    I have used loads, the best for me were Burts Bees and Elizabeth Arden 8 hour cream, but, don't laugh! I have just ordered Lansinoh Sore Nipple Cream - which the MUA nail board girls are raving about - multi tasking or what?;)

    I will keep you posted - cuticle use only.

    Cheers! I will be interested to hear whether the nipple cream works!

    I made the mistake of going into Superdrug in my lunch hour and ended up buying four of the new MUA Love Hearts nail varnishes. They were only £2 each, but still!

    Starrystarry That colour looks lovely!

    Elisebutt65 Yours look so cool!

    Tokkiandoliver I love the splatter design!

    I also have a nail blog which I've just started, so won't share the link just yet!!

    I find my nail polish usually chips within a day, whether I use top coat or not. I think that's more because at work I'm constantly dealing with keyrings and covers and allsorts; they don't really have much of a chance!

    Mine are kept in a combination of a set of plastic drawers I got from Wilkinsons, and makeup bags with pouches. I'd like one of the wall racks, but I'm worried I'd give myself a heart attack if I saw them all together :rotfl:

    Finally on a PC so got the last few days nails (oldest first):

    A England Ascalon

    I'm totally in love with Ascalon, it's my first proper holo I think *looks dreamy* :)
    I've got ascalon on today it's beautiful isn't it. if you like holos (i am slightly obsessed!) have a look on ebay for some of the china glaze omg or kaleidoscope collections, they rock (and dry within seconds it's mad!).
    I daren't count my polishes, I probably have over 200. I'd say my favourite brand is probably china glaze, great colours and reasonable prices. I do also love A England though, the colours are amazing and it goes on really well too.
    I traipsed into town with the husband and baby last saturday to check out poundland in the hope they had some of the sally hansen hd polishes in cos I love duochromes and there were none :-( Probably a good thing really as I think the mr will go a bit bonkers if I buy any more. I think I might have to get a few of the china glaze eye candy collection pretty soon though, blonde bombshell, material girl and some like it haute make me squeal a little bit!

    Where do you buy them? I have a couple I got on ebay, but they weren't cheap. The shops near me are useless, they only have the mainstream cosmetic brands.
  • Do you have a Sally's beauty supplies shop near you? I get them there. I used to think they were trade only but they're open to the public too. I also get them from ebay, there's a seller I tend to use in america as even with postage, if you're buying a few, it works out pretty cheap. That's where I tend to get the non-current collections from. Not sure if I'm allowed to mention specific sellers on here?

  • Already have the pink one!

    I'm wearing a nice silver colour now. I got it for Christmas as a gift set of 5 polishes - Wilko's Edge range.
  • I had a sort through all of my polishes today and have stored them in smaller boxes (glossy boxes) 169 in total, not including the ones on their way from QVC, which I actually think isn't too bad!

    I seem to have been bitten by the nail polish bug again, but as long as I'm using them I don't mind too much. I really have to have some A England ones, I'm not interested in any other brands collections at the moment so thats good at least!
