Nail Polish Discussion - Any Brand

[Medgal07]

There's no way that spilled nail polish is irrelevant to a bunch of NPAs. I don't cry over spilled milk, but I just might shed a tear or two over spilled NP. The last polish that I remember spilling was Butter London's, Come to Bed Red. It was as if the bottle jumped out of my hands. I laughed at the time because I felt so stupid, but I somehow managed to scoop the bottle up before more than a drop spilled onto the hardwood floor.

This is probably irrelevant to the current discussion but I just had to say ... Ugh that moment when you spill your nail polish and it gets everywhere!

Okay, rant over ..

Spring's coming... well, maybe in a month because it's still freezing cold! This is Orly's Melodious Utopia. Unfortunately I can't get the lovely pink shimmer to show in the pic.

Medgal, you needs this!

 

[Medgal07]

Thanks MRV! What does one do about curling tips???

I need to get that creme soon. Luckily I can order it. Just waiting for a nice discount!

 

[Medgal07]

OMG---Gorgeous!

You're right--I do need this. It's on my list!!! It is freezing cold but this color would warm anyone's day. Is this before or after you cut your curling tips? Your nails look great!!!

Medgal, you needs this!

You can still get three of them at Bloomingdales--1,3 and 4. I never saw 2 there. If this helps for swatches at all--

they are pretty... but I don't get them. Why are they separated?

Thanks, Medgal! It's after cutting them. You can't see the curl because the pic is from a side. :lol: The curling is really annoying. It's hard to get the polish on the outer corners, especially with a wider brush.

82???

The crown is definitely yours!

Unfortunately there are always so any new shades to discover, new brands you've never heard of, etc., I think we can safely say we could be buying 80 new polishes every month and never run out of new ones to buy! That's why I have so many polishes already.

CC. I really like Trench and was actually concerned that I might already have a formidable dupe for it, but next to my other nudes from Dior and multiple other brands it's unique enough to justify its purchase. You'll have to let me know how you like the glass nail file. I need to stop adding to my wish-list and enjoy some of these amazing NPs.
I amassed 82 NPs in March and I have no intention of even coming any where near that in April. I'm staying within a reasonable 5-10 (stop laughing and shaking your head

at the very prospect of that) if possible. I'm stoked for the warm weather and just ordered new outdoor pillows and lanterns and such.

77 does count as less

but I can't think of 77 colors/NPs left that you don't already have!!

 

[MRV]

Oh I want!!!   but pink shimmer? really? 

Yes, there's a fiery pinky sheen to them.

 

[Anitacska]

I don't get it either. I thought they were supposed to give a tie dye effect or something like that.

No, it's a shaky! :nanas:

 

[Medgal07]

Well, you're definitely making the most of it because I would never have known!!

Yes, there's a fiery pinky sheen to them.

 

[Medgal07]

I agree with you all! I was expecting the tie dye effect. Have we missed something here?

They would look cute displayed on my wall racks, but for that I'll have to pass. nevertheless, the colors are very pretty.

No, it's a shaky!

 

[Medgal07]

I was fairly MIA for a couple of days and I think I've gotten caught up, but I still haven't seen our Buick.

I'm missing my Buickisms already! As long as she is A & W and hasn't gone to stage an all-out physical assault on the Illamasqua plant, we'll await her colorful return! If she has we'll all chip in $$$ to bail her out of the pokey!

Hi ladies,
I've swatched 20 Lancome nail polishes if you are interested in seeing them

http://cheekmeout.blogspot.com/2013/04/fall-in-love-with-lancome-vernis-in-love.html

these are superb. Lancome really impressed me how they improved the formula

 

[ForeverJenn]

what did it get on? I kno T posted a link to someone who wrote how to remove it from different things I can sorta remember what it said...

It got on my bed spread lol .. Idk what I was thinking when I decided to do my nails in bed

 

[Anitacska]

Oh Ladies, I am ashamed to tell you that I have failed miserably.

I was supposed to not buy any polish this month other than the Urban Outfitter ones. Well, I went to London today, managed to get the Silver holo one from UO (it seems we're only getting the silver one, not the pink or blue ones here sadly), and then went off the rails and ended up buying LOADS of polishes. I'm going to hide under a rock in shame now. I'll let you know what I got when I emerge.

Lol! I knew it!

Do you mean 5-10 a week? I think that's very reasonable.

 

[CartoonChic]

I can't wait to see your haul!

I was expecting a tie die effect, too. But I'm still intrigued because of the comparison to YSL Premiere Neige. It's a beautiful sparkly top coat. I'm thinking Premiere Neige may compare to Dior Cristal based on Med's swatches.
