Thanks to this thread I went again (even though I just ordered a couple yesterday) to see what spectraflair shades were restocked and got Peas in a Pod as a consolation prize.

Actually... that's one of the ones I would have gotten if I had decided to buy more today. That one and the blue one Adonis.

It was the only holo left so someone else snatched up Adonis pronto!

There was the red Cinnamon Hottie, the Peas one, Adonis and Squid Ink for sure when I looked.  Maybe one more.  I really debated the Cinnamon one.  Anyone who ordered that one please show me swatches when you get it. 

Also if you ever want to come visit and paint your nails with Fern Gully you are welcome to.

All in total I have 35 different Hit Polish polishes either in mini or full size.  That's more than any other indie I have by a long shot.

That sucks.  I saw she re listed some holo's and I almost got another one but decided against it.  I know I will regret it later.  Pewter Goblet is perfect. It's the exact gray I was hoping it would be and it's a spectraflair is just icing on the cake.  I will have to get a picture of Pennies From Heaven and see if I can find anything like it for you. OK I looked.  One that is a not a perfect dupe but is available and very pretty in that same way Shimmer Carmen.  I found another great match but it doesn't appear to be available anymore but she has an alternative that is nice that's Lyn B Designs Imperial Topaz (Dazzling Lights from the Fame collection was better but unless you can find a blog sale or destash it's not on her site)  Sorry none of them will be as much of a discount as that one was either. 

Wow, thank you! I'll keep an eye out for those. I recently got a few other polishes from Lyn B Designs and I'm loving them, so I wouldn't mind having an excuse to order from her again.

YAY!  I was hoping there would be something close.  Now if I can only find a match for Fern Gully for @AgathaLaupin my mission will be complete.

I love nail mail day!  I got a few more of my polishes today and I have to say so far the one I am the most impressed by is the Eighty4. 

Why you ask.... I will tell you.  I bought the thermal Candy Corn.  I didn't see many swatches online so I knew I was taking a bit of a gamble.  Boy am I glad I did.  The change in this one is unlike any other thermal I own.  It's instant.  I have all my thermals swatched on one nail wheel and when I play around with them like I do often, I have to hold my fingers over it to get it warmed up or even run them under hot water for the change to take place.  This one changed when it was pressed up against my skin and even with just a finger underneath.  The change is so perfect.  I love this and can't wait to actually put it on my fingers. 



KB Shimmer Sand in my Stocking, Pretty in Punk and Eighty4 Candy Corn



On the nail wheel cold.  Eighty4 Candy Corn, then Polished by KPT La Cantrina and Polish TBH Island Fantasy and Alice After Eight



Here is Candy Corn with just my finger underneath it.  Are you seeing this??  Amazing!  Can not wait to put this baby on.

Also... you can't really see it in my blurry photo but this has a slight holo to it also.

Hm. The closest I've found so far is maybe Literary Lacquers Green Gables?

Yay, that's exciting! I also had some awesome nail mail (with more on the way!), so I'll post soon. I got Chameleon last night and Two Moons is on the way from eighty4, so I'll swatch them and see if they also change that quickly. Lips Like Sugar from Black Sheep Lacquer also changes really quickly like that. It's fun to wear, especially when I go outside.

I received my final Hit Polish order today! 15 polishes that make me want to swoon. I did get Cinnamon Hottie, Adonis, and the Peas one; I'll swatch them for you when I get a chance, @Christa W.

I received so much nail mail, it's embarrassing. Mod Lacquer came yesterday. The day before that was Llarowe. Today was Hit Polish, eighty4, and two different packages from sellers on storenvy.

 At least everything was either on sale or I had a coupon.

The polish that I am the most excited about for the moment from all of these is My Ten Friends Dirtball, which I ordered from a seller called Polishpalooza on storenvy. I've been lemming it for a while. This photo is from etsy:

I am in love with this polish!  I want to try My Ten Friends badly.  Excited for your nail mails too!  I still have LLarowe coming Monday and Geek Chic hasn't shipped yet.

Playing around with Candy Corn and OPI Spotted

I am totally stamping a butterfly wing on this polish.

Thank you. I don't know of any polish that looks like it.  I am still expecting four packages from sellers on storenvy, another from Llarowe, and I very recently ordered some from Literary Lacquer. Hmm, maybe I should work a few hours overtime.

One of the new Scofflaw polishes is similar but toned down and doesn't have that cool of a name. I may have to check it out. The Ten Friends one is not available right?

I don't think that it's discontinued, but it's often not in stock. I think they annouce their restocks on Facebook. Femme Fatale Cosmetics is the stockist where I most recently saw it in stock. Oh, and shop-dazzled.com. Overall Beauty has a few MTF polishes available right now, but not Dirtball. This blog sale has several, but not Dirtball: http://www.thingslorihearts.com/p/blog-sale.html?m=1

Ooooh, that Green Gables looks like it would satisfy my desires! Thanks so much for pointing me to it! 

Gah, I have made like 4 polish orders this week (this thread being responsible for like 3 of them!) and told myself to cool it for a while but it looks like some of my money will be headed to Literary Lacquers today. I can't resist!

Hooray! 

I know the feeling - I've been swatching some new polishes and I have 3 other orders on the way, but I'm still itching to buy some polish. I'm trying to do a low buy until I use up some of my new polishes, but it's my birthday so I feel justified. Hmm, maybe I'll just need to pick up a Mentality polish or two...

Darn it! I just finished checking out. Oh well!

ETA: I need to get in the habit of checking fb pages for codes, I never think of it!

I am getting to this point too.  I know I have been a bad influence you guys too!  Trying to convince my boyfriend he needs to buy me polish since he hasn't given me a Christmas present yet (money went to car repairs)
