Bought another one as well but not 100% sure of the name.

ASOS made a mistake on my last order and as a result I have a spare bottle of Barry M Peach Melba. If anyone wants it PM me. I'll post it to anywhere in Ireland.

Today I bought Barry M in Strawberry Icecream. I can't find any pics of it online that I think do it justice so when I paint my nails with it, I'll upload one.

Anyway, if you spend over 9 euro on Barry M in Boots, you get a really nice, glittery nail varnish free. That was my incentive for buying in the first place! I only went into Boots to pick up a prescription! :pac:

i ended up buying the ice cream purple and the red glitter so i could get the free silver glitter

if it went out of stock i would have been kicking myself and your post made me want it all the more

Butter London's All Hail the Queen. This isn't my pic, and on me it isn't as sparkly as in this picture, but it is overcast today so maybe that is why I don't see it so much! Also, this one is call All Hail the Queen but I sometimes see it is also called All Hail the McQueen.

Stench Blossoms · 14-12-2011 9:52am

This was the other polish I purchased.

OPI - Russian Navy

I ordered the Models Own Beetlejuice collection from their website ages ago, and it finally came today! It took like five weeks to come (xmas rush I suppose), so just a warning to anyone thinking of ordering from there. It did come in a lovely box though! I ordered the box set, which meant I got a free top/base coat.

I've the five polishes on at the minute - Emerald Black is GORGEOUS! Really like Pinky Brown, Aqua Violet, and Golden Green too, but I'm not that gone on Purple Blue tbh. It looks amazing in the bottle, but it's not really that nice on.

I tried to take a pic of my hand with my webcam, but it couldn't pick up the colours properly, so I'm going to post a link to this review from Vampy Varnish. Loads of pretty pictures there! A few too many for me to post though

My first time experimenting with any kind of nail art so I kept it extremely simple! Used a black Sally Hansen nail art pen for it

Gosh Nail Glitter 10 Blue Sapphire.
The picture doesn't do this stuff justice, it's fabulously sparkly. Very easy to use, I love it. Though at €6.99, it is a bit steep....

I cannot find Models Own Disco Mix anywhere. I am going insane!

I've actually never seen any of the Models Own glitter polishes in any of the stands in shops! They usually only ever have the same colours.

I looked on asos to see if they had Disco Mix and they do - Link. It comes with one of the nail art pens free. Asos are usually really quick with sending out make up too, I've got things in two days from them before!

Cupcake_Crisis · 15-12-2011 11:08pm

Got these done in USA Nails in tallaght this evening. Very happy with them!

Aw, thanks! I placed an Asos order 2 days ago and it was sold out then!

I've started doing Biosculpture nails - LOVE THEM! These are my own nails in No 19 Pillar box Red.

chickenbutt · 16-12-2011 4:14am

BL's Knees Up! Oh my gosh this color is so awesome. It's my perfect red. And it's great for Christmas! I can't stop looking at my nails.

I got a Deborah Lippmann nail polish in my Glossy Box.

http://ep.yimg.com/ca/I/lippmanncollection_2184_586812

I love it - the colour is a pinkish red and it is maybe the nicest glitter I have ever tried. I never tried any of her polishes before but I am a fan now.

I think it is worth it though - I have stopped buying Catrice and Essence in favour of Gosh. The Gosh polishes last longer on me - several days longer.

They're gel nails that you cure under a UV lamp but they can removed by soaking in acetone unlike traditional gels. I find them much easier to use than EZ Flow or CND gels.

I'd said I'd try this for the hands as Sally HAnsen products seem to be the business. My badger balm is more of a night hand thing as it's very oily. This is fantastic especially for something to have in your handbag. I wear rings all the time and in lanzarote and because of my wrist issues the rings on my right hand started to itch as my hands and wrists are constantly swollen. As a result I had this big nasty red water mark under the rings all cracked and broken and itchy. Well I bought this stuff 2 nights ago and the mark (which I've had at least three weeks now) is fully healed. My hands feel normal and soft it's fab!!! €7 something in tesco!
