Every time I grow my nails long enough to reshape they start to break. Short and square seem to be the best way for me to maintain my nails.
I ordered Ablaze because of you Liba and it just arrived today. I'll have to wear it soon!I actually really love that slightly pointy almond shape!!! I keep trying to get mine like that but always fail - even trying to describe it to a manicurist always ends in failure. You have small nail beds like me. Do you have tiny hands too? When my nails are too short it looks like I have baby hands - it's annoying.
In other news, I got my Orly Mash Up collection today - wound up being more cost effective to get the whole set discounted online rather than just buying 4 locally. Sparkling Garbage really isThe pink and lavender are pretty dupable, but I can give 'em out as presents to some friends who do their nails. I also got the rest of the CG Texture collection - it's totally trendazoid, but they're cute. I won't stress out if I wear them a few times and then never again, but they're definitely nice in a mixed manicure. Last week I really enjoyed using Ablaze np on the thumb and pinkies and the orange, rose and blue textures on the middle nails. The Textures can cling to dirt a little - I'd just cellophaned my hair and the purple dye would snag on the texture and not really wash out. No biggie - I'm not exactly expecting to use these up, so the more I reapply them, the more I'll feel like I'm getting my money's worth anyways.
I finally also got CG Whirled Away, which is totally awesome. I don't even understand why it got some bad reviews - it applies like a dream. I'd love to try it in some sort of mix 'n match manicure involving the pale pink and green Textures and maybe the hot pink from Mash Up.

Aha! Is that what you were wearing in your beautiful photo in the RiRi thread?I did a new mani today with YSL Bleu Majorelle.
My nails were stained pink after removing Chanel Tentation. I didn't think the color was that strong.

Very pretty reverse accent. Based on what you're wearing here you will love Dior's Nirvana too. What a steal. I now swear by the Dior Abricot cuticle cream---absolute noticeable improvement in my cuticles!I checked out "the other department store" yesterday and saw the Chanel Summer Collection! I hope I can get Azuré and Bel-Argus. I also finally saw OPI Oz polishes IRL. I might be tempted to get 1-2 glitters from that collection in June, once I have hauled all the LE collections on my list. They were also selling all OPI LEs (except for Oz and Central Europe) for 30% off, but I can still get OPI cheaper from the US.
Instead I found Dior Nirvana for 50% offand finally received my Abricot Creme!
Thank you for reminding of this collections! I was just thinking yesterday that I have nothing on my NP list for fall.
Love Paradise! I have it and I'm saving it for fall. The green also looks lovely. Your cat is like a cat statue on that window sill!
Awesome! So it's holo on holo? I have to try something like this.
I'm actually wearing MBM atm. Do you mean Sun of a Peach? I think it will be very different on nails. In the bottle it looks much lighter and whiter than MBM. Shell-o looks lovely, too.
I was wearing this mani earlier this week (the phone cam just destroys it): a reverse accent with BL Slapper (such an intense green teal!) and Emily de Molly Falling Skies (holo-ish glitters).

I received my China Glaze sunsational haul today and I'm really disappointed.
Gorgeous colours but damn, the formula is bad with the exception of That's shore bright.
The first coats were an absolute joke.
By the way I only got:
Sun of a Peach
Highlight of my Summer
Neon & On & On
That's shore bright
They were all quite matte, especially That's shore bright, it dried really fast too.
I also got jinx from the Opi Bond collection
It's beautiful and my first liquid sand polish

That's too bad about the formula---I swear there are hits & misses in every brand---drives me a little batty sometimes.
Yes and yes. Sounds perfect. I have CC Wham! Pow! which I liked a lot, but it seems like the formula changed, maybe it has expired. So I need a new bright orange summer shade. And the coral cast is a nice twist.The neon coral-orange and robin's egg blue are quiet superstars too - similar to other colors that have come before, but with extra oomph. i'm wearing the blue right now and the subtle shimmer is so beautiful. It's a very thin formula, so you have to do 3 thin coats, but that leaves a really deep, beach glass sort of finish. The orange and pink dry down to a rubber/satin finish that's very cool, too.
Hope & Freedom Fest collection was more awesome overall, but Mash Up is going to get plenty of use.
Do you want a very bright orange with a tiny bit of a coral cast, rather than straight traffic cone? Are you interested in a rubber/satin finish? Then I'd say this is a great color! The bright peach colors we're seeing creep in, like Mimosa's Before Mani's and the upcoming CG and MAC peaches are a little bit "newer" for the fingernails, but for whatever reason, I feel like neon orange is my favorite pedicure color for the summer, bar none and the Mash Up one is the nicest one I own.
OMG, your Shiseido tempting is getting under my skin!
No, the blush is not scented. If I sniff really close the powder has a teeny tiny bit of a smell, but I'm kinda hypersensitive to smells, so normal people probably won't smell anything, lol. There's no added scent. Nowhere like Guerlain, Givenchy etc. And not comparable to their skincare, which I'm allergic to because of the scent. I think you would like it a lot.

Too bad but many neons are matte in fact, I have a Sinful colours one, a Orly one ( Beach Cruiser ) and another Orly ( La Vida Loca which is not matte ), 2 or 3 coats are necessary I think. And then a topcoat, without it no neon effect or result. The OPI sand ones are pretty, you picked up one it's great !
