I'm torn. Nails, Inc. are like $4.50 less per bottle than Butter London, but I have an unexplainable loyalty to Butter London for some reason. I'm going to swatch Blagger and play around with MacBeth, Snog, Jaffa mixing (at Macy's). I have Snog, and I was thinking about getting Jaffa anyway... Oh dear. Any premonitions of an upcoming sale?

I feel the same unexplainable loyalty. I know that if I branched out the different bottle sizes and shapes would drive me crazy, so I stick with Butter as some form of control.

I'm keeping my fingers crossed that they offer 30% off soon... but no idea when/if they will. The promos they've offered in Feb and March were kind of meh, and now they're pushing the lip gloss... so here's hoping.

I need to get myself to Macy's. I can't stop thinking about Alcopop.

I have the Nails Inc one, so I'll let you know how it is!

Space nails as inspired by Pinterest and this tutorial. They are super sparkly in person

I love space nails!

I've got Chanel Frisson on right now. I think it's Frisson, but that might e the pale sparkly pink. This is a super bright blinding silver white. It is the worst polish ever. It is a brush stroke nightmare and impossible to get looking good. It also bubbled, probably because I messed with it too much trying to get rid of brush strokes. Hideous, hideous polish. What were they thinking? It's like flashback to the worst polish of 1989.

I hate returning opened makeup products since they will get thrown out, but I'm seriously considering it.

I think Frisson is the sparkly pink. I was definitely looking at it! I'm sorry to hear you had such an annoying time with the polish you were using!

MO! LOVE the space nails! I'm obsessed with them, and repin whenever I see them on the pinterest. I haven't had the patience to try to myself.

Love the space nails, mo!

I have not been able to paint my nails in 2 weeks. I feel really bad about wasting polish! :/

You are right. Frisson is awesome! Right up your alley.

The white is Attraction; it was the spring runway color for spring collection.

I DIE.

I got an Ikea storage unit for my polishes. I am in love with it.

I'm wearing Zoya Jem today. It doesn't matter to me that it's spring, the shiny dark purple is irresistible some days.

rica on my fingers and blue on my toes - breezi maybe?

Butter London Teddy Girl on my fingers and Snog on my toes. I love Snog a lot more than I thought I would. I love Teddy Girl, too, but it was a bit difficult to get even. Full disclosure: I went to a nail salon to get them done. It was one of those times when you're like, I could do a better job than that. #FirstWorldProblems Oh well. I'll probably leave it until it chips. I'm so glad I got the color though, it's just what I was looking for. Now I want Cheeky Chops for an accent nail. Ha! Do you all have a running list of colors you want? I'm adding Lillibet's Jubilee to mine.

Mo!!!!!! I love your space nails

Sorry about the fake bloody finger, but it's the only picture I took and I liked it a lot, so -__-



China Glaze Riveting


It looks a little more red in real life.

Scary, but i'm glad that i've never heard of these outside of the nail art one:

Holy moly, andi_vert! That fake bloody finger is terrible!

Polish is gorgeous, but I'm so glad to hear the bloody finger is fake--it looks so painful!

Interesting story. I've never heard of any of those brands. Than again, I don't do my nails at salons so I'm indifferent.

On topic, I'm wearing China Glaze "Ingrid". I like to think that China Glaze made this polish for Ingrid Bergman just as they did For Audrey for Audrey Hepburn.

Not my photo, just showing the color

Oh! That's a pretty color, paxloo. I go to salons, and I've never seen any of those brands. I have heard stories of salons refilling OPI and Essie bottles with other brands though.

That Ingrid is pretty!
Zoya just posted this to their facebook:

So, if you haven't "liked" them on fb yet, this might be a really good time to do it.

Any recommendations on neon polishes? I emailed AA, although I'm not sure if I'll buy from them. I've seen illamasqua at my local Sephora, so I might try them. I'm in a super grumpy 'damn L'Oreal to hell' mood. There are so many Essie colors that I'd snap up in an instant.

it looks like no miss has some new shades? got an email from AO this morning and they were featured:

ndpittman, I posted this on the other thread, but I'll post here too so you don't miss it. Diamond has vegan neons for cheap, and I like their formula.

Otherwise China Glaze always has nice neons.

China Glaze has a bunch that Ive seen swatched on Scrangie.

I have on Blue Boy. I like it, but did it in a hurry, so it's a little patchy. It's semi jelly and really needs three thin coats.

I might do Distraction (bright coral) for tomorrow. I'm so addicted to Gold Fingers, but don't want to use up my bottle.
