Nail Polish Discussion - Any Brand

[Anitacska]

I was sure you'd have that Lilypad!
Glad I didn't buy those EP mysteries, I don't especially like either of them.

It appears I don't!

I'm quite pleased with these, I found them on Facebook. £17 posted for the two. Magic Mirror is especially nice!



I also received my Femme Fatale bi-monthly haul.

 

[Anitacska]

My Stackry delivery is due early next week. Yay! I'm also expecting a package from Girly Bits soon. Ordered from Glam Polish through the UK group, but I guess those won't come for a while yet.

Here are my latest manis. First is Miss Sporty Metal Flip 030 with NYX Dreamy Glitter. A good example of why I don't bother with buying non-indie polishes nowadays. Meh.



That said, my following mani was pretty nice. This is OPI Tease-y Does It (2012 untried) with Glam Polish Eternity Dragon.



Next up is Tonic Polish Taffeta with Tonic Polish Butterfly Leaf



This is Illyrian Polish Blue Moon with Illyrian Polish Believe in the Unicorn. Really liked them.



Emily de Molly Future Royal? Nice and bright, really liked it.



Finally, my current mani, Glam Polish Batch #20 with Polished for Days Dear Santa



No decals this week, have been too busy / tired to bother.

I am going to get a manicure in the next week or so. Is Shellac worth the cost? I am a mom of 3 so these fingernails see a lot of water and dirt!

No idea, sorry.

Wow, congrats on the EP bargain, I always wanted Magic Mirror.
Pretty FFs too.

Very nice, I love the Tonics and Eternity Dragon!

Sorry, I haven't a clue. I had a gel one once, it lasted forever but I don't go for much water and dirt!

This week I'm wearing Lilypad Lacquer Life on the Dark Side:

Thanks. I didn't realise MM had flakies in it, I like it a lot!

Thank you!

Ooh pretty! I nearly said it's another one I don't own, but apparently I do.

 

[Anitacska]

My hauls this week. First one is from Girly Bits, the rest from Stackry.



Pretty pleased with everything, although admittedly the Enchanteds are a bit dull.

Nice hauls! I'm especially taken with the Tonics, they're pretty in the bottle. Are those the multichrome magnetic ones?
Gutted to hear the ESs are dull, mine are still in the US for now.

Thanks. Yes, mostly. The first one is UP magnetic, the second is multichrome magnetic and then 3 holo magnetics. The last 2 are Necromantic, that I won in a contest, and Draccus from the FTLOP box.

They're just holos. Also Surf Bunny looks a lot more blue than turquoise irl. Glad they didn't cost a lot at least.

Here are my recent manis. First is China Glaze Rare & Radiant (2012 untried) with Indigo Bananas Color of the Fire (holo) over black.



Next is Pahlish The Final Countdown with Different Dimension Alpha



My current mani is Elevation Polish The Sea Was Red with Femme Fatale Shadow Radiance. I like the Elevation, but not the FF. Also I did a terrible job of fixing up two side breaks, so it looks doubley awful.

These are nice. I especially like the China Glaze (I have it unworn of course!) - the Elevation is one I have worn, and thought very pretty too. The FF is fine!

 

[PearlyQueen]

My latest mani is Glam Polish - If the Apocalypse Comes, Beep Me:

Thank you. The FF just looked a bit dull. I think I will try to sell it.

Pretty! I don't have this one (I think it's from the Buffy collection?)

No point in polishes you don't like!
Yes, the Glam's a Buffy one, I really like that collection (I think I got all of them!).

 

[Anitacska]

Here are my most recent manis. First is CrowsToes Damned if You Do (linear holo) with CrowsToes Murder in the 2nd. I ended up cutting down the nails with the side breaks, couldn't be bothered to keep fixing them.



Next is Lilypad Lacquer Morning Glory with Orly Ultraviolet. Very bright and obviously freaked out my camera.



This one is Bear Pawlish Murky Waters with Ever After Month of June



My current mani is Lilypad Lacquer Fantasia



I also did a new pedicure, but I haven't got around to taking pictures yet

 

[Anitacska]

And here's my pedi, Femme Fatale Ruby Hare. It's a gorgeous polish, although the picture isn't really colour accurate.

 

[Anitacska]

My new Glams have arrived! I really like them. With these I am now past the 400 mark!



I like a few from the new collection too, but not the 4 HP ones. Is it just me, or HP is now very old news? Anyway, I won't be ordering any this time as I spent an obscene amount on polish in May, so I need to be very good in June.
