    Was in Boots in Liffey Valley today and wow, I'm in love with the Models Own Pro nail varnishes. I tried to buy 2 of them but 1 was recalled or something so the lady at the till wouldn't let me have it >_< Will paint my nails tomorrow with the 1 I bought to show you. I think it's so nice. I want them all!

    I have absolutely no idea, but I'm fairly familiar with OPI so I will let you know when they arrive

    I got my order from Beauty Emporium today, some Sleek makeup and 2 China Glaze, 1 OPI - comparing them to my own, they're exactly the same, smell the same, same writing on bottles, apply the same, so I don't know how they do it, but I'd be almost 100% sure that the stuff is genuine. Can't vouch for their MAC or Bobbi Brown but happy with the polishes!!

    Nails Inc Shoreditch.

    Without flash, photo / swatch taken in natural sunlight.

    With flash.

    Have to say, I'm not too impressed with Nails Inc Lexington Street, only a few hours after I applied it, it had chipped.

    IRL it's not close to how it looks in the promo pic, that said, I wasn't expecting it to be exactly the same, but if it was even close I would have been happier with it.

    Sarah, I use the foil method for removing glitter polish, this is a clear youtube video on it:

    443.jpegNavy

    585.jpeg Mushroom

    578.jpeg Strawberry ice cream -dont know why the pic is this colour, its pink in real life! :rolleyes:

    389.jpeg Raspberry

    519.jpeg Fushia

    577.jpeg Berry Ice Cream,,, a lot nicer/brighter in real life

    375.jpeg Vivid Purple

    Ive Berry Ice Cream on at the moment, its fab

    If anyone needs a recommendation for a really good top coat that also dries your nails, try this:
    [Embedded Image Removed]
    Its fab, dries really quickly to a rock hard finish and makes your nails look super-shiny!

    Will be trying out that Rimmel one next - Misty Jade :D

    I took this using my phone so forgive for it being bad.

    Essie - Smooth Sailing
    scaled.php?tn=0&server=735&filename=s7xf.jpg&xsize=640&ysize=640

    I'm really annoyed because it's an amazing colour with silver, pink and green shimmer running through it.

    BTW I found out that I had purchased that polish from ebay at the start of the month but forgot, I got it off a Chinese ebay seller and it cost 1.58 including shipping the user has loads of really cheap polish for 1.58 on "Buy it Now" offer. P&P is free. I'm interested in trying this out and if it's good I might try the cheap crackle polish they have.

    Catrice 520 Apricot - really impressed with the drying time of this polish!!! The colour was a bit boring so i painted over with Essence 03 Fashion victim for a wee twinkle.

    That always happens me with stuff I buy on eBay from China, I make that many impulsive buys that I end up receiving random things in the post that I've completely forgotten I'd bought. Awesome :)
