    Evening all, Ive been lurking on here for a while, and have decided to bite the bullet - "my name is Catmom and I am a Nail Polish Addict" :o

    I have been amazed by some of the stuff Ive seen on here, and have been inspired to try something different. So, with prior apologies for raggy cuticles, wobbly lines and a poor clean-up attempt, here is a picture of my first attempt at a proper mani....

    Yes it is and yes you do (need one now). I have a Mavala matte top coat, it's ace.

    EDIT: other options if you want to order one online...China Glaze Matte Magic, Essie Matte About You, CND Super Matte.


    The Rimmell Matte polish is pretty good and super cheap (and you can get it in Boots)

    Gah.... Really should read all the posts and then i'd realise someone had said this already....
    I'm so boring, my clothes wanna keep someone else warm, someone cooler

    Nice nails, if you use the 'IMG' code in your post that should give you your pic in your post
    CC2 = £8687.86 ([STRIKE]£10000[/STRIKE] )CC1 = £0 ([STRIKE]£9983[/STRIKE] ); Reusing shopping bags savings =£5.80 vs spent £1.05.Wine is like opera. You can enjoy it even if you don't understand it and too much can give you a headache the next day J

    Hi all, am so inspired by this thread! I have come across a cheap(-ish) OPI Rainbow Connection on eBay. Is there a way of telling whether it's genuine or not?

    Once you get it there is - the main way by i know is that the brush will have OPI in raised lettering but there are a few other ways

    Thanks! Think I'll stick with the Technic dupe and know that it's not what I wanted in the first place for 1/5 of the price!
