Oh, such a pity that I gave my Peppermint Patty away a few month ago! With you it would've gotten a better home!

2 of the essie ones are alittle bit darker than the other pale mint colors......i have 10 in my to get lists at Drugstore.com from milani, sally hansen, revlon, covergirl, pop, and orly.

On a completely unrelated note, here's Revlon's answer to DL Cleopatra (well, kind of): http://www.vampyvarnish.com/2012/12/revlon-sparkle-aplenty-nail-enamel-swatches-review#more-35264

Meh. I'd have been all over it had it not been for the small glitter.


Competely unrelated edit - they DCd Belladonna? Eeejits! That was the only shade for which I was planning to break my self imposed lip tar embargo!

Quote: Thank you! I haven't tried Layla Flash black yet I'm going to have to look that one up. Creator is goregous! Here's a swatch on me.. I didn't realize it was so close to a KOH polish that I have. It's def a must have imo.






Hmmm. Between Storm and Creator my vote goes to Creator. It has a certain depth and complexity that Storm lacks.

Layla Flash Black is a linear holo. And a pretty strong one at that. I personally like linear holos better than scattered holos, and Flash Black is a particularly good specimen. You probably won't need it if you have Hits Zeus though (unless, of course, you're a black holo freak).

Have you heard of FNUG polishes ? I think they are very good holographic nail polishes.

Yes I understand. If you search for a website ( French ) you have " Atouts Charme " I think they ship internationally but I don't know if it's allowed from France to the US via airmail, I can ask for you if you want.
Prices are really ok by them, they don't sell OPI anymore ( just Nicole by OPI ), but they have a lot of brands.
It's very late here so I will ask them tomorrow, that is today in the afternoon.

I went to Sally Beauty today to scope out China Glaze polish and completely blanked on what I wanted to see in person. I just stood there for a few minutes staring at all of the colors and got overwhelmed. It's been a really long day. I need to go back with a list. They didn't have the Cirque collection at all. I didn't even see a display. Only a poster for it in the window. I did see the new glitter bits collection. It's not for me.

kimibos, your list is minty fresh. I'm drawn to mint polish too. It's such a pretty and calming color. Very feminine, but not excessively girly.

the cirque display at my sallys was on the floor next to the window, not even near the np section. havent seen the glitter bits ones yet tho. im interested but idk....they always get me in the bottle but most do not look the same on the nail. im going to start being picky now so ill see if i like them swatched.
i love mint np i tried on nomad tonight i have to get it!! i only have a few mint nps.
i got my ulta reward ($6 off vs $3, so i think i need to go find something to buy lol) and i havea 20% extra off a sale item at sephora so im going to hit both stores tommorow. Baller on a bugdet , as my friends always says lol. i cant wait to get paid to get xmas shopping done (2 bros) and then i can budget the rest so i can get all my mac and np goodies!

I have to remember that one.

Thanks! I kept checking the goodbye section, too. I wasn't sure since I didn't see anything. I thought I missed something and I don't think they sent out a notification email either. I think Trick is another discontinued shade. I can still get Butch and Pageant for you if you want a CP, but I don't know for how long. They're still in stock at Beauty.com.

Thank you very much for offering, really sweet of you!

I guess i'll be buying some other shades first tho, i recently got an email from OCC that i qualified for their professional discount I'm thinking of getting Pretty Boy, Queen, Hoochie, Grandma, and Lydia. My Nylon Lip Tar is feeling lonely, nothing i can mix it with lol

And yeah i don't see Trick either anymore, along with Tone and Pennyroyal.

Honestly i have no idea

I thought it was one of their best selling Lip Tars so i really don't understand either.

Lippmann Ray of Light. The indigo blue base looks purple in different lighting. I love how the holographic flakes shift from green to orange/copper.

 

[honey on boost]

Ray of light looks so pretty on you!!

Seconded!

But what happened to your coke nail?

I'm so glad I ordered it. I was going to get Sweet Dreams too but it was already gone (an eBay seller had both polishes listed at a not-so-obscene price and shipped internationally).
