Nail Polish Discussion - Any Brand

[Corally]

Back to A England today. This is Princess Sabra:

What does everyone use on their cuticles? Mine are suffering in the cold weather and they really need some TLC!

Gorgeous mani! I use Lemony Flutter from Lush. That stuff saved my life.. errr cuticles. :lol:

 

[MRV]

Oh so pretty! Is the NP as pink IRL as it looks on monitor? I LOVE it. I also have that Glamourdaze blush, Divine Desire which is why I didn't purchase Prom Princess from AGs

Thank you, all! I was thinking SW would have made a great V Day gift to oneself if you didn't have it already.

The colour is actually more intense - a raspberry-ish pink with fiery orangy glow.

I'm wearing Layla Gold Idol today.

Used Nfu Oh Aqua Base under it for the first time, except for one finger, but I swear I can't see any difference in the intensity of the holo effect. Btw, how do you pronounce Nfu Oh?

Someone asked me about F21 Love&Beauty polish before, well they're having a sale.. $2 a bottle. Happy hauling!

I just caved and got Illamasqua's Raindrops at Asos with their 10% Valentine's coupon. We'll see how it goes with the Mail! Looking forward to it and had to sit on my hands not to get more polish!

This is a time when being in the US is a downfall. I've been waiting for Raindrops to pop up on Sephora but no luck. And ASOS US isn't offering any illamasqua polish on the US site.

Thank you for the heads up though. Can't wait to see it on when you get it.

I don't see what's so great about Raindrops, I saw the swatches on Temptalia, but to me it's just meh.

I'm really wondering that Asos still has free shipping and is apparently unaffected by all these nail polish shipping restrictions?! I would have loved to get some Paul & Joe and Pop polishes - any views on the quality of those?
Btw, they also had some OPI polishes for about 7€ - from the Bond collection.

Hey, I'm a Paul & Joe collector! I have 24/30 of their LE polishes. I've been meaning to post a group pic of them but we have rarely seen the sun on the weekends this winter.

Paul & Joe is kind of a hit or miss brand (like MAC

) but they have some awesome items. I think their nail polishes are good in general, but since I haven't actually worn most of mine I don't have a complete view.

Two of the summer 2012 polishes are now only 5 GBP! I liked the silver glitter holo but I haven't worn the other one yet.

Oh I love this green!!! This will be on my list for a future A England order. I have issues with my cuticles too. I don't allow the manicurist to cut them...that's dangerous for me, from a health perspective. I put a cuticle cream on them at night but also throughout the day, if I think of it. Burt's Bees makes a good one.

Oh I like Raindrops. I was going through a pale-colors & grey phase. This NP needs me---and I, it!

 

[Medgal07]

Okay, this is what happens when you're bored

. The sun was out for a minute----and I was feeling warm and fuzzy-----and poof

:

 

[Medgal07]

So, continuing on my feeling light colors phase, I decided to wear a NP that I've never worn before-------Butter London's Teddy Girl---goes well with a smokey eye & Girl Next Door lippy.

That looks so pretty on you, it's not a colour I can pull off with my skintone but you rock it!

Thanks for the recommendation, I haven't been into Lush for years, sounds like it's worth a visit

Here's a couple of indoor pics of Princess Sabra. The holo shows up slightly better in these - like the other A-Englands it is fairly subtle, only really shows up under strong direct light. I love it though!

 

[kimibos]

Yes, I have tried so much and I still get a several supplements.
It is not for a job.I have had several whitlows during my chemos and due to the heavy immunosuppression in the past and obviously my nails never recovered completely

Thank you very much, kimibos

ohh sorry hun, my nails dont seem to suffer as much as my hair, or that just overall body ache feeling

i love princess sabra on you jenny, its on my to get list now! nice haul medgal im drooling at that chanel powder and the illamasqua nail polishes look amazing! and teddy girl too. ill get it at another BL sale, i ended up passing the valentines sets.

 

[Medgal07]

What a difference lighting can make-----really shows even more, just how pretty Princess Sabra really is!

i just noticed that asos has no nail polishes at the usa site, like wtf, they only have stickers!!

Thank you kimibos! I was perusing nail polish and nearly re-purchased Teddy Girl.

I quickly checked my inventory document and laughed my head off. At least my taste in NP is consistent!
