On to the polish! it’s a coral creme with excelent formula! Two coats! and this was a $5 polish! I really love this colour! It looks great both on tan and pale hands! Get this if you have the chance!!! so pretty!

China Glaze Dorothy Who?

Another revamp! Can’t believe how bad my first swatches were and those cuticles.. man! As most nail-fanatics know this is a blue jelly base with tons of silver glitter in it! Such a pretty colour.

China Glaze Strawberry Fields

This is kind of a wierd colour! It’s a pink jelly-ish base with gold shimmer! It is a true beauty! To be honest, this swatch is quite old (see the break on my index!), so i don’t remember how it applied and the number of coats!

And about my break here, was in Egypt for a week (where do egyptians buy their nailpolish? all i found was so old the polish had separated completely), and after that i have been working non-stop! Have you done anything exciting so far this summer?

H&M Purple

Lisa — Tue, 06 Jul 2010 06:19:38 +0000

H&M has come out with two 4-packs with nailpolish, and this is from the non-neon one!

This polish is very pretty! A dusty kind of shimmery purple! The only thing is this one smells bad.. like really bad! not when it’s dry though, so you wont have stinky nails

Liverpool nailart

Lisa — Sun, 04 Jul 2010 09:44:33 +0000

So Linnie from Linnie’s favourites has a soccer-contest going! Personally i don’t like soccer that much, but my boyfriend is obsessed. So i decided to do a mani in honor of his favourite team, Liverpool FC! This is all freehand! The middle is the logo, the ring finger is the number of the BF’s fav player, Torres. The red with the white stripes is representing the shirts, made by adidas!

The red is China Glaze Vermillion, The white is H&M Love at First sight, the green is Jade is the new Black from OPI and the yellow/orange is Happy Go lucky and some Vermillion, both China Glaze!

I would love it if you voted for me ;D

I saw that Also Known As had done this, and it looked like fun, so.. yeah

How many polishes do you have in your stash?
I have no idea… about half a Helmer

Which brand do you own the most of?
China Glaze! It was my first love!

What colors do you own the most of?
blues and purples!

Do you have a color/texture you do not own?
I have only two holos!

What’s the one polish you always pick up to lift your spirits?
Mad as a Hatter from OPI

What polish do you keep looking at and wondering why you haven’t gotten rid of it yet?
an orange one from H&M and a few neons from the Ink collection from China Glaze that i just can’t get the hang of!

Franken any? or I’m nervous to try it?
I franken! I just don’t do it a lot! I have just started adding pure pigments, so thats fun!

Do you franken for new/original polish ideas or franken for polish you won’t be able to own?
Depends! If i see an amazing franken, and i have the polishes used, i’ll try! But i have also tried to franken Particulaire (mega fail btw)

Go-to Base Coat?
OPI base coat… Not too many options here We don’t have the huge beauty supplies other countries have

Go-to Top Coat?
OPI top coat or Micro Cell top coat

What’s your sexiest polish?
Hot Pink polish from Depend! I think pink is sexy

Nail Design:
Stamping vs Free Hand?
both! I’m not that great at freehand yet! I have no control over my left hand, so i can’t do a full mani of freehand!

Bling me, baby? or No bling for me, please!
BLING MEEE!

I consider my nails basically nekkid if they don’ t have some kind of design?
nope.. all is good! Now, no polish, thats naked!

My favorite plate/tool/technique?
Full designs! I think it’s so hard to place those tiny ones

What I haven’t tried and want to within the month?
my own glittermix for acrylics.. doing acrylics for Egypt, because i can’t bring my entire polish stash
Purchase/Lemmings:
The one elusive polish you want and can’t seem to get?
Chanel Particulaire (but won’t ever get, because i found out chanel do animal testing!), Sally Hansen Hidden Treasure, China Glaze OMG collection and Nfu-Oh

What was the last nail related thing you bought?
I bought a custom “manicure set” for my sister! Just treatments, files, cuticle pushers and polish

How many nail related hauls have you bought in the last 7 days (on-line/in-person)?
none

If you’ve ever been on a no-buy, how long did it last? Is that what you planned?
I have never intentionally been on one… Sometimes it just happens, mostly because i run out of money

(and one question to grow on) Hobby? Addiction? Compulsion? Passing Fancy? Love?
All! But mostly a compulsion! I can’t stand having the same, unchanged, nailpolish for more than one day at a time! i think my “personal best” is three days

Everyone who wants to do this, knock your socks of

Lisa — Mon, 14 Jun 2010 08:55:40 +0000
