What a surprise! She also said that the mid-July pre-orders will ship today and yesterday, but I very much doubt that too. I certainly haven't had a shipping notice yet. That said, I'm not too fussed as it's going to Stackry and my box is current;y empty anyway.

My tracking still hasn't moved, that's a week now. Not good.

Yeah, I saw your comments in the Illyrian group. It will be interesting to see when she actually dropped them off. I don't believe that she has, tracking usually starts updating within a day or two.

It looks like she still doesn't have the brushes, so the mid-July pre-orders aren't shipping yet either. As I said, I'm not in a rush as my first orders have only just arrived at Stackry, but I'm curious to see how many more excuses she'll come up with.

Also, it's really odd that the shop is still open, she was supposed to close it a week ago. Seeing that her TAT counts from once the shop is closed, I'm wondering if she's going to use that as another excuse for longer than usual TAT. Yes, I am very cynical.

I saw Delanie's swatches of the upcoming polishes and some of them seem very sheer, I only like 3 of them.

Pretty! I don't have this one.

My Different Dimension winnings came the other day, no customs, she put $5 for value. I really like them, very happy with them.

Hi Anita, apparently they've found my package - I'm really dubious about the shipping myself. I'll be interested to see whether it's got the wrong brush or not - dead giveaway if it's the normal one! I reckon she's been holding it till the new ones arrived so she didn't have to send the replacement and free gift... Am I cynical too?
I wondered why the shop was open for so long, I guess you're right! I wish I hated her polishes!
Have you got a link to the swatches? I've only seen the initial pictures.

Oo, nice! Freebies are great, and that's a cute little package!

Ha! Interesting! I'm not even sure I believe the whole missing brushes excuse for the delay.

The swatches are on Delanie's YouTube channel, Fat Cat Pawlished.

Had a look at those swatches, thanks Anita, I fancy about 4 and maybe one of the BIBs. Nothing I can't live without, but I like them. We'll see!

This week's mani is Wet'n'Wild Eggplant Frost topped with Illyrian Aw Shift:

This is gorgeous! Very nice purple base and Aw Shift is amazing! I have used a few of the Illyrian toppers lately and they're all so good.

I've been meaning to post some mani pictures, but have been really busy lately and also my children have been hogging the computer, so all I have to use is my phone and an old laptop, and I really can't be bothered with the hassle. Will do it sometime soon.

I love Estrella, and like Blush and Morning Star. I'm torn whether I should order this time, or in 2 weeks, but I think given her bad track record for sending orders out on time, I might as well do it now and then that way they should arrive at Stackry before I have to send my stuff. Really want to try and limit my use of my Stackry box, it costs too much nowadays with the crappy exchange rate.

 

[Anitacska]

Here are some manis and pedis, first is Glisten & Glow Fire on my toes.



First mani is Tonic Polish Tonic Appreciation 2018 topped with ILNP Mayfield and Enchanted Polish Rainbow Juice (with pulp).











Next is Dreamland Dragonberry (first version, very faded) with Polished for Days Numinous.





This is Femme Fatale Snow Globe with Ciate Fancy Pants.

 

[Anitacska]

Next up is Lilypad Lacquer Malibu Beach with Emily de Molly Folklore.





This one is Bear Pawlish Haloki (over black) with Illyrian Polish Prototype 203 (or is it 201? I think this was one of the mislabelled ones.)









Glam Polish Princess Parking Only with Pretty Festival





Next one is Girly Bits Turducken with Polished for Days Rainbow's End.

 

[Anitacska]

A couple more pictures of Turducken, it's a very cool polish. Also loved the PfD.





My current mani is KBShimmer Some Like It Scot with Femme Fatale Icicle Vale.

Still waiting... but Kaleidoscope has arrived at Stackry, so I guess that's something!

I'm converted to Illyrian toppers - bought Dragons Breath on Friday!

Totally agree - of course, now I'm getting stung for import fees so who knows which is cheaper??
