nail polish thread :) *Do Not Quote Pics!*

The Lovely Muffin

I don't know how many times over the past few days I have painted my nails, each and every time they either didn't dry properly, or smudged or I got polish all over my hands.

I've gone through nearly a full bottle of nail polish remover since the weekend. *sigh*

Novella

I am going on a nail varnish shopping spree tomorrow. For sure.

Love the neon Nails Inc and the Bring on the Bling OPI.

I am sticking to nudes at the moment since I am trying to get my nails back into decent condition. Looking forward to going bright again when they grow a bit longer and stronger. I have a nice coral pinky orange on my toes nails at least.

Found these Color Club minis for $1.99 - not sure where you can find Color Club in Ireland besides ordering online, sorry! I wish everyone had minis of their nail polishes. With all the polish I have I don't know when I will ever finish a bottle and I really enjoy that feeling of finishing up a product!

Psychedelic Scene, a really pretty orangey-yellowy color but I don't like how it applied - was very patchy. Although, I've read that yellows usually aren't the greatest.
Jackie Oh! - lovely hot pink
Edie (kinda similar to China Glaze For Audrey)
Mrs. Robinson - bright purple

Can't figure out how to resize these ridiculously large photos, sorry for links. (pics from Google)

Hi Chickenbutt, if you don't mind me asking, what site did you get those Color Club polishes from? I love the Jackie Oh!

Ah you see I bought these in the US I've searched online to see if they have a European stockist, or anything, but no luck... I'd say add them on Twitter or Facebook and ask through there! Good luck!

Just saw a tweet on their feed about emailing them for any questions/comments. Their email is colorsocietyblog@gmail.com.

You can get them on ebay. Hopefully this link works! http://www.ebay.ie/sch/i.html?_nkw=jackie+oh+club&_sacat=26395&LH_PrefLoc=2&_odkw=jackie+oh&_osacat=26395&_trksid=p3286.c0.m270.l1313

I find ebay is best for sourcing polishes cheaply.

Wearing Rimmel PRO - 307 Grape Sorbet. Nice but has a strange streaky effect.

Bought these today :


Models Own Disco Mix. Been looking for this for ages.


Models Own Ibiza Mix.


Max Factor Max Effect in Fantasy Fire.

I also bought a really nice blue by Miss Sporty. I have never bought Miss Sporty anything before but I was in a shop the other day and the girl on the till had the nicest nails so I asked her what she was wearing and she told me it was Miss Sporty. For only three euro, can't complain!

Catrice iron mermaiden (now discontinued i think)
It's a pretty colour. I like how it changes. Glad i got it though because it would suit pretty much all skin tones.
This picture is 2 coats It shows the purple and green hints too which i tried so bloody hard to capture

The Lovely Muffin

Essence Love Of Pink and China Glaze Fairy Dust on both of my ring fingers

OakeyDokey

Wearing Sinful Colors 164 Deep Red Ocean. It reminds me of glitter in jelly! It's very sheer but looks cool. It's mainly applied over other polishes but I think it looks pretty cool on its own.

dudara

Two last polishes from Sephora in the States - this shade Drama Velvet Pearl (as well as Vivid Metallic from the same collection) - $7 each

chickenbutt

Easter skittles! I used Barry M Strawberry Ice Cream, Lemon Ice Cream, Mint Green, Blue Moon, and some limited edition purple.

Edit: Went completely polish crazy today and I do not regret it one bit! hah


I picked up a few from the Hunger Games collection (I had no idea what HG was until I saw these polishes!). I got Stone Cold, Smoke and Ashes, Agro, Harvest Moon, and Riveting (this one is on my toes right now and is so cool!)


I bought Liquid Crystal and Optical Illusion


China Glaze Watermelon Rind


China Glaze Blue Sparrow

If you have nothing mature to say then why bother?

Anyway I wore this yesterday Sinful Colors Blue Ocean.

I actually won those polishes from a blog giveaway so I'm not exactly sure! They're only $1.99 in the states so I'd give ebay a go.

Twee.

I have that problem with a lot of their polishes.

I'm not sure whether it's meant to be like that though. There was a lot of those "foil" polishes coming out that had a similar finish but whether that's the style or just streaky I'm not sure.

Wearing BarryM Navy now.

Took a photo of my stash while reorganizing, am currently looking for something better to store them away. Looking at them all neatly standing up makes it look like I don't have as big a problem as I thought! When they are all scattered it can look quite messy.


Ordered a couple the other day and they should be arriving tomorrow, will take a pic of those as well. (Having Instagram on Droid really makes life easier for me!)

Has anybody seen the 8 top coats which are due to be released by Catrice?! I'm in Dublin city centre but can't see them in the usual spots Including penneys

They haven't been released where i am either. They only just got the latest colors in after discontinuing a load of the regular polish.

The new colours are fab though :P
