I need I got a rock! Because I do have so many rocks,I need this polish. Also I've been dying to try something from chirality for Soooo long!
Roses are red, violets are blue
I didn't know what galentines day was, but now I do!
Thank you for educating me, I love polish and you!
You're Awesome!! RTR !!
Honestly I don't have a specific one - I'm very new here and haven't had time to reallllly crave anything yet. I guess any Doctor Who themed polish would be great :)
In my free time I play with polishes, makeup, and obsess over bras (/r/abrathatfits!). I love to read, sci-fi/fantasy mostly. I snuggle with my two kittycats and watch way too much Netflix and On Demand with my husband and our families and friends.
To relax, well.. I'm a comfort eater heh. Also just vegging out in front of the tv is relaxing for me, especially with a kitty curled up with me.
Cats.. I collect cats! lol I want a few more, but my husband might divorce me. I honestly don't collect much (besides makeup/nail polish/bras) - too many knickknacks require too much housework, of which I am not a fan.
Right now I'm collecting and figuring out what I like/what looks good on me. I need to learn how to do designs and would like to start stamping and things like that.. I'd love to try anything you think I should (Not So Much On The Pastels Though). Edit: I was looking through posts and realized that while glitter with shapes (stars/moons/etc) are adorable, they would NOT work for me.
Anything but peanut butter ones. I love chocolate, and I love peanut butter, but for some reason can't stand the two together :) BLASPHEMY!
I would Love to get some gently-used Indie polishes - I want to try as many Indies as I can!
A poem for chelseycheckers
A lover of words
of prose
of rhetoric?
Dear chelseycheckers
There is such a depth
To well written
Composition meticulous
To let flow our
Thoughts into warm rivers
Of words that flow into
A novel ocean
A lost art
For which we both
Do admire.
I think I've done a poem for one of your contests before, so that's what this poem is about. I figured you really loved poems. LOL. If not... well then... enjoy it anyways! Writing is something that I don't do near enough! I think there is something lovely in this medium. So it goes on the list of other things I want to do but never have time for...
Happy Galentine's Day!!! I can't get enough holos seriously.
I would love Literary Lacquer Pan Galactic Gargle Blaster! (that's quite a mouthful hehe)
I'm awful at poems but here.
Roses are red,
Violets are blue,
We all agree polish is great,
And that you are too!
Thanks for the gauntlet! <3
I would love different dimension I only have ice for you.
Polishes are red, Polishes are blue. There's no such thing, as too much polish for you!
Awww congrats on the rats! They're super cute. When my brother and I were little, we had mice... but I've heard almost unanimously that rats are much more sociable and better pets. :3 I'd seriously consider getting a couple as pets, if I had my own place and if I wasn't already a cat lady in training...
As for polish, how about PB & J? It's a gorgeous purple jelly with gold sparkles... and really looks like peanut butter and jelly in a manicure!
We both need Darling Diva's Little Red Corvette! I see it on your wishlist, and I know it's been on my registry for quite some time. It looks like one of those flashy reds that would make all the guys (or just our significant others, because that would be best) drop their pants :D
no no no! For one, you can get it cheaper here and second, I am about to order a back up anyway. I'd probably be able to get it quicker to you than from storenvy, they ship kinda slow. Mine isn't a full bottle, probably 2/3 full. But I've been wanting a back up anyway. How long of a time frame do you have? I can probably get to the post office tomorrow after work. If you want to pm me your address.
Not quite sure what you listen to.... But I love fallen angels by black veil brides, plus Me and my broken heart by Rixton..... And sunchyme by dario g because it always makes me smile =)
And this is on my Amazon wishlist and should be around $5 =)
I use this app I found on Android . It categories them for me, plus its nice to have it on my phone. It's not perfect but its the best I've seen yet. It has pics of swatches for you. It's helped me out to remember how they look on the nail.
If you're still looking for a holy grail, I'd recommend Ain't Nobody Got Time for That by Digital Nails. It dries quickly, is super shiny, and doesn't cause shrinkage like Seche. It can be applied over wet polish just like Seche, but isn't quite as thick - I find that nice because I tend to use too much Seche sometimes and flood my sidewalls. I still normally get a bit of tip wear around the 3rd day or so (although my current mani didn't chip/wear at all until today, its 6th day), but that is unsurprising IMO because of just how much I type for work/school, and is exactly the same experience I have with Seche. I really prefer it to everything else I've tried. The only thing I still use another topcoat for is very, very heavy glitter manis (in which case I either use Glitter Food + this or Glitter Food + Seche).
It's good stuff! And she ships super fast :)
Wow! This reminds me of those black enamel bracelets so much. This looks great!
Serotonin! I can't tell you how many antidepressants I've been on over the years but I can tell you they've saved my life more than once. For that I have a special connection to Serotonin, Dopamine and Norepinephrine. Apparently I'm not the only one either as I've seen some really awesome jewelry made of them, these for example!
it's just chemistry :)
Icanhelp!
When it comes to the Seche versus Out the Door argument, I will always pick Seche. I did the big refill/Restore combo from Amazon months ago now, and it's lasted me quite a long time. The only thing is I have replaced the small bottles every so often, because I start to kill the brushes.
But I hate Out the Door. I've never had a positive experience with it. I don't know if it's just my bottle, but every time I use it it looks streaky and oily. Gross.
NOW. If you're looking for an alternative, girl, I gotchu. I absolutely swear by Ain't Nobody Got Time For That by Digital Nails. It dries super fast, no streaks, no shrinkage, and is shiny as hell. It chips a bit faster than Seche, but I also don't fuck up application with it as much as I do with Seche, so I've found it lasts longer in that regard anyway. The only downfall is that it's more expensive :(
I was so excited I ripped the package open and painted these on over my two day old nail treatment instantly. Colors are Fishy and Fierce and Must be Jelly, 3 thin coats each. Formula is good, with only minimal fishing needed for the big glitters, and they smell flippin' awesome.
I went out on the balcony to try and get some pictures, but the sun way already juuuust out of reach, so I went outside and sat on a rock in my sweatpants and hoodie just to take these pictures before the sun set. I guess this is what love feels like.
I desire this polish very much because I'm addicted to Model City.
A good thing is that I passed my Medicinal Chemistry class that I failed last year. A silly bad thing is that I haven't gotten back my Pharmacology final (another class I failed last year) and I am super nervous. I felt okay leaving the test, not good not bad, just mediocre.
Here is my baby fluffy wuffykins Toby!
The base is A England Sleeping Palace, its the sort of reddish plum color. Then I stamped the lizards from a stamping plate with Color Club Harp On It, a silver holographic polish.
The plate is VL 012 from Vivid Lacquer on Etsy. She has some amazing plates, all designed by her! The one I used is in stock right now!
Oh man that sucks. :( I have PCOS but not nearly as bad.
I'm also super scared of anything surgical (I haven't had one surgery on my 24 years here on Earth). I just don't like the fact that I can't see what they're doing. If I were awake and watching them prod me it's different. I'm the kind of person that has to watch the needle go into my skin when getting a shot or taking blood.

Good luck with everything!! Wishing you all the best. I was just talking to amber about how she jinxed us all and someone is going to get pregnant, so maybe it will be you! Think good happy thoughts! As hard as it is, stay positive! It will help!
im so sorry youre having such a hard time :( at least you have such supporting family and friends! i sure hope everything goes well and you get your chance! how about this
I've been eyeing Digital Nails Supernova!
Rinds can be red
But I like my cheese bleu.
Though I'll have any kind
If I can eat it with you!
Happy Galentine's day!
Chocolates, cards, and gifts galore,
Well, could a girl ask for more?
A stolen kiss within the shades,
All the couples have it made.
But me, I'll spend my day with you--
All on PolishGauntlet, loved ones true!
Galentine's Day, what what!
Hope your Galentine's Day is as great as Ben's butt!
I would really like this polish if I win. :) Thanks for the contest!
Roses are red
These poems are cheesy.
If you were my date,
We would get pretty sleazy.
(I saw that on twitter and loved it, hahahah)
Man Eater is pretty :s And the name makes me laugh because of V-day and how unfitting it is for me XD
ILNP My Little Glacier! because it is an amazing duochrome and I have NOTHING LIKE IT! It looks perfect for winter!
How do you feel about Minty Macaron? Or maybe you are up for a glitter bomb called Laser Tag? If you want me to submit just one, I would go with the first one.
Maui because LOOK AT THE SHIFT all my favorite colors in one beautiful polish
(plus it'll be my first indigo bananas)
I am very much obsessed with Wingdust right now.
And I know that you said you aren't into holo but everyone needs this polish in their life. It's very hard to find which is why it isn't my suggestion but seriously, it's amazing.
How do you feel about matte polishes? A great one is Mentality Tempest!! It is great! I love mentality, and free shipping! What could be better!?!?!
I've been drooling over the new Pliney the Elder from LynnBDesigns - all of her new V-day stuff is amazing but this one... ungh...
I hear that this is a great holo topcoat
We both need to spice up our mani's sometimes with a holo goodness!
Pack 3
Color block nails, super easy and you can use as many or as few colors as you like. And it works for all seasons, depending on the colors you pick.
This is my puppy princess, the bf and I are getting a cat in the next month or so, can't wait till I can post kitty pictures.
You my dear, need Washed Ashore!! It's such a pretty, light color with a bit of sparkle in it.
Btw, your Amazon wishlist makes me sin, envy envy envy!!!! I'll have to browse it when I get home later and pick out some pretty shinies!
https://www.etsy.com/listing/173271097/washed-ashore-hare-polish-hand-blended
I just happen to have a US address starting on the 19th, for about 3 weeks or so. Also I went through your wishlist and saw those pretty eyeshadows, which I might just try for myself lol.
This is gorgeous and I've had my eye on it for a while, they restock on Monday though so I'm hoping I'll manage to get my hands on it before they run out!
Also this is lovely, there's also one with smaller glitters and others with similar translucent glitters but different colors.
Happy birthday :) I think you'd like Moon Over Paradise. The orange moons are unique, and I love diamond glitter. And looking at your Etsy wishlist, dark jellies with glitter seem to match your taste.
I looove that powdery pastel shade of pink, you know the one, featured in every shabby-chic decor and ultra feminine baroque design. Something about those light pastels is just so ethereal and dreamy, it makes you want to lay back and eat macaron and wear chiffon and gold accents and feel like a princess.
I was looking for celestial/heavenly baroque/rococo themes and I found caek with a star Hope you enjoy that
Girl this is AMAZING! Congratulations!!!! I lost about 75lbs last year and kind of leveled out at.... 182! But for the past 6 months I've totally been lazy, so I love hearing about someone else's success story for motivation. Yay!! Also, you do use My Fitness Pal?
Anyway, Color Club Beyond is $7.70.
OR, if you don't mind getting a polish somewhere other than Amazon, this KBShimmer Totally Tubular mini is only $6.01 with the First Class Mail (USPS) option.
OH MYY GOD. I NEED THIS. FLAKIES. PURPLE JELLY. COLOR CLUB. ON AMAZON.
I am literally dying. I hope it is available next month when I can afford to buy more polish! New official lemming!
check out this pic. https://www.facebook.com/photo.php?fbid=498111956944574&set=a.126029184152855.34038.126027514153022&type=1&relevant_count=1&ref=nf
You can usually get Seche Vite on amazon for less than $5 a bottle. I would link for you, but I'm on mobile. Edit: i figured it out! Seche Vite Dry Fast Top Nail Coat, 0.5 Ounce
Small or medium
Crunchie
Yay! I have a deep love for MAC and Urban Decay and Benefit...
Yes! Pretty much anything. I have a Kindle but am currently reading a paperback called Thinking, Fast and Slow
Not sure for this but if people want UK things in the 45± range.. Please answer this question! :P
The app can be found here. Its really fun but I recommend paying the 1.99 to have the full version so you can share (which is a pain in the rear but totally worth it).
The recipe for the caramel corn can be found here or in any Better Home and Gardens cookbook. I recommend doubling the caramel (cause it doesnt make enough). Also turn the oven down to 275 instead of 300 and check it after 10 mins. I had to pull it out after 12 and it was starting to burn. Good luck!
Edit: Formatting issues
I'll just leave this here for you as well! I typed out a longer comment somewhere in here, but in short, I find this dries faster than Seche, doesn't cause shrinkage, and lasts just as long. I highly recommend it :)
Hiiiii!
If I understand the meaning of lemming correctly I would have to say I have only one. Spoiled by Wet'n'Wild. I used to love them so much, but now they just disappoint me time and again.
I just updated my Etsy list this morning! I have to wipe all of the drool off of the keyboard.
I do not have a spreadsheet or pintrest board with my collection, I keep everything organized in the My Polish Rack app. I can make one today though.
I am so freaking excited! I can't wait!
<3
I just caved and bought Crowstoes Cheshire the other day. I've never tried this brand, but there's quite a few fairly different glitter toppers. My glitter stock is fairly limited, but if you have particular colors or something in mnd, I may be able to mix something for you. I also have some listed on etsy.
I'm so sorry you're going through all of that! I can't imagine. What dietary changes have you had to make and what kind of workouts are you doing? I have some workout DVDs that I never really use if you'd like them or copies of them (BBX, an Insanity 30 minute workout, a few different types of yoga, and a few others).
In the meantime, I <3 Today Was a Fairytale by Different Dimension (here's my Etsy registry link).
I think you need Digital Nails - Lying. It was the first thermal AND first DN I ever got and I love it! I had sooo much fun warming and cooling my nails! I've been wanting some The Lady Varnishes for sooo long and her Bleak December (Poe's The Raven) collection is being discontinued soon! I could definitely use Loneliness Unbroken, she has so many lovely colors but this one suits me best I'd say, if only for the name!
Polish cheers ME up! Love you!
I think YOU need ILNP Blue Steel. From your wishlists I have gathered that you like blues and holos... so what could be better than a blue holo with an amazing formula???
For me....another blue holo Pretty & Polished Icy What You Did There! Why do I need it? Well a) it's being discontinued so this is my last chance but I'm on a no buy and trying to be good and stick to it!! b) They ship to Canada for a non-horrendous amount so the total with shipping is $12! c) Like the ILNP, it's blue and holo and just so pretty!
Polish cheers me up! Me too :)
Twerky you so hot I can't handle it!
:) hey there lovely. I'm totally jealous of your vacation! I could totally use one right about now, but with school starting in less than two weeks... Not gonna happen.
I love this color. :) can never have too many blues, right?!?
Or this one is pretty freaking gorgeous as well... And I only have one indie, so this would be a nice addition!
Best looking red flakie I've found it Layla Ceramic effect 53, which I managed to find two of on storenvy last night very reasonably priced. Here is the second one :D
Have you ever checked out kingdom of loathing? It's a web based game and really easy to pick up. Lots of jokes about "pop" and "nerd" cultures throughout the years, has lots of different ways to play the game, and will limit how much you can play on any given day because it's turn based (though there are other things you can do that don't take turns and will earn you more turns, etc). I've been up for a long time so I probably didn't do a good job at selling it, but I've been playing it almost every day for the past 9 years and haven't gotten tired of it yet.
I present to you... Failed adventures in stamping! I actually kinda love it :) TAKE IT aaannnd verification
You mean the Konad stamper/scraper? Or Konad polishes? Or what? Because any plates should work with any stamper/scraper or polishes. I think some have deeper impressions than others though, which makes a difference for transfer quality -- I've heard good things about MASH, iffy things about Shany and Cheeky, and I'm really happy with my Winstonia plates :)
And you should definitely get some plates! You can get individual ones from Amazon for pretty cheap if you don't want a whole set :)
Zoya - Charla, friend. Here is a swatch, since that Amazon bottle pic is a bit misleading.
flashme !
its just about 2:25am here and I need to be up at 7am and omg so tired yet i cant sleep
Congratulations on the promotion!!! That is fantastic :)
I'm pretty sure that I NEED DIS! Ta-ah! To celebrate fall!!!!
Or, if you meant something on amazon specifically, I'm pretty sure that I need these because I've been wanting to get into stamping!
Heard these were great! I also LOVE these for getting super slim, clean lines around the cuticles!
It's just liquid latex. There are a TON of indies that offer it for sale, or you can diy by buying one of these body paint products.
I'm pretty sure she bought the extras at the born pretty store.
Squee, that's exciting! :D
This is an adorable baby boy mani, stork and all!
I've been thinking about picking up Cosmic Fate for awhile, but I'm not participating in the indie exchange, so anything on a wish list is fair game.
Sure! Here it is on Amazon and Smashwords. If anyone needs an Amazon.co.uk link or something, lemme know! :)
I found it! I used the 1/16th inch tape here. And this is the pack I bought way back when it was WAY cheaper!
Um....I think you need the basics at least, then whatever strikes your fancy...I love jewels on my toes in summer, so I needed gems, there isn't one specific thing that I can think of, but I so want to try some full sheet stamping plates like these
