Which Inglot polish is that? Very pretty btw!

Thanks, it's Inglot '202'.

The dress was from ebay from a Chinese seller called 'lovestoryuk'. It cost 21.49 pounds inc delivery. Here is the ebay picture.

Suomi love that polish. Must starting giving hints for Xmas to my hubbie !
Here's what I'm wearing today (not my photo) - its mavala in Bilbao. As my hubbie described it, it's a cherry colour and girlie :-)
It needs a top coat though it give it the shine

Shellac - Hollywood.

China Glaze Urban Night with Models Own Boogie Nights. Way nicer in reality, just doesn't photo well at all!

Hi, what is the best brand to use for no chipping? Is there such a brand?!

xDramaxQueenx

I think using a base coat, two paints and a top coat (let them dry in between mind you) reduces chipping. I like china glaze, opi and jessica, i find they last well.

Quick question - is there any difference really between base and top coat? Top coats are shiny but are base coats matte to grab colour better?

Im wearing Essie - Damsel in a dress
Needs 2/3 coats plus a top coat

Impulse buy but good buy following a trip to the cinema today:



Haven't used any of them yet but am looking forward to trying goldeneye.

Also got kendall on the katwalk by OPI which is just AMAZING



Also ordered the following on ebay:

Trust me when I say the picture doesn't do it justice, am wearing it now hope to upload pics in the morning



Pure joy - perfect Christmas polish!



and finally



Great top coat that dries in seconds has completely changed wearing nail polish for me - no more smudges and fingerprints!!

I love Rommel London I <3 lasting finish. Right now I'm wearing 200 orange drop although I don't like the colours a much as the other colours in the range. My favourite is definitely 703 pearl drop. I wore it for at least a week with base and top coat and there was barely a chip!

My first (and pretty awful) attempt at some Nail Art, Ombre & Caviar Nails!
As they say, practice makes perfect






Excuse my horrible toes :eek:

Nails for a friends party at the weekend



Love kawaii nails but oh be the hokey I will be spending a lot of time removing nail glue tonight.

On a shiny, happy note I got a spot of good news from the Revenue Commissioners today so I am off to eBay to have a bitofa China Glaze binge.

Aggggh I haven't been here in so long! Got married in October, forgot to take a pic of the nails! They were shimmery white with rhinestones on ring finger.

My newest love is O.P.I - Goldeneye - I have never in my life fallen for a gold polish but OH MY GOD!!!!!!! I did a gold comparison post on the blog but Goldeneye is on my ring finger, just ordered the full sized version - a rarity for me with OPI!!!!



Just in case anyone wants to know, thumb is Revlon: 'Golden Charm', Index: Catrice 'Goldfinger', Middle: Essence 'Gold Fever', Ring: Catrice 'Oh My Goldness!', Pinky: O.P.I 'Goldeneye'.

Someone posted a link to a nailside cloud nails tutorial a while back, I absolutely love it. Am no good at freehand drawing nail art & this is both cute & easy! It's just missing a Mario 1up mushroom but there's not a chance I could draw one <heads off to google mario decals>

Wearing Essie Van D'Go (not my pic - polishandpearls.com)



I was getting tired of fall colors so went for a bright one to break it up! This one is a streaky mess, though. Took 3 coats and still have weird bald spots..

Just bought a similar colour myself by sally hansen :P

I bought a new polish yesterday, it's a brand called Layla Cosmetics which I've never heard of but it cost 9.90 so it must be okay. I was a little disappointed, it looked so gorgeous in the bottle but oh well, it's still a very cool looking purple polish! I think I'll try it over black next time to see what happens.



Also, I found a picture on my phone that I forgot to post. It's from the nail polish swap, it's Barry M Amethyst Glitter over NYC Ink Stain.

Darn! They are so pretty but so stupidly priced when you take shipping into consideration!

The nailpolish group is thinking of holding a Secret Santa Swap this year and I just wanted to let you know that if you would like to participate the information is on the group page.

For access PM me but must have over 100 posts.

Thank you!

Wearing China Glaze Trendsetter (not my pic, but I wish my cuticles looked that amazing!)



It's one of those ugly pretty colors... I really like it!

Just a quick question. I love the Essence stands in Penneys in Galway as they have a massive nail section for it. Is there one like that in Dublin? In the city centre. Thanks!
