    I've been tempted by the Technic Mermaid glitter lilly. Would you post a pic when you wear it please?

    I'm currently naked but will be wearing a very old OPI later on.

    Does the Color Club polish have a name or i/d number please, I have only tried a couple of CC but have liked them.

    I bought three of the TK Maxx Colour Club seds and none of the posishes are named or numbered. There are colours listed on the acutal packaging they don't match the varnishes.

    Grr.

    On a TKMaxx tip they now seem to have Essie trios for 05.99(unpackaged) - i didn't indulge as none of the colours appealed.

    They also had sets five Barielle polishes (9.99); there were about three/four different sets but i went for this one.

    Finally got round to trying Barry M Croc Effect tonight. I painted it on thick because I wanted big chunks (if that makes sense). I didn't think it was going to work at first, it takes a lot longer to crack than the usual crackle polishes. I like it, might try sponging my base colour next time so I can get a mottled effect.

    Wowwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwww, what base colour did you use for that pls?

    Just ordered Barry M Croc Effect but wondered what did you use as a base colour for this look? Fantastic......

    That is gorgeous. I don't usually wear colours like this but with that shimmery coat on top I would wear this.

    I've just added another coat to my current mani. Wearing $OPI I'm With Brad.

  • Thanks guys, I'm really pleased with it. I took inspiration from a blog posted earlier on in this thread. I've got all of the beetlejuice collection and they really are lovely colours and laying them like I did, certainly does give them a different twist. I particularly like this combo as it makes me feel summery, despite the constant rain!

    Even my OH likes it, and he never mentions my nails. Other than to moan about the nail varnish bottles all over the house!

    It doesn't have a name or number on it, but I think it is secret rendevous 906.
