What is b3f?

 

[BuickMackane]

Here are the pictures. First one in shade, the last two in direct sun. Even though it's not as holo as some other polishes, I think it's very classy and such a beautiful shade.

I love the base colour. But it's not holo enough for my liking. Get a grip ChG!

Love it! Are these LE or widely available??

A sneaky lunchtime haul...

L-R Pulsating, Green with Envy, Gold Save the Queen

I don't actually know. I got them as soon as I could just in case. Just swatched the Topshop holo polishes, they're actually very nice, different to the CG ones, the holo particles are much bigger. That's the beauty of these CG ones, they are so smooth. I don't have the OMG ones, so can't compare, but compared to other brands, they seem much smoother.

Poor postie looked a bit like a yeti, covered with snow.

It doesn't look like I need some sunblock today, does it?



I actually like the quite subtle holo of the CGs! Maybe there's a haul in my future...

You should go out and play in the snow!

On second thoughts, maybe you shouldn't. Yikes!

For how long is this delightful weather expected to continue? Not for long I hope because if it does, your postie with impressive work ethic (well, he does have impressive work ethic if he delivers sun block in a blizzard) will flee to the Caribbean and you'll end up with lazy tossers who deliver things two months after they were shipped

i have been damned by the polish gods!!  my catrice feel the yacht beat broke as i was trying to swatch it in my catrice wheel. luckily i was able to sacrifice the color club top coat i got in the magnetic duo, and safe more than half of the polish. im sad the bottle was cute. 

Oh no Good thinking though!

 

[Naynadine]

Ah, I thought Missha was a part of the colour name. Silly me

That's very thoughtful of your postie. Sun exposure without protection causes premature ageing y'know.

I really don't know what PostNL's problem is. I have noticed a pattern whereby envelopes arrive on time while boxes take their time. I want my NPs dammit! It's 3 small orders from Cult, one whoa! order from Illamasqua and one small order again from Illamasqua. I'm going to go downstairs to the post room later on in the afternoon to see if they're actually there. Which is very very unlikely but I'm getting desperate here.


Yeah. A few peeps from this thread should perform a ritual dance in the background, which involves standing in a circle and flailing limbs like possessed.

I haven't got a black robe though. All my outfits from my short-lived goth period have already found themselves a new lease of life in the form of dusters.

I'd volunteer for that.
You can borrow my black cape from carnival when I dressed as Batman. That'll do.

I agree about the CG holo. Nice color, but somehow they aren't doing it for me. I don't think I'm getting any of them.

You'll get there in no time hehe. What's on your blue wishlist?




Yeah! We can use Kimibos' broken Zoya bottle pic on the cover. Guaranteed bestseller

Oh I just adore you Buick---honestly love you brighten my day!

My blue list includes a few brands---Essie (Lapis of Luxury), Dior (Electric Blue), Chanel (Coco Blu) & Deborah Lippmann (Mermaid's Eyes) to name a few. I need to slow down a bit. I want a dog (Yorkie) and one might be available from a breeder, in a few months----so excited!

Looks like a winter! Here nothing is never closed because of snow. Unless the buildings fall down.

I'll have u kno this pic sent me to Nordies to pick up Spring ball. I was only going to swatch the colors lol but I had to get that one. I also want the reddish one.
i really shouldn't have got it yet but the girl went upstairs to get it for me so I felt bad lol
ima get the other one ( I think/hope) when Nordies has the triple points day... unless I buy more makeup lol I want a lot from Mac in april! plus I'm waiting for the mew
DL collections!
thank you medgal for ur sweet offer I should start taking pics of my hauls and make an effort to get on the computer once a week lol I've been slacking on that and the pics
I really want to try my dior polish but I'm sticking to my green challenge! although I think I have more than a months worth to try lol

Yay Naughtyp. Tell me about holding out with this green challenge.

I went from EL's Absinthe to YSL's Jade Imperiale. I love green but I'm going nuts wanting to wear the beautiful spring colors---seeing them everywhere is such a temptation. March 17 will be my last day with green for awhile!
You're quite welcome. You sounded sad and dejected and we can't have that!!

 

[MACina]

What????????????????

Oh no

Nice polish! I actually ordered this week a Korean polish, too! It's a minty glitter (I hope). I can post a pic as soon as I get it.


Unfortunately yes! I got 4. Should have not

. I counted last week that I just had received like 20, another 20 on their way and I'm just ordering more......

You've been sniffing too much!

Yeah, but the price has already gone up .

I dared to count my polishes a few weeks ago, but I've already lost track!


Thank you for the pics! I might get 3 from this collection but I have already gotten other random and better holos so 3 max is enough.


Did you get a message from Illamasqua? Packages have been destroyed again!!!

Not my speckles, nooooooooooo!

Although, I did not fully get if they are going to send me my big order again or possibly the speckles?!

Looks like a winter! Here nothing is never closed because of snow. Unless the buildings fall down.

 

[Medgal07]

Thank you Dominique. Her words are beyond mere expressions and deserve a category all their own! Hence, I came up with BUICKISMS

im going for my gold metal. i went to cvs they had loreal at B1G1/2 but they didnt have confetti the glitter so i didtn get anything. they had covergirl like that too plus a 3off coupon from vogue, i got always naked and out of the blue. i also got 2 spoiled glitters. trust fund baby, and pet my peacock. also sally hansen perky pink.

sallys had b1g1 free of the China glaze soleil collection including eyelashes, so i got

Surreal appeal
hanging in the balance
def defying
igniting love

i also found sea spreay at $3.99 at the sale basket.
i got a bag of 10 nail wheels to do swatches. im soo excited. i swatched all these colors and its sooo pacifying.

Oh I think you're there Kimibos. Lady you have skills!

From which brand did you order yours? I've my eyes on some TonyMolys!

Is it very bad that I started to laugh at your last sentence? One reckons that people in Scandinavia are able to scope with snow, of course. Different from here, honestly. And Frankfurt is particularly bad.

 

[Medgal07]

Love. love, love these!!! The combo is amazing Kimibos and it looks good on your nails because they have the length that most suitably displays the polish!

CG: Sea Spray, Surreal Appeal,Hanging in the Balance, Igniting Love, Def Defiying. these are very bright

Covergirl Always naked with Spoiled Glitters: Pet my Peacock and trust fund baby. and Sally hanses perky pink.
the blue is Covergirl Out of the blue.

 

[Medgal07]

Love that green too MRV!

Polka.com is very pretty. I accidentally ended up with two other polishes that are practically dupes if anyone's looking for a cheaper alternative: Beauty UK Posh Polish in Pinkabloo and Topshop Hope Floats. Here are a couple of comparison swatches (the order is Beauty UK, OPI, Topshop):

A girl has to party every now and then---so you can make up for it another time!

yeah so, I went to a party Saturday night, and uh, yeah.. I didn't make it back. :-( I'm sowwy...

 

[Anitacska]

That made me laugh. I have a Finnish friend who is always amused when schools close here when it snows. Everything stops in the UK as soon as the first snowflakes hit the ground.

I'm originally from Hungary and don't remember ever having the school shut in winter - ever!
