mins of refreshing to get them, was about 10 mins late in seeing the email. I liked two of them, the white seems likely not to work for me though! But it's like a conditioned response - new EPs, must buy now!!!

Nice to see an EP actually being worn! I don't have that one, not a huge green fan and I'd have had to pay a fortune to get it as it's before my time.
Pretty on though, and I like the accents!
