I agree maybe I got a dud because I was outside yesterday in the sun and it still didnt look like your pic and I ordered the polish from chanel site.i may just send it back thanks for the lovely pictureHmmm :-/ Try taking the bottle outside and looking at it in the sun, if it doesnt look like this there's something wrong with it:
What a shame
I did once through email early last week. Will try once through facebook then and give it another week. Thanks!
very pretty I polished my nails again this time using a white base and taboo actually showed the sparkle a bit more i used tons of clear for shine I like it better now do I think its worth $27 I will have to wear it a bit more to judge that lol.It didn't look that great on me either, this is my photo in direct sunlight. I wish it looked more like it does in the bottle. Still pretty though.
Mrs. P's Nail Potions. Spent some time in Edmonton this summer and actually went to her place and bought a few polishes.
This is ssooo cool. i dont think i could control myself if my town had an indie polish store. im all the time at sallys. Congrats to her for making on the paper!Good news! Llarowe is going to carry Glisten & Glow in a couple of weeks. I've been using the Stuck on Blu base coat for several manis, and I have to say I like it more and more each time I use it. The only thing I don't like about it is that it gets stringy when I apply it, but I can deal with it. I liked the HK Girl top coat from the first use. It's wonderful with holos.
Speaking of base coats, I think I may have pinpointed my yellowing issues. I think it's due to the Butter London Foundation base coat. I don't think it's responsible for staining my nails. However, I don't think it did a good job of protecting my nails from getting stained. Since I've been using the Stuck on Blu base coat, my nails have remained pink as they grow from the base. I can see a distinct line on my nails from where it's stained yellow to where it's pink.
I realized the Butter base coat was the culprit after I did a pedi. I hadn't done a pedi in months and my nails were perfectly fine before hand. After I removed the pedi, my toe nails were clearly stained yellow. Then I noticed how pink my finger nails remained after I stopped using the Butter base coat to test out the Stuck on Blu base coat. A benefit of Stuck on Blu is that it's meant to prevent staining.
I also notice that my nails aren't as dry or peeling as much since I stopped using the OPI drying drops. It's a shame because it worked great at drying my nails quickly. But I think it was just too drying for my nails to handle. Or maybe it was the combination of the drying drops with a quick drying top coat that was too much for my nails? Hmm... I may revisit the drops after my nails recover. I like their progress in the meantime and don't want to do anything to mess them up again.
i have to finish all the base coats i have, i really want to try these. lets see if i can wait for LLa to have them.

I was told the elevator impressed inspectors before I put an offer in but they could have been impressed with it running on original parts LOL I'm not sure. I'd have to ask the building manager... It was grossly hot and humid today and I don't think it broke. I didn't take any chances and took the stairs anyway! And yay! with lots of TLC my nails and fingers are looking MUCH better and I haven't scalded myself with the tap water in the past two days!!(hot is HOTTTTTT here)
Great haul! I really like that second Catrice colour in the bottom pic. I stocked up on Trind nail polish remover and got a BU of my Trind nail repair today, because everything Trind is 50% off at Etos
Nice haul! Well I was going to wait to raise some funds from my eBay listings, but then I noticed that Nail Polish Direct already has the OPI Mariah polishes, so I ended up ordering one of the liquid sand minisets, the blue LS, two of the gold ones and a couple of China Glaze Halloween polishes, as well as an OPI DS polish (blue one). Hmm, that went well, not.
Oh my goodness! I got on a mini vacation to Puerto Rico for the weekend and I'm so many freakin pages behind. You girls are fast
I love all your mani's and hauls! I was trying to comment on each one until I realized it'll take me about an hour lol.
Before I left I was bored at home and started browing Sephora when I noticed a new brand called Jin Soon. Then I saw Alllacqueredup's swatches and had to order at least one to try out the formula. Man am I in love! The color is gorgeous. Now I'll be picking up the rest of the fall collection.
Has anyone tried this brand?
That one is so pretty, it's called 2 Million Dollar Baby. I have a trind nail repair, still unused. :lol:Great haul! I really like that second Catrice colour in the bottom pic.

LOL Corally, you didn't resist but you were right to do so ! I've never tried the Catrice polishes, they look so pretty ! ( very difficult to find here if not impossible ).
