I only have one aswell, E.L.F White (It sucks..). I NEED something better :p Gonna google the Barry M one and see. Oh also, I promised pics of my nail "racks" so here they are :)
Love the racks! I only have the sephora formula x in white (streaky and quite thick) and a Kiko one (thin and needs about three coats for coverage). I heard good things about essie blanc though!

Ive heard good things about both the Essie and OPI one but I was wondering if they were as good as people say, I'd have to order them so it would suck if i was dissapointed :p Essie and OPI is so freaking expensive here in Denmark. Twice what I pay for it on ebay so I rather wait a little than pay too much for NP in stores.

Thanks, minty! Lovely mani! You have great cremes.


Do you know when that is coming?


I actually like it. Reminds me of Cirque Cypress, an awesome copper holo. I got them both. Otherwise I've been quite good, too. Ordered a few CG/OPI/Orlys/P&Js on payday, and got two discounted Chanels this week.

That is a lovely polish! Love teal and gold. Looks like once again something I quoted dropped out, but that EdM Split Personality really is a lovely polish, too. Sooo glowy!


I have one polish from them. Got it from Mei Mei I think. Buick has several of them. Swatches on her wheels I you want to search for them.


Thanks, Fuzzy! Take it easy with the cleaning! (You will see tomorrow my latest mani and what cleaning did to my nails - not good...

Or she has made a bad batch!

Thank you, Anneri! And thank you for the info. Nice mani. Reminds me of the Confettis.

Salut, Dominique! Nice hauls!
Well, I'll be interested to see what January 2014 looks like. I might be kicking myself, but never mind. Tbh, I'm over EP, I think she's got too big for her own good. I don't know....

Mei Mei said on Facebook that the EP restock was estimated after 7th February.

My back was feeling better this morning and then my Mom drove me to the grocery store... she drove over a curb she didn't see on the passenger side and when the car dropped - oooof! Focuses don't have the suspension for that... and neither do I!

Cleaning is hard on the nails! I had my hands in to much detergent cleaning for house selling last year and then I changed the bedding and one of my nails got all folded up on the tip- I had to cut it off because it wouldn't go back into place like usual!



Oh! also, white polish Cult Nails Tempest, so opaque!

Does anyone have a suggestion for a good white nailpolish? Preferably one that covers in 2 coats and dries down quickly.
Zoya purity and opi alpine snow are my go to whites.
I only have one aswell, E.L.F White (It sucks..). I NEED something better :p Gonna google the Barry M one and see. Oh also, I promised pics of my nail "racks" so here they are :)
I am so in love with those racks! I can't wait to move into a larger place so I can do this.

I ordered both ep's today plus the mini nail file. I have all the months so far that ive been collecting plus a few earlier ones ( from swap groups) , so I wanted to complete 2013 at least. If Jan is nice I will keep buying them , but if I don't like it I dunno if I will keep getting them...ok ya I will if they are pre orders. I kinda like the idea of a "surprise" every month and in the swap groups the monthlies are the ones that are some of the hardest to find and have the most inflated prices ( which im totally guilty of buying)!! if I don't like jan I will just give it to my cousin who had her bday last weekend ( I already got her the OPI Gwen Stefani colors she wanted) and she wants an enchanted so bad, and doesn't have one so I can give it to her or swap it, some girls missed the preorder. Her sister ordered jan today too, she doesn't have any ep's either. I got my lucky 47th EP , Ocean Potion on Friday! I wanted to order the Valentines colors from Smitten, but they were launched at the same time as enchanted. And I didn't count on the nail file lol but I need an extra one =) gonna keep it in my purse for when I paint my nails at work, so I may have orderd the oink one called Be Mine. but I already have CBL Its shocking, Holo Hussy ( Claudia) said she would compare them for me when she gets her order. I only have one Smitten, What Sorcery is this? its sooo pretty but I haven't worn it yet. Some majorly fucked up news is, I dropped my new phone and the glass shattered on it, even worse than the one it just replaced! ughhh so sick of smartphones, why do they have to be made of glass?!! lol there goes 200 bucks I coulda spent on some more polish! haha. No I really need to spend money on some other things. Like, some new Tiffanys sunglasses lol. and a new handbag, and a haircut, car wash,and ya some new polishes lol and some more lipsticks! maybe we need to have our own little low buy polish thread lol. I want a whole bunch from ILNP, but I cant get them all. I have all the Enchanted duochromes , and they are my fav. All the duochromes seem the same to me, its like the same polish in a different bottle. I do want Nostalgia still tho, that is not like any of the Ep's. Walrus is gorgous, I got it cuz kimibos swatches, wasn't ever on my radar until then. I am not doing well again in school all I wanna do is look at nail polish and makeup lol . Fudge!! I had to skip a box indies feb but I really wanted it. I also skipped the cbl super bowl colors. I liked the green one but I didn't want the other one. Plus leah ann posted a pic before of a neon green holo that's gonna be in the Spring collection. ILNP said she was gonna have pre orders on valentines day 2-14-14. the only white I have is Sally Hansen White On, and it covered in two coats for me. I did a rough estimate of my untried, its about 420. and my used drawers have about the same amount! so I think Im less than 1000, which is good lol . oh ya I want some elevations too, just a couple hakaela ( purple wine holo) and Arabian sea 2 ( llarowe exclusive). I really like the new bright green in both OCC and Deborah Lippmann collections. They are on Vampy Varnishes site, I might have to get both of those! the other DL's in the spring line are pretty and I would buy them if I was super rich but I really cant buy so many it sux.

Im not gonna worry about this one. I have all the colors except 4 ( the two glitters, Secret Sauce and All love Garden). I do want secret sauce but ill just wait and buy it off someone lol , and olive garden used to be my fav restaurant but im not THAT into that shade of green. I think she is doing better on her restocks, I hope she always does pre order now!

At least we can now get them if we want to. Or hope so.

Thank you for the info.

Sorry to hear about your phone. Hope it's not that expensive to fix it. 47?

Looks like I skipped the Super Bowl colours, too. I just hate these emergency releases, I'm not checking out their FB all the time, especially if I'm asleep. I want those two Elevations, too. The name is actually Haleakala which is funny to me as 'haalea kala' means lukewarm fish.
lol.gif
Love those spring DLs, too. I'm not sure I can get them all either because the local distributor is closing down.

Ok, new mani with Zoya Dream and Mosheen accents (Mosheen is almost invisible in the pic) and the depressing stubs.

Seriously?!? I'm not ordering it then. I'm sorry, but I'm not spending $25 with shipping on a polish I don't even know what it looks like. Maybe she hasn't got an idea yet, but wanted to release something, so she's calling it a mystery.
lol.gif



Serves you right, lol! I never go crazy with the cleaning.
girlhaha.gif
I don't blame you. That's a lot to be risky if you want to know what you're getting beforehand. I think all of the monthly polishes are going to be a surprise if I'm reading the description correctly.

I have Zoya Purity and Butter London Cotton Buds as my white opaque cremes, but haven't worn them yet to comment on their application. I also have Chanel Eastern Light, but I think it was streaky.

Pretty! I had to cut my nails, too. I broke one putting a key on a keychain. I saw the new spring Lippmanns. Very pretty. I may pick up a few, but not anytime soon. The ILNP restock is going to be in February.

Sorry to hear about your troubles. I'm sure things are going to get better. I so agree with you about the duochromes/multichromes. Too many of them are basically the same. I wish there would be more variety with the shifts.

Honi, I also love the racks, but what I love the most is the cake stand with the perfume bottles, so cute!

MRV, lovely mani!

CC, yes, I saw that this year is going to be the year of mysteries. It may be the year of me not buying any EP then!

Here's my mani, KBShimmer Vicious Circles. It's not as nice as I thought it would be, it looked prettier in the bottle.

Scorch by Illamasqua, or My Boyfriends scales walls by OPI. MBSW is a very slightly off white while Scorch is true white.

Beautiful manis as always !

My recent hauls include Dior Porcelaine and Bloom, Chanel Tapage and Charivari, OPI Gwen Stefani the red one and the semi-matte black one. I also purchased Riri Hearts Riri Woo, I love it such a true Hollywood red.
Those are some good ones! I got both the red gwen Stefani and riri woo , gonna use them soon for my valentines day manis =)

That's a pretty color.

I know what you mean about the mind tricks. Every time I get the urge to splurge, I remind myself of the other things I want to do with the money. "If I buy this now, I can't do that later. So do I really want it right now?" It helps because I want to do more than buy polish and makeup all year.
I want to do more then buy makup and polish all year too but im a beauty addict lol
and if I do save money it will just be spent on other things, no vacations for me =(
