These are all really nice! I love the Ciate - never tried that brand and don't need another one to buy but it's so pretty! The FF is a nice summery colour, shame the flakies were a bit naughty. The Tonic is a nice shade.

Thank you!

I have a couple more manis, these are actually from last week as I only wore one polish this week and didn't take pictures.

First is KBShimmer Maybe Navy, pictures aren't the best as usual, lots of pink flecks not visible.

Next is Nailed It Master of Regeneration. Very hard to photograph due to the shimmer. It was also not as sheer as it looks in the pictures. Very pretty though.

I have no nail related news, I didn't order from HHC (although I was tempted by a couple) and as usual not looking at PPU. Was going to order a couple polishes from FF, but didn't in the end. So yeah, that's my news, hahaha.

I've finally put away my new polishes (only took a month, lol) and I'm down to my last drawer, only have enough space for a handful of polishes. I guess that's an incentive not to buy more, I literally don't have anywhere to put them!

I've decided to stop buying fragrances too, it has taken over from my nail polish obsession, but again lack of space and funds is telling me to be sensible.

I really need to find a new hobby that doesn't take up space and doesn't cost much! I guess there's sports, but... I'm too lazy, lol.

Lovely manis! I've been away...
I just made something very similar to the KBShimmer one! I have been not nail shopping due to my holiday! I must sort out my holiday mani pics soon but I'm trying to catch up with work. I'm happy to have my unique role at work but it means no-one covers for me. I have to take a load more leave in the next month or I'll lose it, can't figure out how to fit it all in!

I ran out of space a very long time ago, I now have polish everywhere! I feel you on shopping based hobbies - I've been enjoying making polish over the last few months, though it's hardly free. Good luck finding something that suits you!

Sorry I've not been around, my life has been... well, the usual. I haven't actually bought any polish lately, although I have a few mani pictures that I need to sort out. Will try to post them tomorrow. Hope all is well with you.

Hey Anita, I'm OK - been stressed, work is mental and I've had my email blocked by Virgin, which has taken over a week to sort out. Then my internet blew out in the storm on Friday, so I've also had to be in-office this week as I can't wfh. I have edited my pics though! It's amazing what you do when the telly, phone and internet don't work...
Life is life I guess, hope things are looking up.
I haven't really been shopping for polish either (especially since the internet went down!). I just now got access to my emails and found my Nailed It! prize polish is being delivered tomorrow - I provided one of the inspiration pics for the FB Group Birthday customs and won a bottle, which she kindly shipped to the UK.
