I've slagged them off as well lol, the Mirrorballs have too much base and not enough glitter, and their dense glitters peel off.

IIRC they're a bit stinky too - not as bad as kleancolor though!

lol - my attention has switched to A england now

Here's a not very good picture of a not very neat but lovely coloured mani.  I'm really loving this SH Fairy Teal.  And I noticed it matches the colour of my bedroom curtains exactly, lol.

It's really gel like. I did put on a Butter London topcoat but it was just as shiny without!

I've gone for full monty rockstar gels today, holiday ready.  They're effing rude, brash, verging on tacky and I love them

I love that Loola, where are you going on your hols?

I'm wearing CG Turned Up Turquoise today, my bargain from Nail Polish Direct last weekend.  I love it, seriously turquoise.

I have turned up turquoise and it doesn't look like that must try it again!

I think it's one of those colours that doesn't photograph very well. It looks much greener in real life, much brighter. When I looked at swatches they were all very different.

Looks amazing! I wore this with a glitter on top and found I got really bad staining. Did this happen with you?

Don't know yet, I liked it so much I haven't taken it off. That said I wear basecoat anyway, and have yet to have a varnish penetrate through that.

Lol I had the Butter London basecoat and it still managed to get through! Let me know when you take it off, I'm just curious.

Oh no, I'm worried now geekybat, lol. I'm using Opi Nail Envy atm, so we'll see. I'll probably take it off tonight, tomorrow at the latest, so I'll let you know.

I started using the Butter London basecoat and think it's amazing. I've only every used the Collection 2000 before that and found it to be quite good too. Was really surprised when I got staining!

Wahh! That's gorgeous!
 
I just got this one at lunchtime, Sally Hansen Plum Power. It's such a rich colour!  I'm going to try stamping over it later, or should I leave it until tomorrow?

Well I hate to break it to you, but I've just removed the Fairy Teal and no staining.

Today I'm sporting A England Briar Rose/Sleeping Beauty

Loving this shade, though I did find the formula a bit too thick which resulted in a bit of a mess on my other hand, lol. Might be just me though, haven't heard anyone else complain about the formula.

A England Lady of Shalott

I was really tempted to get that one but went with Ophelia instead! Can you see the blue in it much or does it just look black most of the time? It's really hard to tell from swatches online. I didn't mind with Ophelia because I haven't got a nice black anyway so no biggie if it mostly looks black, but I'd prefer some colour if I get another from that collection.

Glad to hear it  

Butter London Brummie - it's got a waxy finish and all I want to do is pile glitter on top.
