    No, but I fear it may be some time before your task is completed.

    Have a look at cosmeticsfairy.co.uk and fragrancedirect.co.uk. Well known brands at much cheaper prices.

    Thanks starry. Just had a quick look and me thinks some money may have to be spent. lol
  • I went to poundland today and nothing in at all. But then I happened to walk past a shop i'd forgotten about. It's just a local shop but they had racks and racks of polish. Was in there so long OH came in to shoo me out. After I'd bought a couple that is!!!!

    I've been Money Tipped!
    I actually have enough yellows to do an ombr! http://m.pinterest.com/pin/62346776062118380/
    But the finish is pants! They all streak!
    1/2 way through & I'm tempted to take it all off & throw them away(apart from the OPI)

    Yellow Nails.

    The Icky Yellow is Leighton Denny Yellow Brick Road (pre cleanup or topcoat as i wasn't sure if it was staying) i've then added some ChinaGlaze Electify to make it a little more paletable.

    Still can't see it lasting....
