Sorry to hear you missed out on the overpours. I only bought the Nailed It. I quite liked a couple of others, but decided that I probably have similar polishes already.As I had suspected, I missed almost all of the HHC overpours I wanted, just got 1 plus the Cupcake.
Anitacska hope all of you are recovering x
I'm feeling better now, thanks, although still not back to normal. For the past week or so I've been feeling okay-ish, but tired and a bit congested. Luckily I've had 3 days off this week, only worked on Tuesday (from home), so I've had plenty of time to rest. Bit annoying as I wanted to get some stuff done while on holiday, but I've really not felt up to it. Oh well, they can wait.

So this is what I've been wearing for the last week or two - Illyrian Glass Slipper:
This is a pretty colour but I'm not convinced it suits me. I'm also getting bored with it now, but it's still going strong and who has time to change polishes that are in perfect nick???

I have to be honest, this is a bit bland.
I'm terrible about changing my polish. I try to patch it up if it started chipping, because I know that if I take it off one evening, I will not stay awake long enough to paint my nails the same day. I need to do them tonight, but I didn't sleep much/well last night and had a very early start, so chances are I'll just put on a basecoat and paint them properly tomorrow.
I'm finally feeling okay (since Saturday), and I'm back in the office tomorrow. It's been nearly 4 weeks since I was last there!

It's very sad when work eats your polishing time! I know the feeling haha, fortunately my manis last a bit better than yours.
Glad you're feeling back to normal - I recently had a month out of office too (until last week, due to medical treatment). Going back last week was a serious shock to the system

So anyone keen on the new Glams? I am very underwhelmed.

No, they look really boring. Ah well, money saved.

I'm much preferring the look of the upcoming Kathleen & Co Rainbow Unicorns, they're so pretty!
I'm waiting for more swatches but I like this picture a lot.

My December (!) HHC order came on Friday, I like both polishes. Apparently they're going to catch up with the shipping, but I haven't heard anything about the January order yet.
My Glam order should be here soon too. It's only 3 polishes and I have no idea what I ordered, it's been so long! Oh well, it'll be a surprise!
Not sure what to do with PPU, I like the look of a few polishes, I think it might be cheaper (ie. less expensive, still not cheap) to send them here directly. That way I don't have to worry about Stackry dates and fees and might actually buy less.

I actually took pictures of my mani (Cupcake Polish She's a Lady), although the pictures aren't too great as I took them at work. I had a lot of compliments on this polish, so I kept it on for 4 days, but it had to go eventually. Of course my nails are naked again, because I took the polish off last night and promptly fell asleep. Oh well, I'll do them tonight.
Anyway, here are some pics:

They are pretty!
I haven't seen PPU yet but if I want anything I don't know what I'll do.

This is really pretty, it's the kind of colour I've been buying recently and this is a lovely version of it. I don't remember this one coming out.

I've checked the label and it's from Nov 2020 PPU. It actually looks very blue in the bottle.

I had a very busy week, got so tired by last night. Normally I get a lie in on Tuesdays, but my youngest had to go in early, so I still had to be up at 6.30, plus I swapped my WFH day to Thursday, but didn't get to have a lie in then either. I enjoy working and I like being in the office, but I'm not keen on the early mornings, the commute and the cost of it. Very happy about the 3 long weekends this month! Couldn't care less about the coronation though, lol.
I received my Glams, they're nice. But yeah, this latest release was very boring.
I also wore a Glam called No Way, Jose! and even took pictures, but only on day 3 and in the office, so they're not the best. Nice polish though.

These are very pretty - the one on the left is my favourite! And I love the one you're wearing (a name I don't remember...). Nice to see a couple of recent manis from you!I had a very busy week, got so tired by last night.

I've had a look at both PPU and HHC today. My PPU list has four on it at the moment, Cadillacquer, Nailed It, Ethereal and PfD. I'm still deciding what to do though.
HHC has two new ones (Garden Path and Night Owl) and 3 GLL overpours (which I am certain I won't get due to launch being at about 5am!).

I have 5 from PPU on my wishlist, but I'm not sure I'll buy any. I do have 3 of your picks, so maybe I'll ask for decants in the future.
I mostly like the Girly Bits from HHC, I'll definitely order that. I also like the Femme Fatale, but it's not really unique.
I've passed on the new FF releases, there were only 4 plus 2 mysteries, but I don't do mysteries anymore and the other 4 weren't exciting enough.

My first Nailland delivery just arrived - next day DHL, no extra fees. I have your PfD! I got very confused - I'd left pending my PPU order (which had been added to other items, and included my replacement polish missing from a previous order) - but they had added it to my delivery, so that was weird and unexpected. Then I went through to check all was as expected and the replacement had a totally different name to what I ordered I googled the name of what had turned up, because it was labelled as Jan PPU Ard As Nails as expected, and it looks like they changed the name because I found someone else with the same issue! Anyhow, all is well with my order now and at least there were no additional costs.
So I have one final delivery pending for Stackry (expected delivery tomorrow) and I'm into the paying storage phase of that, so I plan to check out as soon as they have it - so
Anitacska
do you want me to hold your PfD so I can ship it along with your PPU items when they get here? (We left postage for both orders until later.) Let me know your preference, no hassle to me either way.

Since I have 4 PPU polishes coming from Stackry and the Royal Mail technically only allows 4 polishes per package, I think it would be best if you posted this one separately. I get too nervous about this otherwise. Let me know how much I need to send you. I might as well send you the postage for the other lot at the same time too.

Hi
Anitacska
- sorry about the delay, I had to work on campus late last night and then left my laptop cable in office so I missed this. I am out again now but I'll get it shipped on Monday.I've decided to skip the Ethereal for PPU and send the others to Nailland - I can add it to those K&Co polishes coming out soon.
