Polish Sale on Ebay

Hey all....

Long time no post eh? Well it's been a hectic year and I no longer have the time to blog anymore. I miss it so much!! Along with having to restrict my living expenses...I can no longer justify spending on polish (boo hoo).

I always hoped to return to posting but it just hasn't materialised unfortunately. Maybe after the summer I can return. Anyways for UK readers who may be interested I have put up some of my rare polishes in my collection for sale on eBay (sacrilege I know) but I'd rather these go to a better home. I have two rare OPI polishes on there...OPI glacier bay blues and OPI movin out. I know these will be on a few people's lemming list, so here's your chance. I could of done a polish sale on here but ebay was a lot more convenient.

If you do have a look hope you find something you like :)

Thanks

Tee Dee

Butter London - Two Fingered Salute

Hello Everyone,

Firstly, last chance to enter my giveaway which closes tomorrow click here if you have not yet entered.

 

Today I have a Butter London polish to show you - Two Fingered Salute. I usually pass Butter London polishes becuase of the price tag although the unusual colour of this one and slightly naughty name won me over.

 

This is four coats of Two Fingered Salute (yes four). The formula on this was quite sheer and on the thin side. Two fingered Salute is a muted green with copper flecks. Very unusual, reminds me of a flecked duck egg.

 

Price? I got mine of ebay for £10 which is slightly cheaper then how much it retails on Butter London where polishes are £12.

 

What do you think about Butter London polishes?

Miss Sporty Metal Flip - Fiery Blaze

Hello Everyone,

Yeah I know, I've been on the missing. But I haven't disappeared completely. I still have lots of new polishes to show you, I just have to find the time to swatch. Today I have one of the Metal Flip Polishes from Miss Sporty - Fiery Blaze.  I have the collection in my giveaway here.

This is 3 coats of Fiery Blaze. A blue based duochrome which switches from purple/green/gold. Love Love Love this, its my favourite from the collection. The colours are are a bit like Orly space cadet but smooth rather then glass flecked, I'll have to do a comparison with Revlon Kiwizing, as I think its similar.  Prize £1.99 each from Miss Sporty Online or Superdrugs in store.

What do you think?

China Glaze Wicked Collection 2012 - Glitter Goblin

Hello folks,

I have one of China Glazes new Halloween polishes to show you today, part of the Wicked Collection. I don't have lots of glitters in my collection as I find them a bit of a chore to wear, removal always seems to be a hassle. I'm a sucker for Halloween collections so I got over my glitter snobbery for this collection :-) This is Glitter Goblin.

This is two coats of Glitter Goblin over Misa's Bourbon on the Rocks. Glitter goblin is a glitter polish (obviously) containing brown, orange and holographic particles in a clear base. I haven't used a topcoat in these shots but I suspect these would have looked much better if I had. I picked my bottle up at Olympia Beauty but I think these are widely available now.

What do you think? Like or loath glitters?

A few press shots of some of the new releases in the UK. The Duochrome/Multichrome trend has finally landed here. Its only a few years behind everywhere else.

Rimmel

Royal Blue

Pearly Queen 

God Save the Queen

Miss Sporty 

Aurora Borealis, Beetle Wings and Fiery Blaze

Topshop also have duochromes/multichromes some of which I've featured on my blog here. Barry M also have a couple of shades, Models Own have the Beetle Juice Collection and H & M has the shade Lady Luck. Also not forgetting Nail Pop's Kimono. So if your struggling to find polishes to curb your duochrome fever and missed out on the infamous Chanel Peridot there are a few places that now stock this type of polish. Hallelujah.

NEW Misa High Society Collection 2012 - Bourbon on the Rocks

Afternoon all,

Autumn is most definitely here, not that Summer was about much! One thing I love is Autumn/Winter polish collections. The rich warm earthy shades are my favourite. On my trip to Olympia Beauty couple of weeks back I picked up a few polishes. This one caught my eye in the Misa stand. I didn't realise it was part of Misa's new High Society Winter Collection. I wanted to kick myself that I didn't check any of the others out. This is Bourbon on the Rocks.

 Shade 

This is two coats of Bourbon on the Rocks. A dark red orange shimmer. Reminds me of leather, dark antique red wood and tobacco. Very rich and warm. Application was flawless. I think I've found my Autumn staple. I think the High Society Collection is out now and available. Amazon UK has the collection but I think you might be able to find it a bit cheaper elsewhere. 

What do you guys think?
