Nail Polish Discussion - Any Brand

[PearlyQueen]

I haven't received any polishes lately, everything's going to Stackry, except for a small Rainbow Connection order I placed on Friday. I hate ordering from her, but she has 2 FF exclusives and I rally wanted one of them (and threw in a couple of other polishes for free postage).

I managed to sell some polishes and make up, and promptly spent the money on more polishes, lol. But I guess it's better than not selling and still spending.

Here are my last few manis. First is Lacquer Lust Zircon with Different Dimension Ursula. The Lacquer Lust was pretty pants, quite boring and didn't dry completely, so ended up with marks. Meh.

Next is Emily de Molly Veiled Flame with Lilypad Lacquer Jelly Baby. The outside pictures were taken during the red sun/yellow sky event on Monday, so it was more purple irl.

I'm trying to use my thermals now the weather is cooler, I don't want them to stop working before I have the chance to wear them. This is Femme Fatale A Fortune Teller's Charm.

My current mani is a 2012 untried, unnamed Primark polish with Illyrian Polish The Upside Down

These are all really nice - Ursula and Veiled Flame stand out as my faves!
I don't remember but I may have Veiled Flame!
Well done on more sales to fund your shopping!

 

[PearlyQueen]

I also have one new mani - Pahlish Good Omens:

This is nice, it also has a really strong pink shimmer which you only get a hint of in this pic, it was the one where it was showing best but IRL it's much more obvious.

Thanks. Veiled Flame is really gorgeous.

Unfortunately I wasn't able to sell as much as I wanted, but it's better than nothing.

Ooh I really like this one. I've been meaning to order it, but never get around to it.

Would you be interested in doing another decant swap? I still have plenty of empty bottles. Pm me if you want to do one!

Here's my tiny RC haul. I'm only willing to buy from her if it's something I can't get elsewhere and will only order as much as I need to qualify for free postage.



My latest manis, first is Colors by Llarowe Giant Giraffes in My Yard with Cupcake Polish Witchery. They were both on my favourites list and they're both pretty, but the Cupcake especially doesn't look as amazing as it looks in the bottle.



Next is Glam Polish Forebode with Lacquester Currant-ly Available. These two were surprisingly similar on the nail. Obviously the Lacquester has the added blue glitters, but in the sunshine, you could hardly see a difference. I loved the Glam more than I thought I would, it's so pretty.



My current mani is also Glam Polish: I Don't Do Fashion, I Am Fashion with Waluigi Lose! Impossible! The blue was on my favourites list and it is very pretty and so vibrant. Love it.



I'm planning on placing an order with Glam Polish today as she's said the UK shipping has been suspended due to medical emergency and also she still has 2 of the Polish Con polishes I wanted as well as The Force Unleashed. I only want 3 or 4 of the new collection plus the blue group exclusives, hopefully they won't sell out quickly.

 

[Anitacska]

Huh, well I've now definitely spent far too much on polish.

Pretty mini haul! Any special reason you've gone off RC?
Love your manis, I must wear my Forebode soon too! I loved I Don't Do Fashion when I wore it too!
I see GP lady had a very premature baby and is away from home with him, so sad. I think it might be a while before the business gets back to normal.

That's a good sized order! Hope you love them when you get them, Glam are usually nice.

EP spoilers. September is Lost My Mind In a Sunrise, October is Cranberry Cosmo. That's another one I already have (Lost My Mind). Ugh.

Yay, I like both, have neither and Cranberry Cosmo was on my wishlist!!!
Finally, this mystery year has thrown up something I'm really happy with.

I like them too, just I already have one of them. Although apparently September is a lot less sheer than LMMIAS. That's a 4 coater. October is said to be a bit more sheer/less pigmented than CC, but I guess you can'y get these to be exactly the same.

I'm still hoping for Ocean Potion and December 2012. But whatever happens I'm stopping with the mysteries after this year.

That's great you got a wishlist item! I probably would skip these if they were a normal release, but I'm finally much happier with these than previous months.

I cannot stand Annette, she is a really weird and unpleasant person. So I'd rather not give her any of my money.

Yeah, it's pretty sad. Hopefully the baby will be okay. I know it's very selfish of me to say this, but I'm quite happy she won't be producing 12-14 polishes every month for a little while.

That's a good sized order! Hope you love them when you get them, Glam are usually nice.

Thanks, I'd saved up! I last ordered about 3 months ago, I think.

 

[Anitacska]

Here are my Halloween manis. First is Tonic Polish Greenglow with Polished for Days Kamaria. The shift in the Tonic was pretty good.



My current one is Glam Polish Pennywise with Lilypad Lacquer Licoriche stamped with EdM Copper and Pink/Orange stamping polishes.

Love your spiderwebs! And Pennywise is much nicer than I thought it would be - lovely manis!

 

[PearlyQueen]

My last manis are:

Pahlish Blood and Rubies


Depend 2032


F.U.N. Lacquer The Art of Sparkle

Did anyone get the new EPs? I forgot the time, not that fussed though - only one that is intriguing and I don't need it!

 

[MRV]

Doesn't Enchanted have cart hold any more? Stuff got sold out while I still had them in my cart. Puff!
Well, money saved again.

Nothing caught my eye.

Not me. I was queuing for a concert with my daughter at 7 pm, and by the time I checked at 7.20, all the new stuff was sold out. Not fussed about it at all though.

Apparently Bigcartel has stopped cart holds. EP claimed they didn't know about this, but some people on Facebook said it was announced by BC a while ago.

Guess one more reason not to buy from EP.

Nothing caught my eye.

No, me neither. Two of the new ones are quite nice, but quite nice is not worth $16 to me.

Blah! Not a chance then! I was going to order only two because that's the max I can do (unless it's monthlies). Not going to pay import taxes. I missed out on the big new release Oct 1st.

On another note, can you recommend rose gold polishes ( that I might have )? I'm going to a grand gala this Saturday, and I have a rose gold clutch (otherwise I'm wearing intense red plum/mulberry).
