so summery!
Looks like Lancôme is have a cool spring. Nice mani!
I quite like the newer polishes Essence is coming out with. Good alternative to the pricier brands when you just want to try out a new trend! And this one's very nice though maybe I'm not the best judge because I love sand nps.
Oooooh, love that colour! So summery! I've to break out my spring polishes soon!
I like Ricochet! We hadn't had a real winter either. It was very odd - especially with all the news from the horrible winter the US and Canada had/has. I'd had liked one week of snow or so - it snowed only once here and the temperature never really dropped below zero. I didn't wear nearly all of my heavy winter clothes.Our winter never started really. It lasted about 2 weeks (instead of 6 months), and now it's either kind of springy (like April) or some aweful wet mess like today. Hope you're feeling better already! Lovely manis! That teal colour is awesome . I got the 8 I was aiming to plus one older one (all except one in yellow/green/teal) and one Hare. Anitascka! Hope you'll have a nice time in Stockholm! I'm at you across the Gulf. I have to try stamping (in general) and with a holo, it looks nice. Coincidentally, I'm wearing a holo - EdM Ricochet. I had to get it - besides it's an EdM holo - the word ricochet sound kind of odd to me.
It's very weird. I also saw something about a collab with Ford this morning?!?! I'm still waiting for my first Llarowe order... Sigh. Anitacska, I'm hoping you're having lots of fun in Stockholm! I always love your haul pics - sometimes looking at pics of pretty polishes can be really uplifting!Have you heard about the OPI Coca Cola Collection (June) yet? Weird. I suppose the regular Coke is going to be a red, but what about the other drinks/colours? They are also making a peelable BC.
No doubt my mailman thinks I only wear robes LOL as soon as I'm home I put my PJs back onHave you heard about the OPI Coca Cola Collection (June) yet? Weird. I suppose the regular Coke is going to be a red, but what about the other drinks/colours?

I'm curious to see what they'll do with Coke.
I wonder how their peel off base coat will be, the NPB one peeled a little fast, hopefully there will be lots of reviews when it comes out.
It's the 50th Anniversary of the Ford Mustang, now I'm expecting a 'highland green' polish lol (the colour of the Mustang in Bullitt w/ Steve McQueen)Anitacska, I'm hoping you're having lots of fun in Stockholm!

Now I'm all nostalgic and want to paint my nails in the colour of my family's first car (1981 Ford LTD S)- it had the strangest paint I have ever seen on a production car lol I think I'll try to replicate it with my next mani.
After I take off this PP Solar Flare mani - pics when the sun comes out!

I made a few polishes last night and wanted to share! First one is a khaki camouflage inspired one, second one is teal with tiny green hexes and holo glitters. The gold one I'm still wearing is a P2 one with a Satin finish.
Yes, I think soI guess we got our winter and your winter too!and I am feeling better, thanks!
Nice mani! Ricochet seems like an appropriate name for a gunmetal holo

Ford's 'Lime Gold' was/is very Chanel Peridot!Thanks, Anneri! We actually had a few very cold weeks (between -10-20C, over -40C up North), but no show to speak of.
Yay, complaning about things always makes them happen! Nice haul and lovely frankens. The green's my favorite.
Yes, I think so! Thanks! Ricochet was a very nice grey holo because it has a golden cast.
Interesting that Ford thing. Well, cars have paint on them, too, so maybe we'll get classic car paints on our nails!
I got my PP order yestereday, too! I think I'm going to put on one of them tomorrow.
I have a robe that I wear only to open the door. I would not feel comfortable on PJs only.

So I ordered two stamping plates and a stamp&scraper from moYou, and tried to stamp yesterday. I just could not make it work!I got nothing from the plate to the stamp. Maybe I was just too slow or the half a dozen polishes I tried just did not work. Today I bought a white Konad and try again tonight.
Meanwhile here's my unstamped mani: DG For Audrey and LSL Mint To Be
Nice mani! Could it be that you weren't quick enough with transferring the polish? You have to do it immediately, otherwise it dries too much. Or maybe you scraped off too much? Could be that the plates aren't very good, there was a Konad pattern I could barely stamp. Keep trying, I'm sure you'll succeed.Thanks, Anneri!

:wback: Medgal! Nice to see you! So it really didn't get sunny but mani pics anyway! Picture Polish Solar Flare over Cult Nails Nevermore:hello2: [COLOR=0000FF]Yay for all the pretty nail porn that I missed so much----and homemade, no less! JUST BEAUTIFUL! I have nothing to contribute at this time but I'm so enjoying all the gorgeous manis. I haven't hauled any NP since the Spring Dior collection and my nails are a mess right now---still wearing the remnants of my last mani w/Tom Ford's Vapor. It actually lasted 5 days before i started to see a tiny bit of chipping at the tips. I solemnly swear to clean up my nail-act and do you all 'nail' proud.[/COLOR] :stars:
Thank you for the tip! It worked!!!MRV, try buffing the stamper very gently with a nail file. Sometimes the plastic just can't absorb the polish properly.
Thanks! Awesome car!
Thanks and welcome home! Nice to hear you had a good time in Sweden. And talking about salmiakki - I think I need a dose, too! I think the main problem was the stamp. It was just too smooth and shiny to pick up an image. Plus not all of the polishes seem to work.Love Ricochet. I never picked it up, but it is very nice on you. Nice frankens and cool haul. What's that Different Dimension polish? Feel like I need it. Nice mani! Could it be that you weren't quick enough with transferring the polish? You have to do it immediately, otherwise it dries too much. Or maybe you scraped off too much? Could be that the plates aren't very good, there was a Konad pattern I could barely stamp.

You made it! Welcome home . BTW I passed an accessory shop today that sells YOLO stuff. That makes me think of you!:hello2: [COLOR=0000FF]Yay for all the pretty nail porn that I missed so much----and homemade, no less! JUST BEAUTIFUL!

I think I will get some more stamping polishes, clearly not all regular polishes work for stamping.

I love this polish so much! Also the non-holo version.It's Today was a Fairy Tale. It's so unbelievably girly, completely not what I'm normally going for and I love it. Good to hear you had some fun. Aaaaah, Salmiakki! Makes my wouth water. Love them but a lot of people around here abhor liquorice so it's quite hard to get.
MED!!!!

Thanks. I might see about getting it, it's OOS on Llarowe, but I'm sure there will be a restock sometime soon.
Nice! What EPs are they?
