These Illamasqua Speckled polishes are really lovely!

Here's last week's mani: Illamasqua Mottle




I also just bought BL Trout Pout and Nails Inc Sweets Away. Essie Merino Cool is sitting in my Ebay cart tempting me.

Thank you! The formula is really nice. I did three coats of that one, but I probably could've gotten away with two. I have NARS Purple Rain on today, and I would take a picture, but when I tried, my camera picked up all of the application imperfections. That's why I prefer shades like the Illamasqua one. They're more foolproof!

Me too! I've been a nail polish addict for 3-4 years now, but I'm still not great at application. The best I've found for that so far have been the Illamasquas and the Essies, though Essie's formula isn't always consistent.

It is easy to do my face but I find it difficult to do my nails

Here are the Diors. I included Gris Trianon and Rosy Bow that I got from Saks last week. I absolutely love the brighter, more saturated colors. Tutu is very pretty too. It's so dainty. But I'm a little worried that Dior polishes may not like me. There was bubbling when I swatched the colors and I have a hard time getting an even coat. I feel like I keep brushing the color off my nail. Does anyone else have this problem? I want to dive in and get more colors, but I need to get the polish to work first. I'm not giving up, though.



Row 1: Lime, Pasteque, Mango, Saint-Tropez
Row 2: Tutu, Rosy Bow, Gris Trianon

I've put on Essie Butler Please tonight. Um wow, that is one bright blue! I'm feeling just a teensy bit nervous about going to work in it tomorrow, but what the heck I love it! I might wear it as is for a couple of days and then add BL Frilly Knickers on top.

Belated Happy Birthday! Love the mani, sooo glam. And LMAO at the salon ladies.


Kimibos, I'm drooling here, these are all gorgeous! I was browsing Nubar colours the other day (

Totally agree. I love that we can all go nuts over NP together without other people looking at us like we actually are nuts

I always make my DH look at my latest mani and he's very good really but sharing pictures here is much more fun.

That looks great on you, very pretty! I'm still not sure if I'd wear a speckled polish - I've only just ventured into glitter - but pics like this definitely push me towards it!
Thank you!

Cartoon Chic... I just want to come play in your stash...

So many pretty manis! My nails are bare atm - feels wrong somehow!

Happy belated birthday, Pretty!

CC, can I come and play with your stash? *g*


Can somebody update me on llarowe's new shipping fees? I know we discussed it already, but I can't find it on her site.

It went up from 7.65 to 12.18 for two polishes. The old price for 3 polishes was 10.78. I don't know what it is now. At least they come quickly.

ATM I'm wearing Hare's Electric Flame (from llarowe) "a peachy orange jelly with glowing blue and purple glass flecks and the same iridescent blue hexes":
