  • Thanks for the links for the marbling. Will take a more in detail look later on.

    Question, do only a few poundlands stock nail varnish? I've been to two different stores in two different towns and neither stock varnishes!!!!! Gutted.

    Is the holographic a proper linear holo or just holo glitter in a clear base? Trying to work out if it's worth me driving 15 miles out of my way to go to a bodycare on the offchance that they have it :D

    Here's a picture I found on another forum showing a comparison between the Technic one and GOSH 549... http://i39.tinypic.com/t8lufr.jpg

    Doesn't seem to be terribly holographic but is probably a nice silver with a little bit of holo.

    I WANT!!!

    WOW were did you get those from? please, please tell me!!

    I can't even pick a favourite from the pics you posted because I want them all!!

    Having a nail disaster today :mad: Revlon Dreamer is rubbish and after 2 coats I could tell another coat wouldn't fix it. Finished doing the BarryM pinky colour then chipped 3 chunks off!! Now onto Rimmel Pompous but I hate the silly wide brush. Will give it another coat and it's staying on now and I don't care lol.

    Melonade, I've had a rubbish couple of days with the polish too . Had 3 on since yesterday all smudging + chipping . Left todays on and covered it with black crackle to hide the mess. Wondering whether it's the heat making it slow to dry even tho' I've used a topcoat .

    I think you might be right about the heat. I thought sitting in the garden for 10 minutes would bake it but tbh it just made it really goopy and melty :(

    Ahh I'd moan about the weather but I just can't because it's sooo gorgeous atm :cool:

    OK I'm back for a moan lol.

    I'm not sure if this happens to anyone else but it drives me insane...

    I am right handed so my left hand nails are always easy to do. BUT the problem I have is that the nails on my right hand always look a shade lighter. I can never get a nice coat on them and usually have some patches or brush marks.

    Any tips for nice smooth polish on my right hand pleeeeease I'm begging :o

    I don't think it's that holo at all really - it's not glitter, it looks kind of like a grey polish but with a bit of a 'sheen'. However, it was only £1.99 so I'm not moaning :)
