Finally got my CG riviting from the Beauty Show last weekend, only to get another one in my JolieBox today. How is brilliant super lava-like orange a flower colour? I'll have to risk swapping it now:(

Oooh I've just googled that and it looks stunning with a matte top coat http://www.fashionpolish.com/2012/03/china-glaze-riveting-mattified.html

Thanks for the link VALM. I'n not going for it as I too only want pirouette. The blue looks nice though.

Hi again,

can anyone tell me were the best place in the UK is to buy some nice polish with BIG chunks in please? Something like dollish polish ones that's about 1/4 way down the page (green)

I tend to get mine from ebay. You can buy them from a UK stockist but they're at least four times the cost of buying from a US seller. I just received this one http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/120890933830?ssPageName=STRK:MEWNX:IT&_trksid=p3984.m1439.l2649#ht_1169wt_989 - it took about 3-4 days to get here and cost £1.22 with £3.20 p&p. This is my favourite Kleancolor chunky holo http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/KLEANCOLOR-Nail-Lacquer-KCNP48-236-Chunky-Holo-Black-/110855650878?pt=LH_DefaultDomain_0&hash=item19cf82fe3e#ht_1169wt_989

This is one of the UK sellers - http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Kleancolor-Nail-Polish-Chunky-Holo-Purple-iridescent-holographic-glitter-/290628793715?pt=UK_Health_Beauty_Nails_Manicure_Pedicure_CA&hash=item43aad37573#ht_2837wt_989 that's a huge inflation of costs considering you can buy them so cheap from the US. She's a really nice seller btw, I can't fault her customer service.

The other way of adding chunky glitters is by hand - one or two coats of polish and then pick up and place loose glitters by using a piece of blu tac rolled really thin. Finish with a coat of seche vite. Much more MSE and you can use it over all your polishes. I love love love this seller, she gets very excited about glitters too lol! http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/180866431877?ssPageName=STRK:MEWNX:IT&_trksid=p3984.m1439.l2649#ht_500wt_1004 This is a mixed pot but you can get just about every other colour too. My pot is on it's way to me :cool:

Eta: If I don't have much time or don't want to overdo the sparkly glitter, I just pop one or a few onto my ring-finger as a 'feature' nail.

I really can't decide...

I want Pirouette my Whistle - its the only Ballet Collection one i was interested in.
Sea you in Hollywood (the blue) is QVC only so i sorta want that too.
The ohers i'm not overly fussed about but its only £28 pound so not too much more for the other colours.

I'm not ordering yet as interested possibly in the auto delivery - but won't know until i see the pics when they air.

I have what seems to be a dupe for Pirouette my Whistle - http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/KLEANCOLOR-Nail-Lacquer-KCNP48-183-Bridal-Shower-/120890933682?pt=LH_DefaultDomain_0&hash=item1c25a941b2#ht_1169wt_989 It's beautiful on and I love it over a glossy black.

Just in case you didn't see my link http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/KLEANCOLOR-Nail-Lacquer-KCNP48-183-Bridal-Shower-/120890933682?pt=LH_DefaultDomain_0&hash=item1c25a941b2#ht_1169wt_989

I've googled swatches of Bridal Shower and Pirouette and they're very very similar. I love Kleancolor by the way, they apply beautifully.

I've been on the look out for a Konad M66 plate for a few weeks now. I'm too [STRIKE]tight[/STRIKE] MSE to pay £6 for one plate so I was hoping to pick up used one on ebay or something. Today I found a fauxnad M66 on bornprettystore.com for $2.69 with free worldwide shipping. Result!

They look great Tygermoth...top marks! I'm going to have a bash at it tomorrow.

Thanks tiger - is it silvery? I think I want plain white like Nubar polka dots.
