Thank you. I usually do two coats too. Once before I just did one coat, but I tend to do my nails in the evening, and when I went out in daylight it was obvious I actually needed two coat, oops! But this time it was so obvious one was enough, I didn't waste time doing another. Except as I say where I'd messed a couple of nails up and had some drag marks. I honestly can't tell the difference between the nails with one and two coats. It doesn't seem to have affected the staying power either. 

Lovely manis jennyap and honey on boost!

I honestly think that one of these days someone at customs is going to wonder what the heck dappen dishes are and we're all going to be doomed! 

I got the A-England shipping notice for my 2nd order. Can't wait for all of my polishes to get here.

I normally do two coats as well. That's what I did when I wore Saint George, but two coats seemed like it was too much for A-England's formula. Bubbles started to appear on my mani.

Great haul, Corally. I've been neglecting my China Glaze purchases. I need to get together my list.

Again a decent haul lol ! I also ordered 3 from the China Glaze Avant garden Collection, the rosy/red ones in fact but " Passion for Petals " was not available.  A micro haul but...

The Dance of Colour !

I think I have info about Tutu. I ordered mine directly from a Dior boutique via Honey's SA, but I think it's going to be exclusive to Neiman Marcus. That may be why you can't find it at other department stores. I stumbled upon it while looking up more Dior colors to add to my list.

Are you going to get the Butter London Olympic set now that you found a Nordstrom Rack near you? Come on, join the club!

It's awfully pretty too!!

Feeling PINK   Estee Lauder's Narcissist

Shame on me! I can't place my combined Zoya-OPI-ChG-etc. order  from my usual seller because I don't have 10 bottles on my wishlist yet! 10 bottles = free shipping. At least it used to be that way before the increase in USPS international shipping fees. Maybe I should e-mail them first and check.

Anyway, here's what I have on my list so far:

1. Zoya Julie

2. Zoya GieGie (or GeiGei or whatever it's called)

3. Zoya Piaf (can't do yellow cremes but maybe this will work)

4. Zoya Aurora

5. OPI Polka.com (I said I was going to skip this collection alltogether. Well, I lied )

6. ChG Budding Romance

7. ChG Fancy Pants

I want Orly High on Hope and Peaceful Opposition but the collection isn't out for a month or so. I also love Nicole OPI Still Into Pink (hawt pink shimmer baby! ), which is one of their new shades for 2013 but I'm not sure if my seller has them yet. Plus, they're a bit on the expensive side ($13.50 as opposed to the $8 of the regular OPIs )

Gah! Maybe I should get some jellies to use with my glitters and make jelly sandwiches. Zoya Paloma, Katherine and Frida look nice. OPI My Pointe Exactly would also work. 

What to do? What to do?

Check!  Then have a haul (10 bot'ls) knowing you did what you could re: Free shipping

I don't think I'll ever catch up to half the colors you all are hunting down. except for some Holographic colors.   I'm just trying to commit to sitting down and putting polish on.  LOL

LOL  My daughter recently noted that my makeup and nail polish in particular are my crayola crayons...and she's correct.  Love the colors...can't get enough.  I'm trying to go beyond my penchant for more conservative hues in both areas, but I'm experimenting beyond my comfort zone.

That is pretty lame! Will you be making little labels?
