Firstly, I’m wondering how many of you got emails about both Fern and the Boo Pantomime Duo being out of stock at time of ordering from Illamasqua’s Summer Sale. I only recieved an email about Fern, offering Force as a replacment, even though I also ordered Boo for Emma. I’m wondering what that means. I haven’t got a shipping notice on either order yet so I guess time will tell. I’d be interested to know if any of you had any other items cancelled and if your stuff has shipped. But since it’s the end of another week, that can [...]

Since last week was such a rousing success (and also because my nails are still looking most craptacular), I’ve decided to dig down deep into the depths of my flickr for some more swatches for this weeks post. Hopefully I’ll have some new stuff for you next week, but knowing my luck I’ll lose my hand in a freak accident involving a wind up monkey and a meat cleaver.

I think my life is richer for having done so. But enough Indian Superman. Let’s talk about these Nubars. L to R: Sea Green, Peacock Feathers, Pleasure Dome Back when I was a nail board noob, I think these were only just reaching HTF status. I used to spend hours browsing nailgal and making wishlists and Nubar Shock polishes were always up there. I can [...]

Either I’m totally ignorant or its a case of Earth Day Marketing Fail, because I seriously didn’t have a clue. I don’t have any polish on right now, so I guess that’s kinda green? I had a bubble mailer arrive the other day with a casualty enclosed (Sally Hansen Wild Frost for those interested. Purple and irreplaceable. Me = Bummed.) and whilst I cleaned the other items of the blood of their fallen comrade, I stripped off my Illamasqua Muse mani in the process. Sadly, the desire to paint again has not surfaced. Partially because I’ve been going to bed [...]
