    Did you try beautyzone2007 on ebay?
    Yeah I did and unfortunately they don't have it.

    I emailed a couple of sellers on www.ebay.com and they don't ship to Ireland unfortunately :(

    Muffin have you tried emailing the beauty emporium? they might be able to get it for you.

    Ah that sucks, I'm finding it all the time on eBay too :( I have joined pages and groups on Facebook for swapping items, and have gotten bits I've wanted there like this, that I can't get anywhere else... if you fancy trying that let me know, I can "hook you up" LOL :cool:

    I'm on work placement and can't wear nail varnish. I'm actually embarrassed by my nails! :o I try to keep them covered as much as possible! :pac:

    Bought Max Factor's Fantasy Fire 45. I went looking for it in two places but they were out of stock so I got some on Boots online and they are going to my friend in the UK who will send them on.

    Apparently this is a dupe for the discontinued Clarins 230 which is famous in the nail blogging world as 'unicorn pee' due to its rarity and beautiful colour.

    Here are some photos from google image search.

    Pythia could that be an almost dupe for Rimmels Zeitgest?

    I have the zeitgeist if you want it?

    It doesn't look like Zeitgest to me. Mermaiden by Catrice (I think) is the closest to Zeitgeist I have seen.

    I'm wearing Rimmel's Aqua Cool, it's a lovely lavender colour. Sorry for the blurry picture. :p

    Definitely isn't. Zeitgeist is much much darker and has green/brown duochrome.

    Love Rimmel's nail varnishes so much, this is their pro range in Ultra Violet and their topcoat in Disco Gold!

    I have Super Bossa Nove and Braziliant and I love them. Colour is popping and looks soo summery :D

    I'll have to pop a picture up of my current nailpolish!

    Had a Shellac manicure this morning, colour I chose is very similar to the Chanel Rouge Noir that I posted before. Love it, very glossy!

    I bought Butter London 'All Hail the Queen' polish in a shop in Dundrum the other day. e15 for a nail varnish! Very pricey! The colour is beautiful though, a neutral with a subtle holo glitter.

    Pics from google.

    I was inspired to dig out my bottle of Zeitgeist and put it on. One coat was enough and the colour is still the same - and this is an old bottle, the price sticker is in pounds.

    I think I might give each one of my extensive Rimmel collection an airing. I put on Peppermint the other day and loved it. I have been on a more expensive varnish kick since Christmas ( for the first time ever) - Nails Inc mostly, but also Opi, Deborah Lippmann and Ciate and I have forgotten how much I like some of the cheaper brands like Rimmel.

    I would love it! How are these things handled?

    The bottle I have from years back is half empty and has gone hard and gloopy.

    I love the purple Barry M.

    I got Naomi by Andrea Fulerton in my Carmine box this morning.

    I haven't tried it yet but I like the colour - a wine red. Never heard of her before so will be interested to see what it is like on.

    Tried this last night and was very unimpressed with it.

    It's thick, gloopy, goes on streaky. Not happy at all.

    I'm going to get a nail polish thinner and try it, hopefully it will work, if not, it'll be the last LD polish I buy.

    Interesting. I got a Leighton Denny polish in my Glossy Box last year and while I like the colour the coverage was awful. Wasn't impressed.

    yeh i didn't mind either way as i needed a black but it is really odd that the glitter doesn't translate on the nail at all. i really only got it becasue they are discontinuing it from their line :o

    Picked up a few Catrice polishes today as well after seeing this post! 4 for €6 :)

    Managed to get my paws on a nail polish rack recently .... other than the fact it says Nails Polish Centre I'm absolutely loving it!

    Orlee, where did you get the nail polish rack? I want!!

    I have issues! Got these today. In fairness most of them were €1.50 so don't feel too bad! :D


  • Registered Users Posts: 4,281 ✭✭✭Valentina


    Nails Inc - Lancaster Gate. Brighter days mean brighter polish! I love the blue-ish shimmer through this and it dried really quickly. The only bad thing about it was it took 3 coats to get even coverage.
