Congratulations to Nail Polish Canada for winning consumer champion from Canada Post's E-commerce awards!

I'll just put this picture of when they sent me 16 red lollipops right here...

Nail polish haul spam!

I've been bad, went to Claire's with my daughter yesterday looking for a present for her friends and couldn't pass on these lovely polishes:



And today my Sally Magpies order arrived, just look at these Lilypads!





My absolute favourite of the bunch is True Blood:



Also from SM and LL, the new Show Me Some Sparkle collection (there's also an orange one that I didn't get). These are amazing!






Merlot for Me


Mystical Marine


This is Wishing Well, the best of the bunch!

My Mei Mei order with 8 Indigo Bananas polishes is waiting for me at the post office, will pick it up tomorrow.

@kimibos I hope you feel better soon hun!

@Naughtyp - amazing haul pics! I'm drooling over here!


Update of my Beautyzone order: after some emailing she sent me a 'fake' invoice I could take with me to the customs office so that they could decide how much fees I'd have to pay. Thanks to the new invoice, nothing. Hah. But I don't understand at all why customs intercepted the package at all because after all she did what she told me and there's a customs form on the package. Very strange. But this was the last online shopping for a while - I was just so exasperated because all of the bother yesterday and that's just not worth it.

And another quite sad update - my second interview two weeks ago went quite well, and today I got a call that another one was chosen for the job. I'm so incredibly disappointed, I felt so sure that this would be my job!


Am I the only one who paints her toe nails throughout winter? I just did my toes with Elixir.

Did you all see this interesting review on Cafe Makeup about different gel topcoats? I wish we had Revlon here still! http://cafemakeup.com/2013/09/25/sketchbook-adventures-prolonging-nail-polish-wear/

Interesting. I have the Guerlain one and I can't say I've noticed any difference in longevity. I think I've also bought the Dior one, but I don't remember where I put it (the story of my life...). It would be cool if that Revlon was available here, I'll keep an eye out for it.

Of course we've had practically no sunlight today but I was nevertheless slightly disappointed. In my Imagination it's much more awesome than in reality lol!

Wow! Just wow!


Not tomorrow today. There are a few Darling Diva and Different Dimension polishes I like the look of, but I'd rather not order twice, so will wait until Saturday.


Yeah, me too, really want Beat It plus a few other colours maybe.

There were some from darling diva that I wanted today but I might be too cheap to pay shipping twice! Do you have highway to hell and tnt? Oh I want all the multichromes too but I ll probably get that later or I ll be broke!

Phew! My box from Sally Magpies was thrown over the side gate yesterday, luckily everything was fine too, but it could've been otherwise.

I picked up my Indigo Bananas from the post office and my Black Cat Lacquers arrived from Rainbow Connection today.









Plus today's mani, DDP Blonde Tornado. Nice subtle duochrome with holo.

Too much to respond to individually. I'll just sum up that everyone's manis and hauls are so drool worthy. I can't get enough of them.

Have you all seen the swatches of some of the new Colors by Llarowe launching tomorrow? They're gorgeous! I didn't get anything from yesterday's restocks to save my pennies for tomorrow. There's way too many retired and new colors I want to pick up. Here's my Dirty Diana mani from a while back that I never posted. Look at that amazing holo!

I haven't hauled any polish for the past few days, but I've been buying things for my polish stash. I bought my 3rd Melmer drawer from Michael's. I was sitting my overflow polishes on top of the 2 drawers I already have as I bought new polish, but I ran out of space for them. Everything was going all over the place and getting out of hand. I also don't like dust getting on them. I definitely like my polishes contained. I'm reorganizing my stash as I put things away. I found these great plastic drawer dividers at the Container Store. They're perfect for sectioning off the inside of the drawers and making my polishes more organized. I'll take pics of everything when I'm done.

I also picked up a couple of containers to store my lipsticks and lip pencils. It's a large acrylic shoe box drawer with dividers. I originally bought it for my overflow polish, but opted to just get a Melmer instead. The shoe box with the divider costs about $21 and holds about 60 polishes. The Melmer with a 40% coupon costs about $25 and holds about 300 polishes. That decision was a no brainer. But I still got the shoe box for my lipsticks. Turns out I need to get a 2nd box because not all of my lipsticks fit.

I'll finally order a label maker and more nail sticks this weekend, too. I want to catch up with my swatches now that I'm reorganizing my stash.

I still paint my toes in the winter when I don't get lazy. I just like looking down and seeing my toes polished no matter the time of year. Glad you were able to get things worked out with the seller and customs.

My mini haul : Essie for the twill of it and the red np ( forgot the name, sorry ), both look so pretty.

Would you be so kind as to tell me what for the twill of it means ladies, thank you !

It's a spin on the phrase "for the thrill of it." The collection is inspired by textiles and clothing materials. Twill is a type of fabric with a distinct diagonal pattern.
