love Mrs o'learys bbq. very nice!!!! how many coats does it take?
Yeah I've been on the look out for a nice deep red that isnt too red if that makes sense! I only got it today so just had a sneaky application to one nail before I bought it, but even with one coat it seemed pretty good. I would say two coats will do it. Put the Catrice one on first and Mrs O'Leary is waiting in the wings

They had them in Dundrum yesterday - I got some in Henry St on Sat... I'd imagine it was a bit hit & miss to start with, but if you search nail foils on ebay there's lots (I'm going to order some when I've finished playing with the ones I have now) 0 -

I've applied this polish to my nails numerous times over the past few days and when I apply the first coat, it dries quickly and fully, when I apply the second coat, it dries quickly, but not fully.Purple_Bobbin wrote: »NYC Prince Street - absolutely LOVE this colour. Going to put it on tonight

I found, to get the same colour (or at least near enough the same colour) as in the photo, you need 3-4 thin/light coats, which is fine, but as I said, the second coat doesn't dry fully, so when you apply the third and fourth coat, obviously your nails aren't going to dry (or at least fully dry).
I spent about two hours (again) last night only for the same thing to happen.
So either I have a dodgy bottle, or it's one of those polishes that doesn't dry after more than one coat. It's a shame really as the colour is fab.
I have NYC MoMa on my toes and it dried quickly and fully, gorgeous colour.
Butter London "HRH" and Illamasqua "Poke" are similar in colour to NYC "Prince Street"
Hope this helps.:)0 -

It's so disappointing that nowhere near me sells Catrice
Does anywhere near Henry St, O'Connell St or Grafton St sell Catrice?
I'm hoping to get to Dublin in the next few weeks so would love to pick up some Catrice bits. Unfortunately I won't be anywhere near Liffey Valley or Dundrum 0 -

I got NYC Long Wearing Nail Enamel Pink Promenade Creme during the summer and I was very disappointed with it. It didn't even last a day - simply peeled off my finger nails. :mad:I applied it the same as all my other polishes.
http://www.newyorkcolor.com/products/nails/nail-color/long-wearing-nail-enamel - not really a good representation of the colour though.
This is my first post in this thread. I used to be a nail polish junkie. My love has been rekindled this year and I have been lurking on this thread for a while:) and have been buying a few polishes a month.
I have been wearing Essence No More Drama for the last few days. I like it a lot more than I expected to and it has worn pretty well.

Penneys on O'Connell St has a good range of Catrice products including alot of the nail polishes.
I can't remember how much they are but not expensive!0 -

Penneys on Henry Street and O'Connell Street stock it, as does Dunnes on Henry Street and possibly the one in Stephen's Green too, I can't remember. They're 2.79 if I remember correctly 0 -
