    Thanks ZoeL,

    Have no nail glue, just Superglue, will have to invest in some as I tend to just take back broken nails but having one "shortie" when they rest are uniform is becoming a regular, annoying occurrence lately.

    Will give it a bash with the Superglue tonight to see me through. Any recommendations for nail glue peeps? Is it very expensive? :(

    Superglue works just as well as nail glue, I've got a vertical split on my little finger patched with a tea bag and superglue at the moment. That patch has been on for about 3 weeks. Water doesn't affect it.

    Just ordered 4 new MUA polishes from Superdrug as they have free delivery until the end of today. I got shades 1, 3, 6 and 16

    They are nice, I like 13 myself, I have a green thing going on at the moment.

    My LD Supermodel has been on for 24 hours and after a day at work there are still no chips. This is a minor miracle for me...:D

    So Supermodel is a kind of minky-brown colour? Looks really pretty, I'll have to look out for it. I do like the nice neutralish shades, I'm really into greys at the moment as they just seem to go with everything.

    However, I've decided on a bit of sparkle to start the week - a nice shiny Orly silver foil :) Definitely one of my favourites.

    I really like greys at the mo too. Am now wearing OPI French Quarter for your Thoughts..
    The Supermodel polish sounds similar to OPI meet me on the star ferry :) :smileyhea

    Hi Scarlett, to me meet me on the star ferry looks like a shimmery light purple. As someone else has mentioned above Supermodel is similar to OPI Over the Taupe.

    All this talk of nail polish and the fact I haven't bought any for a whole month has got me hankering. I've realised that I don't own a blue and whilst I usually buy OPI I'm thinking of getting a No.7 one from Boots as there is a 3 for 2 on at the mo and I also need some body scrub. Anyone any recommendations for a nice blue by No.7? I want something deep in colour but bright at the same time and if I was choosing from the OPI range I'd go for Russian Navy or Yoga To Get This Blue.

    Have you thought about getting the 17 Magnetised Polish in Blue? It's deep, but bright too. Plus you could just use it as a normal polish .

    I have the serena gossip girl collection on from nails inc (otherwise known as 'old vic' but I think it would work better over a lighter shade
