Nail Polish Discussion Any Brand- MAC, OPI, China Glaze, Essie, Illamasqua, Butter London, Orly.... - Page 71

With cases like this around it's hard not to get an iPhone!

I'm tempted to place an order but I first need to decide if I'm going to get the iPhone in white or black. I thought the enabling on this thread was limited to NPs. And other cosmetics, at a stretch. But smartphones?!?! We're excelling ourselves!

I still don't have any Essies or Diors yet, but I'm working on it. Lol, can I count OPI if I only have one?

I didn't realize so many people were hanging out in this thread! 

When it comes to nail polish, I'm a big fan of China Glaze, now even more than ever - they've really been stepping it up and doing much more rich and unusual colors since last year in particular. Really giving the high end brands a run for their money. 

Anyhow I'm all excited because I just found out about their summer collection that features neon jellies!!! Those are going to be ridiculous.

I'm going to wind up getting the sets, because there are literally only 2 colors in the whole thing I'm not crazy about. 

I can't wait for the holographic collection either!

I'm sure a bunch of you bought plenty from On Safari and New Bohemian. Which ones did you wear the most? For me, it was a tie between Man Hunt (the rich blue from Safari) and Deviantly Daring (the blue/emerald from Boho), followed by Elephant Walk, and I also had Adventure Red-y on a lot more than expected. I kept wanting to wear Desert Sun, but usually grabbed something else because I always wanted LOUDER!

    hun, it felt apart because the zoya remover is PURE ACETONE + GLYCERIN, and some dye plus lavender fragance. there is nothing wrong with using acetone. 

    i dont know why soo many people say its not acetone and natural. if you read the ingredients they write 2-propanone which is acetone, just to make people think its natural i guess. also water to mix the glycerin in, which is what moisturizes the nail. 

by the way i recommend you the non acetone remover from sallys i like it alot. it removes polish ok. 

Sounds like a blast! 

I'm slightly disappointed about the lack of airbourne plastic cups though. Surely they are the life and soul of any social gathering?

I have no idea if we have events here. I'll ask the peeps at the counter when I go to Rotterdam on Friday. I don't think counters do events though. It's probably stores only. Whatever, I'll ask anyway 

Of course it counts lol ( 1 opi). Of the ones you still want i have : Slapper, Trout POut, Knackered, Disco Biscuit, Fairy Lights, Henley Regatta,  Spring colors (Fiver, Fruit Machine, Kerfluffle, ANd Molly Coddles).

I want the olympic set, Jasper,HRH< Brawens Feather, Macbeth and Tart with heart.
No essies?! =0 better get on that lol. na jk they have a lot of great colors in the perm line

I most certainly will!

I got the rest of my nail sticks today! I'm going to start swatching the rest of my collection tomorrow.

Just reveiced my A England order!

St George, Dragon, Princess Sabra, and She Walks in Beauty!
 

Isn't that great?! I want one!

You know what, I actually had my Iphone case for weeks before I got the phone!

I'm not judging, that's what I'm sayin.

My second A England order arrived - Dragon and Holy Grail

I'm thinking of doing a kind of ombre skittles mani using the 5 holo polishes I have now - Princess Sabra, Dragon, Saint George, Tristam and Bridal Veil. Mainly because I can't decide which one to try first 

Yeah! YOLO4EVA!!! 

Sounds great!

Need pics or it never happened 

Group hug!

In other news, my OPIs arrived finally. Already did a mani with one of the liquid sands - strange but fun and different.

Weird! It dries the hell outta my nails lol

I do that all the time! Except for the iphone 5 there were no phone cases out for a while.

I most certainly will!

Oh I love it.  How on earth did you find that?  I'm getting one for my iPhone. I have a boring clear cover.  My hubby will die--he already thinks I've gone of the way deep end--not just the deep end, but the way deep end.

I saw these videos for removing glitter nail polish. The first one does remind me of Freddy Krueger like Buick said.

Here's another video that uses little nail soak containers instead of foil.

I'm not sure about using pure acetone, though. I don't think my nails could handle it.

Yes it is! Sweet Dreams is still an untried for me, though. I like your ring too.

     im still waiting for the a-englands  but im lovinggg moddly coddled from BL. itss soo unique and pretty 

      nice pink but i like the ring more!! I HK

I got an iphone just so i can get the Juicy Couture cases and the Victorias secret PINK ones lol. My brother was like " you are NOT getting a phone just for the cases?!? i told him uh ya....lol i am! i have around 10.

LOL   I don't know which one to get!    I just stared at the photo for ten minutes.  I have a white iPhone 5.  The problem is they only have a picture of what appears to be a black iPhone right?  I got the white phone because I knew it would be easier to see it in my purse AKA the black hole/bottomless pit!

DL Sweet Dreams. I'm so glad I bought this colour! 

I know the flakies aren't really visible in this pic so you'll have to believe me when I say they're shiny, squishy and drop dead gorgeous!

That Chanel Dragon iPhone case makes me want to get an iPhone, too. Speaking of Chanel, I received my polishes yesterday and today. I didn't think I would like Gold Fingers at all. I thought it would be too yellow for my skin tone and wouldn't look right. I was so wrong. It's a very pretty sheer gold. I still had on my messed up Lady Muck mani and layered Gold Fingers over it. It made me think of Versailles. I'm going to do a real manicure with that combination soon. Inattendu and Quartz are also colors I thought I wouldn't like. Quartz is like a nude color on me but with something special. I think it's because of the shimmer in it. I was expecting Inattendu to be an ugly beige that would clash with my skin tone, but it's really a pretty peach. Beige Petal is basically a clear polish, but I knew that when I purchased it.

Has anyone in the US received their A-England orders yet? I know the shipping will be longer and that Adina is also behind because of the surge during the sale. I'm just trying to judge how much longer the wait will be. I'm so impatient and excited for these polishes!

I enjoyed wearing SD more than I though I would. It really is a gorgeous colour . I have a feeling it will look even better on darker skin tones.

Ah, HK . I'm fully aware it's rather ridiculous of me to wear HK jewellery at my age but who cares? I went to a HK exhibition last year. It was brilliant!

You know, I'm so relieved that I'm not the only one. I don't need a smartphone at all (my old faithful Nokia is still going strong) and I very rarely get the urge to buy one but that NP case is just too much! 

You sure you're not talking about my purse? The white phone's definitely a good idea. I'll bear that in mind when/if I go phone shopping 

So pretty! :slowly opens up HSN.com to order it:

  I was a tad skeptical initially because I thought it would get dirty from handling and makeup...not so.  I use an earpiece and never hold it against my face/ear.

Just switched my manicure from Zoya Cynthia to Essence Chic Reloaded (gorgeous underrated shade!) and Revlon Steel Her Heart (DC) as an accent. I love this great dark grey, blue, multichrome manicure I've got going on.

My wait is partially over--the last three of my Butter London Sweetie Shop collection arrived today.  Makes me long for spring even more--especially since it's going down to 5 degrees tonight.  May the pastels warm me!!   

VC, I would love to see your multichrome manicure!!!!
