Dreamland Lacquer 131 Angstrom. (Why does my phone think all green polishes are blue???) This was lovely and sparkly - and a complete stainer even with a base coat.

Starrily Blitzen (this one's more green in real life too)

These are pretty - whether it's the right colour or not. Have you tried adjusting your camera settings? I find using pro/daylight setting makes the colours look warmer and that can help with the blue tones.

Thanks!
I did try messing with settings, but it doesn't seem to have very many, so I've found the best I can get. I'll just have to keep saying "this is green irl!"

These aren't really tempting me...
And I haven't bought the red Glam I want either!

I thought maybe the blue and the pinky red, but after seeing the swatches, nah.

I didn't order any Glams. Just can't afford it this month. I like 4 from the It collection, but if they're sold out by next month, then I won't cry over them.

I do really want some PfDs, but it has to be a choice between Tonics and them, and I'm going to get the Tonics this month.

I would also love some of the TIS exclusive Illyrians, but again, no money. :mecry:

Hahaha, I was just going to tell you that Glam are offering to combine the orders, but I can see that you have placed an order (the red one I presume?). I've ended up ordering We All Float Down Here.

Lol, I spotted the combined shipping post this morning and bought it when I got to work. How did you know???
I spotted your request to combine just now when I facebooked them the request to combine, but you posted this hours ago? Yes, just the red one for me, I'm sure it will look exactly like one of my other Glams - but what if it's better and I miss it?!? Hope you love your choice, I could have chosen a few but I haven't got the cash (not even really for the one I bought but...)

ETA Just spotted Glam's tag post, your cyber stalking is less impressive now I've found that!

I know, there have been a few things I've had to wait for recently, it seemed a bit easier cutting down over the summer months, but those vampy reds are back in season and you know I'm a sucker for those!
I want a few PfDs, there have been about 3 releases of Illyrians I've missed and the red EP from the last release. Plus allegedly Alchemy have some new things coming out, which I'm stupidly excited to see (but she posted on 1 Oct that they were coming for her anniversary, and I'm sure that should have been a couple of days ago...). Oh yes, and I really wanted to get Hard to Empress, but missed it (so far, and it's probably long gone by now). And PPU stuff. And a few extra HHS Glams. Etc. I thought I was in recovery, but I guess I was well wrong!
I haven't even looked at Tonic, since she stopped putting stuff on FB I haven't seen what's coming out, and since I'm broke I don't need another list of things I can't afford!
I am hoping to at least get some of the Illyrians come Black Friday. Hope they put all the ones I want out for that.

If either of you ladies would like Tonic Firefly (swatched on one nail) shipped to your US address, I'd happily pass it along free of charge.

Lol, sorry I freaked you out with my cyber sleuthing! :D I saw Kay tag you in the post about the combined shipping, that's all. I promise I'm not a stalker, hahaha!

Hope you like the one you ordered too. I would've also liked the purple one, but like you said, I'm sure I have a similar one among my 400+ Glams! The one I ordered seems pretty unique.

It's a real struggle! I'm happy to sort out some decant swaps for the ones you missed, I'm sure you have a few things I'd like too. I have a lot of new Illyrians, Hard to Empress, might have also ordered some of the HHS Glams you were after?

Ha, how moany was that post??? I'd love to swap but I'm not sure I have much you would want since I've been trying not to buy so much recently. I suspect you have most of what I've got. Mostly Glams, one Illyrian order, a few LynB ones, a Pahlish order and a couple of PPU shades - oh, and the new EP Opals. I'm a couple of releases behind with PfDs, if you are further back than me I might have a couple you don't have but I doubt it! I also got a few extras from Harlow with my PfDs, ILNP and KBShimmer I think, and a couple of Envy and Potion polishes.
I just glanced down my Paypal a/c to see what there has been, I'm actually quite impressed how much I've cut down on the NP spend over the last few months.

I'll have a think. There were a few Pahlishes I liked, but never ordered. I haven't ordered from PfD for a while, the last ones I got were from the Polished Okie collection. Which HHS Glams did you order? I'm also a little behind on my ILNP releases, maybe you have some that I haven't. Or KBShimmer?

Ooh I would definitely like Dark Kiss and probably a few Pahlishes. Let me have a think and a Google and I'll get back to you soon. Also let me know what you'd be interested in mostly, I have some newer Illyrians coming soon and I have a few PfDs from PPU/FTLOP box too.
