That's great Honi---I have a real soft spot for Essie NPs. Love the vibrant colors!!!
Ohhhhhhh L'Oreal sent me the entire Essie Summer collection and I cannot stop salivating over some of the colors... I've heard theyre quite "jellyish" in the formula though so I'm looking forward to see how they turn out on the actual nails. Wanted to take a pic with my DSLR but ofcourse it had run out of batteries so its IG-pics instead. That green looks gorgeous.

Buick my Dear---your wheels are so lovely. I enjoy looking at the NPs this way, and I like that you have them sorted by brands. BTW, I've never heard of a single MAC NP that you have---pretty old ones???
They are pretty old. Bad Fairy's from Venomous Villains. I have a BU of this one. Blue India is from Liberty of London. It's the only thing I got from that collection. Things, more like. I got a BU of this too. I was young and stupid. Out of all the wonderful stuff in the collection I go and buy a NP. And a BU

The rest are all from the Nail Trend F/W collection from 2010. There was an orange too but I skipped it. More

It'd better be there or that girl at the counter will have me to answer to!

That's the only creme I got from Sunsationals. Love love love the colour. The application wasn't the best I've seen from ChG (looking at you Avant Garden!

) but the colour more than made up for it. It chipped the next day, but that could also be because I forgot to brush my nails before I applied my base coat. I put on some nail repair oil several hours previously and chances are there was some left on the nail). Hi, welcome back!

I'm curious about the contents of those two packages.... They are pretty old. Bad Fairy's from Venomous Villains. I have a BU of this one. Blue India is from Liberty of London.

Bad fairy is such a lemming of mine! lol I feel like that smiley when I remember I had the chance to buy it! I will post whether it was there or not, she better hope so lol mine hasn't chipped yet but I didn't work very hard last night lmao! I love this color so much, the formula wasnt as bad as some reviews made it out to be. speaking of advent garden I still need to wear fancy pants! and keep calm paint on lol. I'm in my purple phase now tho.... have so many to try! I'm trying to decide what polish to use in my bday! I'm think picture polish amethyst or Zoyas Stevie...

Do you have Accessorize NPs over there? They have a shade called Pink Spice and it's supposed to be a Bad Fairy dupe.

Yeah, some reviews really trashed the Sunsational collection. I haven't got many but I'm pretty happy with the ones I have. Except for the blue jelly. I know jellies aren't meant to be opaque but that sucker's like water. I'm thinking of adding some blue pigment in it. It can't get any worse lol.

Ugh. It looks like the idiots in the next building are going to have (yet another) back yard party. Theý're testing their sound system as I type. o_O. Hell is other people's music.



edit - Hell is also other people's dogs. I happen to live opposite a supermarket and there's a bloke who ties his pesky Jack Russell outside while he shops. He comes several times a week. The friggin mutt barks at 100 mph, non stop. I swear I want to go out and stick a rolled up sock in its gob. At least this time the guy's doing his weekend shopping on a Saturday afternoon. Last week it was 10am on Sunday. Nothing like waking up to a lunatic Jack Russell yapping its head off like it's got a bag of jumping beans up its arse. Inconsiderate tosspot. If you get a dog at least have the decency to train it. Grrr!

That, or a helicopter circling over one's neighborhood since the morning because of some stupid ass protesters who can't protest peacefully and have to go on a rampage whenever they have the chance. Gah. Sometimes it sucks to live in a big city!

All of this! ^^^^

Hell is also when the bloody Giro D'Italia invade your city and all of the streets are closed off because of stupic cyclists......I was not amused at that time, guess that's the price you pay for living so central...

We had the Tour de France once and it was a lot of fun! But then, I didn't have to work that day so I could join the visiting masses and watch the race, too. Long, looooooooong ago!

When I lived in Rotterdam the car race thingy and marathon drove me insane. Lots of roads closed, so getting home was a nightmare. The cars were not so bad, but the marathon was something else alltogether. There was a road I had to cross to get home but the security peeps wouldn't let me because of the latex-clad tossers

Thanks girls!

Thanks, Med. The above crease shade is Romantico. I do recommend the LM Caviar Stick if it's still available, it's an awesomely intense emerald even though it is named 'Turquoise' (?).

Your eye plan is interesting! I have never tried a colourful base like that.


TY, girls!


I love this polish!


Liz, you got all the good ones!

I'm on it!


There's no escape.

Thank you for the wheels! Man, I need to make an Indie list.


Nice! The Bulge is an interesting shade. I thought it would be lighter, but it's kind of coral-pink?


Oh, Buick!

I'm wearing the cutest mani! I hope to take a pic later.

Congrats, Honi! That's sounds like an excellent way to celebrate. The Essies look great, too.

I hope you get the Million Dollar Mermaid, Naughty.

Oh Naughtyp and Buick, I agree on both subjects---I don't want to share someone else's loud music or yippy-yappy little dog. I also don't want you to use my front lawn as your personal dog park when we spend hundreds of dollars per month on a crew to maintain our landscape. Some people are so damned insensitive!
