    Are those natural nails or falsies?

    Falsies this time. I have quite short nails naturally so would only be able to fit about three gems on them and three colours does not make a rainbow!

    That looks great, love the colours. Welcome to the thread. We're all cheapo polish lovers as well. Technic Mermaid and Carnival are firm favourites, so watch out for them when you go back to Body care. You should pick up loads of tips about stamping while you're catching up on this thread. Loads of good videos on YouTube about stamping too.

    Shoppingaddict...glad to hear your party went well. Hope our OH is OK now. Sore head this morning?
  • Hey Starry. He's ok just feels a bit tired and irritable now. Thanks x

    Normal nail service shall resume tomorrow!!!

    Morning ladies! Party last night! Was a good night until we got home and OH collapsed in pain. 6 hours in a&e later we are home. Everything ok thankfully but bloody scary!!!

    Oh hope he's ok!

    My OH has just gone back to work after being extremely ill (hence my absence a little from this thread). Long story but he was being treated for Legionnaires Disease (we're in Stoke and had been exposed to the outbreak). Very worrying time but thankfully he's ok now.

    Get well soon Mr Shoppingaddict!

    Can I join the club with the ill OH aswell?

    Mine is suffering awfully with anxiety issues, and whilst he is much better then last 3 months have been dreadful. I am so grateful there is a bit of light at the end of the tunnel!

    As for today. I have done galaxy nails. I think they are quite pretty.

    Would suggest everyone buys Kiko polishes though, they are well fabby.

    Aldi are doing some lacura nail products this Sunday including a Nail Tonic Oil I fancy trying for £1.99
    Bought some of this today, obviously too early to tell but it seems nice, it has jojoba oil, lemon oil & vitamin E incase anyone is interested.

  • Thanks everyone. He's ok and managed to eat now.

  • Just finished a pretty pale peach with white polka dots home-mani. I'm so into polka dots at the moment. Anyone else? So far I'd tried making the dots with tooth picks (dots uneven and too small), nail art brush (not rounded dots) and struck the perfect size and even shape with the bobbly end of a kirby grip.

    p.s. my OH snoring but in good health!
