Nail Polish Discussion - Any Brand

Please tell me the Illamasqua fiasco didn't extent to the new limited edition speckled polishes. I just ordered Mottle.
I hate to be the bearer of bad news, but yes, it did. For me anyway.

Neither my early-mid January order, nor my specklies have arrived yet and they were shipped on the 21st and 23rd of February, respectively. My January order was destroyed by the Royal Mail the first time round, so this was the replacement. I received an e-mail from Illamasqua saying that orders have been destroyed again. It was a generic e-mail and didn't refer to a particular order, but my guess is that neither of them made it. I'd have received them otherwise.

I wouldn't be that worried at this stage because MRV received her January order safe and sound. Chances are your Mottle will join your stash very soon

Here's my new mani: Essence Boho Chic. This isn't the kind of colour I normally wear. I got it mostly for the finish, which I don't think comes across very well it the pic. Oh, and it was being DCd, and therefore half price lol.

I'm really excited for Nymphea. Have you seen swatches? Someone posted some on the purse forum.

AWESOME! I hope mine arrives tomorrow or Saturday. I saw swatches and went nuts. An individual on loveforlacquer.com has beautiful swatches, and I didn't even care that she struggled with Nymphea. It's gorgeous and I want it regardless! Did you also get the Gel Top Coat? The SA said she's sending me some "Goodies," so I'm eager to see what that might be.

Nope, you're not seeing things. It's got irregular chunks of glitter in it, some of which are pretty large. Kinda like flakies, but not exactly. It's a bit like the finish on Cookie Love, but with chunkier pieces.

Glad you like it because there's already one bottle with your name on it

Is it bazaar to say that I find looking at these beautiful swatches calming & therapeutic? Thank you Kimibos! I'm now as calm as a Jay Bird. They're all so pretty. I love the way your Zoya collection is exploding. I really like Zoya too.

OPI tickle my france-y with NYC 105 starry silver glitter.

Nice, Nice haul Naughtyp! I've had issues with Ulta for a long time now and avoid buying from them. The story is too long to tell here---suffice it t say they altered a transaction in a way that cost me more money and no one will ever convince that what they did was unintentional!
ulta sux cuz they won't take coupons for opi anymore guess I will but them elsewhere for cheaper!

Thank you Buick!

Boho Chic is GORGEOUS. What an amazing orange! I wanted to see the finish that you were talking about so I Googled it. You are correct. It's awesome. What a shame that it's being D/C'd. I love the color and the finish!
