I got Pegasus, Calcifer, the New Year mystery polish, Once Upon a Dream and Be Prepared, the freebie is Fantasia.
I like them all, but especially Once Upon a Dream. I'll add it to my swaplist if you don't mind. We should do a swap after Christmas! I still have a long list of Illyrians, and other polishes. What do you think?

Happy with that (both adding it to list and doing a swap after Xmas). I need to update my list, I've neglected it!

So I just looked at the PPU preview and I now have 9 polishes in my wishlist. How can this be when I've just bought all the polishes in the world??? DRK, Lemming, KBShimmer, Wildflower, Nailed It, Paint It Pretty, Jior, Garden Path & Fancy Gloss at the moment. I also fancy the Phoenix and M&N polishes from Little Box of Horrors, I worry myself sometimes.

I'm finding this month's polishes a bit boring, but I do like 3, the Dreamland, Femme Fatale and Rouge. Maybe the Bluebird too. I mean I like some of the ones you mentioned, but not enough to buy.

I picked up my Femme Fatales on Sunday, but only managed to take pictures yesterday, and just managing to post them now. I'm just always running out of time! Anyway, here they are. I'm very happy with them.

Speaking of Femme Fatale, I'm not sure what to do with PPU. I'm definitely getting the FF, but I can order that directly from them through the group buy (it's much cheaper plus I want 4 from their new collection anyway). I also really like the Dreamland, but I don't really want to pay the extra postage for just that. I've decided against the other two. Nowadays I'm finding that I'm mostly buying because I don't want to miss out, but if they weren't LE, I probably wouldn't bother.

I just saw Girly Bits has a really pretty polish for the Winter Collab (organised by Wildflower), but again, that's the only one I want. Any chance you're ordering from there?

Hi Anita, love your haul! (First pic far right is my absolute favourite).
Do you have a link to the winter collab and I'll have a look? I wonder if it's the one Nailed It are doing but I only saw a FB Group link for that and it's not a group I'm in.

Thanks Anita, I don't think I'll be ordering though (love the Nailed It but not shopping for a single polish). It was the one I was thinking of!
If you decide to get it, we could split the US shipping and consolidation fee. But no pressure, I can live without the Girly Bits.

I ended up skipping PPU and just ordered the FF directly from them, plus a couple of other polishes from the new collection. Get me being all restrained and responsible!

I culled my basket, dumped Jior, DRK and KBShimmer, added a top coat to get to free shipping.
Well done you!

What do you think of the new Glams? I like 4 of them. But did we REALLY need another collection already??? I mean, come on, Black Friday was a week ago! Ugh.

Nice enough, but not that tempting - I may buy the non-glitter purple just because it's nice, I'm intrigued by that reflective thing and I have an open order. Totally agree about the speed of yet another release, should have added them to last week's for a bumper edition, or kept till next year.

I find those reflective glitters totally useless, unless you walk around with a flashlight pointed at your fingers, you can't see it. I do like the pinky and purpley ones though, I'll probably get them. And the 3 holos. Or maybe not all 3. I'll think about it.

Interesting, have you tried them? You're welcome to put the purple holo one on your swap list instead of buying it if you like.

I've been using a new to me nail polish.
EMILIE HEATHE Nail Artist Nail Polish. I bought mine at Nordstrom. I LOVE them. Vegan Non Toxic nail polish and I find it to be very long wearing. At first I wasn't sure about it because the first coat seemed thin, but the second coat made it beautiful. I was told by the owner that they were designed this way. It's so great to do your nails and not smell them. Even my nails look and feel better when they don't have polish on the since I've been using this brand.

I had a topcoat a while ago by Serum no. 5 that I've now sold. It just looked silver unless you were shining a bright light on it. Tonic Flash Lights is really dull without flash or very strong sunlight too. It's basically a gimmick.

Thanks, I'll keep that in mind.

Just to clarify - there are two that could be described as purple, I'm going for The Most Wonderful Time Of The Year!
Thanks, yes, that's the one I thought you meant. I'd say the other one is more mauvey brown. I'm not sure what to get yet. I like two of the glitter toppers and this purple one the most.
