    Tried there already with no joy :(
    i dont know for sure but try matt o flaherty chemist. they have a fair few polishes. if your desperate for it try joyces pharmacy in knocknacarra. i dont know if they have it for defo but i know they sell opi and stuff so its worth a shot. if you dont want to travel for nothing maybe give them a call and see if they stock it first.

    yeh i heard that a while ago.weird because everyone talks about them but maybe its all talk and no buying. shame but i'm sure something new will come out and replace them soon if it isnt out already.

    I ADORE Eyeko nail polish! I have 6 of them and now it's my mission to get the rest before they go :(:(:( That really sucks I thought the nail polish would be their number one seller!

    Saw it on various blogs :( I love their polishes so I think I might buy a few more before they all sell out.

    As much nail polish as i've bought this week I have always wanted Chi chi and Cosmic, think i'll follow suit with you and get them before they're gone! Checked their website and their product list will be tiny without polish

    So excited. Went to clonmel today for a spin and picked up a starter Konad nail stamp set. Cant wait to try it later.

    I recently ordered a selection of polishes from elf. They went on really well but I was disappointed to find that they chipped after a couple of days. Then I found this
    http://www.sallyhansen.co.uk/products/nail-shine-miracle. Works brilliantly, so I can buy the cheap polish, apply the topcoat and get at least a week out of it. Happy Days and nice shiny nails. I bought an elf topcoat and realised that it was a matt finish. Sorry but I just don't get the matt look, I like shiny nails. Bottle of elf matte finish going free to the first person to pm me.

    Just a taste. Couldn't get the stamp working and was starting to get disappointed, then I realised the knack is to just pop the stamp over the plate to make it stick!!! well now that I know, I cannot decide what colour to do my nails!!!!

    Anyone here use the Sally Hansen Complete Salon Manicure?

    I saw them in town today, they are around €10 per bottle.

    This is it

    http://www.sallyhansen.co.uk/products/complete-salon-manicure-nail-colour

    Is it any good? Does it really last 10 days?

    Thanks for any help!

    I've heard a lot of mixed reviews from it but a lot were saying it was really good and long lasting. I have yet to try it, subscribed to stellar to get the 4 free bottles so waiting on those:)

    It took about 5 coats to get the blue Barry M one to look at all like the bottle.. Tis awful thin!!

    My poor nails are in shocking condition, I seem to be breaking a nail every other day doing the delivery at work :(

    It's called Blue Moon. It's actually really lovely once it's on, but I dont wear it too often because it takes so long to apply :(


  • Registered Users Posts: 18,159 ✭✭✭✭phasers


    I have that Barry M polish and I only ever need one coat because it's so thick! Weird.


  • Registered Users Posts: 423 ✭✭stargirl.gra


    well I reckon the Konad topcoat that comes with the stamp set is a good topcoat. I'm a dog groomer so hands are in hair and water all day which leads to lots of chipping but today my nails still look as good as new after a mornings work.

    Love this thread :)

    Today I'm wearing 'Purple with a Purpose' OPI Nail Lacquer. Bought it in America last summer, and only wish I'd bought more. It's the best nail varnish I've come across, doesn't chip easily and as someone who tends to pick off nail varnish, this stuff is incredibly hard to pick off, so I leave my nails alone when I'm wearing it. Does anyone know a good website that I can buy it on?
