    Sorry for the crap quality (again!!!)

    Wearing Rimmel Blue Vogue today. I love this colour, it nearly looks matte navy in dimmer light but then in bright light there's a lovely shimmery blue off it.

    BTW I have a list as long as my arm of nail varnishes I want to buy thanks to this thread! I'm going to be broke!


  • Registered Users Posts: 205 ✭✭myxi


    I love the nail varnish thread!

    These are mine today. It's Catrice - Bloody Mary to Go.

    This is Ruby Me, by Rimmel.

    I love these Lycra Pro nail varnishes - best brush ever, one stroke and the nail is done! I've had this for aaaages now so it's gone a bit gloopy. Time to invest in more!

    Oh, and my cuticles are are a mess! :( Any recommendations on what to use to sort that? It's really bugging me.

    I love those nail varnishes too! The brushes are great...but I'm crap at painting my nails so it doesn't make a difference, I still have to go around them with a nail varnish remover-soaked cotton bud afterwards :o

    Is that a red colour? It looks kind of coral-y in the pic

    I think I must have quite wide nails or something 'cause with that brush, I never get any on my fingers! Just wish all brushes were like it.

    It's really red. I have a coral Lycra Pro one too, it's called Coral Romance. I've worn both of them about a billion times! They are actually quite similar now that I think about it!

    I've wide enough nails too but I still always manage to mess it up :o Maybelline have those brushes too and their nail varnishes are really good IME.

    I have that coral one too, love it :)

    I love that colour and your nails are so pretty :D

    I've used this in the past..OPI Avoplex Nail & Cuticle Replenishing Oil. I used it twice a day in the morning and night, it moisturizes the nails, cuticles and skin around the nail. I was given it as a gift but I've seen it on Amazon for cheap and was thinking of getting some more I do recommend it.

    Oh, thanks a million! :) Sounds good, 'cause my nails aren't looking their best. In work I constantly have to rip open bags and cardboard boxes and de-tangle jewellery so my poor nails get it!

    I got this in the post today from a lovely Boardsie :D:D

    Nails Inc. copacabana
    259877_10150227552642259_833992258_7181905_3647481_n.jpg

    When I first applied it seemed a bit grainy so I added two drops of nailpolish remover and that really softened it up.. The colour is a red based coral and looks so pretty.

    Messy application though! I was very excited upon receiving nailpolish :D:D

    butter London - Branwen's Feather

    It looks dark, shimmery purple in the bottle but on my nail it's more like black. I'm not sure if I like it...

    Thank you so much :)

    Have you got a link to it on the site though? Cause I looked and used the search box but its not showing up (for me anyway) :(

    €9 isn't too bad. I paid around £20 for a Nails Inc one on eBay recently :o

    Its a limited edition and you have to buy cocktails in some swanky bar in the UK to get it and it wa sone I really wanted so figured I'd pay the high price for it. :o I'm crazy.

    I just had a look there, it must be out of stock because I only ordered it last week.

    £20? :eek: :D okay I don't feel so bad about €9 now!! :)

    Edit: I just sent them a mail thru their site to see if they will be restocking it. I'll let you know what they say.


    Finally heard back from lookfantastic.com!

    Used the Matte Finisher as a top coat. Think I preferred it shiny.

    I'm in love with them all :p
    IMO the Shatter effects are much better than the OPI versions. and ;3.99 much more cost effective!!

    This is Avon nailware pro in coral with the blue Barry M nail effects on top.

    Today I am wearing Essie - Chinchilly. It's a much softer grey than my picture shows. Probably more suited for autumn than summer!
