Thanks! :heart2: And yep, all the polishes. :nods: It's so weird though because last year when Catrice came with new colours I was like: Naah those are not that pretty, I can resist them. And so I have, untill now.. because they are SO PRETTY. :crazy: Btw 7 polishes are from the NEONaturals collection (the last 7 on the picture), those were even cheaper.. only €1. :cheer:
Well, just gorgeous ! Catrice is cruelty-free I think ? We do have a website in France but there are few nail polishes available. Your haul is:pompom:
I'm not entirely sure but I think so. :nods:

They look so pretty. Great haul. By the way, buying the same NP twice just means you really, really like it!!

Awesome haul, Corally!

Unfortunately we don't have Catrice here, or Essence, or much else for that matter. We only have a limited amount of drug store brands (less than 10?), and then there's the HE brands (Dior, Chanel, EL, YSL, Shiseido etc, but you can only dream about Nars, Shu, Bobbi, D&G, TF, and even Armani which is in one place only). From NP brands we only have Orly, OPI, Mavala, Trind, and now Essie (that came last year only (!) and is now everywhere, but who's going to pay 14.90 euros for a bottle?? Nope, not me.) One shop used to sell some CGs, but I don't see them any more, and Sally Hansen is also sold in one store but that's about it. It's just

Nowt interesting in the Catrice stand when I dropped by Kruidvat this morning. Weird. You'd think the promo would be in all stores. I couldn't walk to the other one because of the snow. Not that there's anything I need. But I'll probably find something to buy when/if the promo begins here too
lol.gif


MRV - Essie is super expensive here too. As is OPI. I have no idea if any shops (except online ones, obv) stock Orly or ChG. And quite frankly I don't give a damn. I have my own, much cheaper sources

Haha! Me too! (Although they are getting more expensive, with DL and all). Thank you for the offer! I think I have to restrain myself from venturing into new brands atm because I have just fixed my eye to indieeeesss!

BTW OPI is even more expensive here than Essie. And can you belive that the Orly glitters are 19.90!?

Does anyone even buy them? Jeez!
I can get 10 bottles of OPI/Essie/Zoya for USD80, free shipping. All the way from sunny Hawaii!

I read your note to my husband and explained that you articulated exactly what I'm feeling and demonstrated so clearly how things can escalate quite quickly. He said he can get me meds for that! I believe beautiful things happen during these late-night ponderings!!!

I think I may need some of those meds.

It looks gorgeous on you!

Koh have some very interesting shades but they are super expensive. I like the little boxes you get with the polishes too.

of course I had to go look up ur new Chanel's I love Mica rose!! such a pretty pink

This is the tiniest nudge that I needed and I took advantage to the nth degree. Last night, I was gifted the following order.


  • U - Guinevere, Ascalon, Iseult
  • T - And The Moonbeams..., Camelot
  • K - Princess Sabra, Tess D'Urbervilles
  • Lady of the Lake
Then I got an email from Neiman's in the wee hours of the morning saying that the Chanel Imperial I ordered was cancelled.

They didn't have it in stock to fulfill. I wasn't worried about it getting cancelled since my last order with Diabolic went through, but I should've waited to make sure that it shipped before getting excited. After my initial disappointment, I did the only thing I could think of: order more nail polish! I now had about $30 of reclaimed money since Imperial was cancelled. The only logical thing to do was to place another A-England order.


  • O - Saint George, Excalibur, Tristam
  • Avalon
  • Holy Grail LE - I wanted it before it was gone.

I'm hoping to exchange Saint George for Galahad since I previously ordered Saint George in my very first order. MAC has programmed me to snatch up LE items before they disappear, so I also wanted to get the old Holy Grail before it's gone. I'll get the new version later. No regrets! I checked the website just now and the THANKYOU sale is over. I placed three orders since the promotion began and hauled a total of 19 polishes. I think I managed to get all of their purple and green colors. I'm done [with A-England] until the next sale.

YOLO !

My Zoyas were also delivered yesterday. They arrived a day early. I wasn't wowed by them, but I'm still happy I got them. They're all very pretty colors. I swatched them after removing my mani with my newly delivered bottle of Remove+. There wasn't enough remover left in my old bottle to finish the job. (Walking around with partially removed nail polish is not a good look.) I really like Wednesday, and Zuza reminds me of a turquoise Victoriana.

I'm glad that Kara is different from my other corals. Neeka is a nice dusty eggplant purple, but it's not metallic like it's listed on the website. It's really a shimmer polish. Purity makes me feel like I'm wearing White Out on my nails. It's stark white. I got it mainly to pair with glitter polishes, so it should work well for that purpose. I'm putting together my next Zoya wishlist. I still need Neely! But I'm not going to pull the trigger on it until February or March.

Oh dear. Another gorgeous mani and another new polish brand. I looked up Koh and found the website to order. The polish appears to cost about $20 USD and they ship internationally.
