I finally got my Essie - Where's my Chauffeur in the mail and I'm officially in love!! I will be wearing this A LOT.

cant believe i still havent worn this yet! i love it! your nails are perfect =)

 

[Medgal07]

I agree. Swatch those Pearlmattes!

Reporting back to you ladies. I've worn Flatter Me and I love it. I'm a collector of heart shaped objects--mostly jewelry and novelty items so I can't bring myself to dig into those beautiful peach hearts. I swirl the entire surface to get a lovely peachy-pearl highlight. I liked it so much that I ordered Veronica's blush. Back to heart shaped objects---an old friend gave me a heart shaped bottle of red nail polish---super cute.

 

[Medgal07]

...now that I see the polishes have Veronica and Betty printed on the bottles, I want them

I would love to hear how you like the texture of these!


Medgal, you always arrange your goodies sooooo pretty in the pics

Thank you MACina. The dark blue N/P, Double Trouble is for my daughter along with a Spoiled Rich e/s quad....a little gift for Valentine's Day. I hope to wear Comic Cute sometime soon. That said, I have MANY MAC N/Ps and I love them. I'll definitely take a pic when I wear it.

It's call product overload Naughtyp! The condition of not wearing your nail polish because you have TOO MUCH.....TMNP

All of us here have been stricken at one point or another

 

[Medgal07]

I usually buy all of my Makeup from Nordies b/c of those points. I made it to level 3 and felt bad. That means I've spent a lot of money on makeup. SMH... LOL It's so sad...

You're spending wisely Prettypackages!!!

@MRV

What are those tin looking heart shaped things in the middle? I have not been reading the AG thread for a week because it exploded just when I went away and I have not had time to catch up.

Not sure I answered you MRV. They were tins of candy given out at the event. I'm friends w/the MGR so she gave me two...one is for my daughter. The box in the back of that photo is the brush set. The things that I've used so far: Caramel Sundae guad (love this thing...my new fav neutral palette--soft & girly); Flatter Me Pearlematte FP; Betty Bright Lippy; Ronnie Red Lippy and
Lord It Up eyeliner. So far, I'm very pleased with everything!

 

[Medgal07]

really? didn't know that. ~still not going to get hooked~ Nope, not gonna do it. LOL but these holographic polishes are pulling me in... That collex was beautiful. I want the black, red, and purple.

Ok ladies... give me a list of brands to start researching.

chanel
dior
YSL
Zoya
Butter London
China Glaze
Essie
OPI

Deborah Lippmann, Estee Lauder

Score! Today was a fantastic shopping day. I stopped by Nordstrom Rack today after hitting up Nordstrom for an Archie's CP (and got everything on my long list). I found the Olympic set and got it for $15. It's like getting 3 Butter Londons for the price of one.

Unrelated to polish, but I also used a Bath & Body Works coupon to get a good deal. I had to spend $10 to get a free Signature Collection item up to $14. The $14 item coupon seems kind of rare now since the limit is usually $12. I like their Fragrance Mists which are usually $14. I've been wanting the Red Fragrance Mist, but it's $22. They had the mini version of it on sale today for only $10. I got that to meet the $10 minimum, and then got another full size Fragrance Mist for free.

I also opened a Saks card while I was out. 10% off and there's a promotion for a free gift card depending on how much you spend. I think I'm going for the lowest level - spend $250 to get a $25 gift card. I think this is the perfect time to get my first Diors and more YSL polishes since I was already planning to get some this month.

YOLO! Time to dance.

Awesome CC!!!!

I got an email from A-England about the shipping. Basically order numbers higher than 11600 were sent to their forwarder on Feb 6, who will ship them to Llarowe (for the US) and Le Doux Nuage (Europe) to deliver to us. Order numbers below 11600 are asked to wait 35 days from the shipping date to receive their packages.

My last two order numbers are higher than 11600, so I guess they'll be delivered in the next couple of weeks. My first order was lower and I already received that one.

I got that E-mail too. I'll be getting my one and only order 35 day from the shipping date---that's okay with me. I have way too many other NPs and makeup in general to keep me busy in the interim.

 

[Medgal07]

So pretty jennyap ! Do you use one coat if the N/P formula provides that level of opacity? I've always used two coats, regardless.

I'm currently wearing another of my A Englands for the first time - Tristam. Love! It was pretty much a one-coater except in a couple of places where I messed up. In daylight it has a hint of purple to it on me. The holo is fairly subtle - needs more sunlight, which we don't get much of in February!

In artificial light:



In indirect sun:



In full sun to try show the holo:



I also think it looks perfect with this ring I bought recently:



Blues and greens (and everything in between) are definitely my favourite colours for polish.

 

[Medgal07]

Btw dior at the palazzo got tutu! Mine is on the way.. Woo hoo.

Yay honey on boost---I'm on the hunt.

I've been in a pink mood lately---wearing EL's Narcissist today---LOVE!

 

[Medgal07]

[Medgal07]

I got more YSLs and my first Diors from Saks.

YSL Premiere Neige
YSL Bronze Pyrite
Dior Gris Trianon
Dior Rosy Bow

I would've bought Tutu, but they don't have it yet.

Trianon & Rosy Bow are my favorite Diors---let's see what happens when I can finally get my hands on TuTu

 

[Medgal07]

One of my favs. Looks so much better on you!!!!!

I finally got my Essie - Where's my Chauffeur in the mail and I'm officially in love!! I will be wearing this A LOT.

 

[Medgal07]

Lol. It's like a nail polish language.
Get the Butter London Olympic set if you see it. Props to kimibos for posting that info. I would have never gone there if she didn't mention it.

I just found the Nordies Rack in my area about 15 minutes away.....

In other words, you have danger 10 minutes away in either direction!

That's a pretty amazing deal!!!
