I just layered Inglot 202 over a black nail varnish on my toes.

Catrice Iron Mermaidian. Love this it looks purple but if you look at your nail the other way it's green.

Used Konad image plate m51 in the special polish in silver but the black came out way nicer on the ring finger but hey you gotta play around!

apropos apricot is really nice. i though sir yes sir would be more of an army green but it appears to be quite dark in the swatches i have seen

stargirl.gra

I have the apricot on my toes stamped with the back to black. Not sure I've the right skin tone for apricot but it's growing on me and the sir yes sir i havent tried yet, really it should be next on my list but I bet/ hope my metro collection polishes will come this week so I'll be preocupied with them:D

Stench Blossoms

Is it possible to buy MUA stuff on the internet does anyone know?

I saw some of their stuff in Superdrug before I left but I'd love to get some of their stuff. I love their eye shadows!

Novella

Barry M - Peach Melba with an accent of Barry M - Coral. It's still wet so I haven't cleaned up any mistakes yet which is why it looks a bit messy.

my god that Barry M Peach Melba is TO DIE FOR!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Novella

^ Yeah, it's nice. I find pale colours make my nails look a bit... crap, but I love it in the bottle! :pac:

i have it. lovely in the bottle. it was a pain to apply. kind of streaky dissapointed! made my nails look really weird too.
i'm going to try it again though. sometimes it takes a few goes to finally get the polish to apply nicely

Novella

Agree! I found it difficult to apply as well. I'm not mad about the Barry M brush in general though, I think it's too skinny so you have to repeatedly stroke the nail and that can make the coat sort of uneven

I think I have a new favorite polish!!! This is literally so amazing I can't stop looking at it! Dirt cheap holographic! Bought it in Hairspray in Dundrum. At first I thought it wasn't very holographic but on its 2nd coat it was fab!

Purchased two new shades today

Catrice No 350: Hip Queens Wear Blue Jeans (Image taken from The Polished Perfectionist). I was going to buy the Dior version but I reckon that this close enough



Second was Gosh No 540: Ocean (Picture taken from Witoxicity)

Yeah not good, going over the initial stroke is always dodge - specially on the paler colours. How many coats of the Barry M Peach Melba in the pic you posted?

That's 2 but it could do with a third!

Ouch - I dont like needing more than 2 - because I like a top coat of clear glossy as well. Does it wear well though - could be worth the pain of 3 coats if it lasts a while.

I didn't use topcoat or do a third 'cause I was in a bit of a rush. It's been on for a few hours now and hasn't chipped yet so we'll see how it goes!

Twee.

Obvz not my nails :pac:

This is Essie Dive Bar



Also picked up Essie Matte About You matte coat, can't wait to try it! Think I'll pick up just one more colour before I leave. Possibly Chinchilly, or something like it.

i'd say they would look amazing on longer nails

Now Catrice Yes Sir Yes!!!!!!!!!!!!! Well ok maybe it is darker than the army green you expect from the bottle and I have China Glaze Westside Warrior on the way to me so hopefully that may be a bit lighter BUUUUUTTTTT this only needed ONE coat which I cannot believe!!! I don't think I own any polishes where I'm happy to just leave it at one!!! and you know I actually really like this. Slightly dark(it appears grey in certain lights but definately green so.....
