nail polish thread :) *Do Not Quote Pics!*

I pass it on the way home - I can either get you one or let you know it's there ?! It's on Dorset St near Drumcondra basically. No effort required in calling in (I'll probably end up buying more anyway!)

Love this thread! I've just read back over 30 pages! :-)

I'll post up some of my own pics soon but for now a quick q. Can anyone recommend a nice glittery black colour and also a silver glitter top coat but not one with big bits of glitter, only the small stuff! cheap enough would be great. I'm planning on having a look on ASOS and checking out my nearest essence stand as soon as I can if that helps!

• If your Essence stand has the old colour & go bottles, check Galactic Black for 1.29, it's black with tiny silver glitter in it (similar to Orly Goth or China Glaze Haunting but not as sparkly).
• Essence have lots of Nail Art toppers and there's one called Hello Holo for 2.29 that's a dupe for Nails Inc Electric Lane topcoat.
• If the old bottles are gone, try Sally Hansen Complete Salon Manicure in Midnight in NY which is a black with lots of tiny multicoloured microglitter, they're around 7 euro I think but they're brilliant quality.
• Rimmel do a glitter topcoat called Disco Ball, it's around 3.95.
• If the old Essence bottles are gone and they've got the new ones in, check for Space Queen, multicoloured small glitter in clear base, 1.79.

People who have gotten Sally Hansens in Dealz - which Dealz? I went out to Santry to get some and they had zero Sally Hansens.
I've also noticed the Euro shop not doing nail polish anymore.
Sucks!

I got Sally Hansens in Dealz Santry last week, they always get them back so keep trying

If anyone is looking for the old style essence my local pharmacy has loads - their stand hasn't updated in at least a year and it's pretty much full.

I doubt they'll even get the new polishes!

Let me know ..

Ooh I'd also love to know this! It looks to be a dupe of a China Glaze polish too, and it's sooooo pwetty!

Essence walk on the wildside with gold foil



Slightly paranoid that my nails look

a) like souvenirs from a slightly upmarket Carrolls tourist tat shop
b) like I've dipped them in purple snack bar foil wrappers

but happy anyways

Essence have a sparkly black called 'Galactic Black' but it's been discontinued. There's still loads of the discontinued colours out there on Essence stands but might be worth doing a legger to one quickly

I got a bottle in clearys for €0.68 last weekend.

Oh my god! The Essence stand in the Galway Penneys is amazing! Wish I could've bought it all

I got the Disco Disco special effects topper


Doc, the only one I was missing

Pretty full and tidy when I was in! That was about 12 o clock today

Are those special effect toppers available anywhere in Dublin City Centre? They're so cool but I only ever see people from Galway posting them!


I FINALLY got the Snow White toppers yesterday!

I'm wearing Evil Queen today over Sally Hansen Delphinium (not my image)



I love it but it took a bit of getting used to, I'm not used to such huge glitter flakes

Haven't seen them anywhere! The Galway stand is like twice the size of a normal one so there's a lot more space. One side is practically all nail stuff! Hope somewhere in Dublin gets them, didn't have a lot of time to peruse

I want to visit Galway just to get the circus confetti topper!! and the stamping plates

Penneys in the shopping centre in Eyre Square/Shop Street. I may have visited Galway earlier this summer purely to see the Essence stand (my brother was going down for something college-related so I tagged along).

The Doc Morris Pharmacy on the Tonlegee road in Coolock has them.

Right, that's it, shopping trip tomorrow methinks! I NEED that confetti topper, I'm still kicking myself for not getting the Circus Confetti topper when it was released but I couldn't find it anywhere, I'll be damned if I miss out on this one as well!

I was in Gran Canaria last week and amid all the shops selling tourist tat I stumbled on a tiny make up shop selling Catrice polishes for €2.49. I would happily have brought the whole stand home but my bag was already over Ryanair's measly allowence on the way over so I had to limit myself to...

If anyone is in Ardara or Dungloe in Donegal the pharmacies there have quote full Snow White collections on their essence stands!

Also, have essence gotten rid of blue addicted in their new collection?! I'm going to need to stock up if that's the case!

dudara

I just wrote a tweet on Twitter with the hashtag #FridayPolish

The idea is for people to post pics on a Friday of their nail polish. Maybe get the weekend off to a cheerful start.

Anyway, here's todays polish - OPI Your Royal Shini-ness. It's a lovely silver foil polish with slight golden tones.
