Nail Polish Discussion - Any Brand

[Anitacska]

Here are my latest manis. First is W7 Metallic Mars (2012 untried) over black with Lilypad Lacquer Dreams Come True.



Next is FUN Lacquer Eternal Love with FUN Lacquer Eternal Love (H), both over black.



My current mani is Elevation Polish LE: Yeti Has a Bike with El Corazon Kryptonite. I keep having to trim my nails due to side breaks, not happy. I've been taking supplements and using Nailtiques Formula 2, but they haven't helped so far.

In case anyone's interested, the new EP monthlies are for sale right now.

I love all of these! I must try those W7s sometime, I bought all or nearly all of them.
How funny you're wearing Elevation (I have that too - and I think both the FUNs!).

As you know, I'm not doing those any more! Thankfully, considering the overspending I've done.

Thank you! Yes, I'd already picked it out, it was a funny coincidence.

I know, me neither. Just thought someone else might be interested.

I'm trying to be good this month too, at least until the 14th anyway. There are a few LE polishes I want and someone offered to mule from Polish Con and I love the Different Dimension PC polishes, so will ask her for those. But I'm holding out on non urgent purchases.

Edit: Forgot to ask, have you received your Stackry package yet?

 

[Anitacska]

I popped into Primark last weekend and found these two polishes. They're both really pretty and shifty, and only £1.50.



I'm waiting for my Femme Fatale group buy orders to arrive, hopefully later this week. I ordered a good few EdMs as well as Femme Fatales, so really looking forward to that. I'll have lots of stuff in my Stackry box as well by the time it's due to be emptied. I've been very bad.

My recent manis, first up is Illyrian Polish Mad World with Emily de Molly Pending Perfection and some flower decals (made with Mad World). Pretty pleased with that.



Next is Femme Fatale Maddening Whispers with Femme Fatale Mermaid Candy, I love them both, but especially Maddening Whispers, I love her old holos, they were so special.



Dollish Polish The Witching Hour with Femme Fatale Unwoven Light. They're both okay, but not thrilled with either.



This is Bow Polish Alpha Omega, which is a magnetic polish and the first time I've used one for about 4 years! I used the Tonic magnet with it and it was really easy to do. Love it!

Oo, nice to have a mule!
Still waiting for my package...

Good bargain!
Lots of goodies on the way too, that's always a nice feeling.
Love your manis, the magnetic one is stunning.
Mad World is really pretty too, and good decaling!

 

[PearlyQueen]

So here are my last two manis!
Pahlish Blood of the Mountain II:


Illyrian Polish Forever Fairytale:

This looks more like an opal than any other polish I've ever worn - but it's nothing like MeiMei's pictures of it! I emailed her to ask if she'd used purple undies on hers, but it's just that shiftiness apparently. I still love it though, so no complaints!

 

[Anitacska]

Oo, nice to have a mule!
Still waiting for my package...

Oh no, how come?

Yes, she was really kind to offer. I was going to order the Different Dimensions if there were any leftovers anyway, but this is much better. I asked for 6, June 2018 and KBShimmer Hard to Empress, purple UP polish with blue flakies.

Good bargain!

Thank you! I really liked the magnetic, it was so cool irl as the line moved around. Mad World is one of my favourite ever polishes.

Pretty! I see what you mean about the Illyrian though, I looked on MeiMei's website and it looks very different. This actually reminds me of Arco Iris, the unreleased Polish Pickup shade (that's coming back next Friday as Starburst).

 

[Anitacska]

Annoyingly the Femme Fatale group buy hasn't arrived yet, they're taking their sweet time with it. So the only polish I received today was Tonic Mulled Wine and Mistletoe that I got from a destash.



Hopefully I'll receive more things next week. Still 2 more weeks left of my Stackry free period.

 

[Anitacska]

Here are a few of my latest manis, first up is Tonic Huckleberry Sparkle with Picture Polish Frosting. The tiny blue glitters in the Tonic are so gorgeous!



Next is Glam Polish The Shining with Fair Maiden Luck Dragon



This is Cupcake Polish Leaf Me Alone with Lilypad Lacquer Diamond in the Rough (mostly covered up with the decals made with the Cupcake and Zoya Tanzy (2012 untried))



My current mani is Glam Polish Kissed by Fire with Glam Polish You Are Our Only Hope Frank

Welcome to the thread! That pink polish is very pretty.

EP May June spoilers in case anyone's interested. May is pretty, I like it. I'm not sad I missed out on it though. I'm sure I have similar polishes.

Yawn. (Thanks for sharing! It's nice to see what we all didn't miss out on.)

I do like May 2018. I wonder how similar it is to May 2013?

In the UK EPs don't sell well, so I may pick it up if I see it for sale somewhere, but I won't be hunting it down. Definitely not worth $16+.

Yes, I agree. Pretty, but nothing mind-blowing and not worth the full price.
