Now you are under our spell!!! [You must be registered and logged in to see this link.]

Hahaha, love the evil laugh Baba!
I have only 2 Picture Polishes, Warning and Shocked, oh and Revolution but that doesn't really count. Maybe I have the wrong shades but they just don't do it for me. I find them sheer and a bit watery, and I don't like the bottle shape either.
I consider Kryptonite now and again, but I think the price tag is a bit rich.

I have Paradise and Mardi Gras. I haven't used either yet, I just like to look at them in the bottle.  

I love ohara and ocean, sky and wisteria. Them's me fav's.

And well anyone who wants to maybe get a bottle of PP and help a charity - a few are in the charity auction on the 21st - and you may see me drop this in everywhere and everywhere over the next few weeks  

oooh how do I do a signature on here...

I want a few more bottles but some of them can tell I would only wear once or twice.

Picture polishes look gorgeous, but the ones I tried didn't do it for me quality wise. The finish seemed poor and it looked nothing like the bottle or swatches they use to promote it.

Picture polish is an odd one, it does seem to cause massively different opinions in experiences.

but if whimsy doesn't look like this [You must be registered and logged in to see this link.] then I won't be happy defo!

Ooooh feck. I want that now......

Whimsy looks just like that from what I have seen.

I think nail varnish is very much down to individual chemistry. I know I can't really wear Nails Inc, or OPI. They don't suit me, and they flake really easily.

When I see people saying that OPI are the best thing since sliced bread I want to call them a liar, they are so bad for me.

But if you give me a China Glaze or piCture pOlish and they will stay on my fingers forever.

Don't ask me why.I can only think it is due to chemistry, and your skin/oils etc.

I know, how amazing does it look! Better get a ship load in Sal!

I think your right about the chemistry.

Definitely right about chemistry. Me and Nails Inc just don't get on at all, it'll peel off a few hours after i've put it on. Yet other people swear by it

I've never had a polish last more than 12 hours without chipping, regardless of brand, top or base coat.

We were born from the same egg.

Really? How annoying. OPI sometimes lasts for a week on me.

Oooh, a new one!

Edit: keep scrolling down for Dance Legend Flakies!! I can only see these for sale on the Russian site though  

I need Freya's Cats - an electric blue holo jelly!
And I like the look of Shy Violet but the collaboration bloggers review doesn't seem to praise it that much

Thanks Ninja!  

I agree, Shy Violet looks the nicest despite the reviews. Lagoon looks like it's struggling to sparkle and although I think Electric Dream is amazingly pretty it's just not a shade I'd wear.

Yes, they are already en route from Australia, so delivery should be Wednesday/Thursday.

sorry missed your earlier reply! yay and phew - need to get any orders in before Sat when I loose internet for a week  and miss out on new beauties!
