If you spot any really cheap nail art pens, the black and white cheap ones make great stamping polishes.

Haven´t seen anything like that over here....yet, nort even in the chinese shops. Some sellers on ebay charge a fortune to send stuff to Spain and stuff from China or HK quite often have Spain excluded from their post to lists.
On a market stall a couple of weeks ago managed to get a nail polish remover pen with a couple of extra nibs.

Do I need a special polish to do dots or will it have to be a stamping polish as well?

We´ve only just had a KIKI make up shop open near here, they had magnetic and crackle polishes, which you´ve had in UK forever.

Might need to send OH on a shopping expedition when he visits UK in Dec, trouble is I want to do stuff NOW!!!

Finally got a Gosh Holo in superdrug, it wasn't in the big main 1 in town but nipped into a smaller 1 on my way home, seems the 3for2 is no longer on though. I also got some gorgeous beauty uk posh polish intergalactic & a purple £3.49 each or 2 for £6. Then I went into Poundland & got a Sally Hansen Pumpkin Spice which seems a wierd 1.
can anyone recommend a good solid shiny black polish please?

Last weekend I bought three new OPIs from the Germany collection. got Deutshe Want Me Baby, Berlin There Done That and Germanicure by OPI. Have tried the Deutshe and Germanicure ones and love them both.

Is it wrong I feel a little sad that this thread dwindles so much now It was our home for so long.

Must say I hope no one feels intimidated by us though, we are nice people and it isn't all about patterns and prints and stuff. Sometimes it is just about a pretty colour

Hi there,

I tried out two shades this month - good and bad - and just wanted to share how happy i was with a MUA polish (no19) that was unexpectedly above expectations. I applied two coats of it over my nails inc base coat (green one) and used the nails inc clear top coat (not the pink looking one). It lasted for 6 days with out one chip! Great find, will check out other colours when i next visit superdrug

The not so good one was no7 stay perfect in a really bright blue... took three coats (same base and top coat) and the finish was uneven, no matter how much i tried it looked quite bad, and then of course chipped the next day. If anyone has any tips for the no7 polishes i would much appreciate it as the colour is really pretty.

Ello!
Can i join in? I've brought 4 nubar nail polishes and 2 bourjois (with my advantage card points so it doesn't count!) and can quite happily admit I'm a nail polish-aholic

Very interesting board am glad I'm not the only one who can't resist yet another nail polish. Has anyone used the Barry M "Magnetic" polish? Thought I would be adventurous the other day and bought two (well you can't just buy one can you?!) but have not had much luck getting the pattern to appear.
I followed the instructions but not sure if its the amount of polish I'm putting on.
Any ideas or suggestions would be gratefully received.:)

What works for me.
base coat
paint alll nails in the magnetic polish, leave five mins to dry.
paint each nail individually with a resonably thick layer of polish. Although it needs to be pretty thick it needs to be even otherwise the magnet will bubble the polish.
Immediatly hold the magnet over the nail and hold for aroud 5-10 seconds.
Topcoat.
