I THINK I might get her mini V-Day trio. Turns out to be $14 with shipping. But idk. I don't really want the glitter topper, just the other 2 pretties. She's also going to be announcing her new collection tonight!

It's time to do some researching!!
Let me know what you find out, I have a fingers that do the same thing and it's driving me nuts!!  I just did my nails Sat night and I have a huge chip in one finger on my left hand, my right thumb is completly polish free and another finger on my right hand has 95% of the polish gone....so frusterating.  And the rest of the nails are perfect, no peeling, no chips, no nothing.

I decided to not buy.  I saving any money I have for the one hour pre-order of the anniversary Scofflaw polish on the 7th.  I want to make sure I have money.

Ooh... I might need to check out that pre-order, too. I've also resisted the Love, Angeline sale - I'm tempted by her Valentine's stuff, but I have so many untrieds right now, and her shipping really starts to add up.

I'm currently working on a mani with Black Sheep Lacquer's Grey Ghost - a grey to white thermal with scattered holo. I got it in my box last month and just thought it was an awesome gray holo, then she posted it in her shop last week and that's when I found it out was a thermal, too! That's the 2nd time I've gotten a surprise thermal in one of her boxes.

So far I only own 1 Scofflaw polish and I love it.  I agree the Winter Collection is amazing!!

I realized I didn't mention it in my previous post but for those of you that don't follow her on Facebook there is a LE Valentine's Day/Anniversary polish being released one day only.  It's a pre order so there will be no worries that it will sell out however, that will be it. It's going on pre order Feb 7th at 8 pm CST.  It will be open from 8-9 CST and then no longer avail although some international distributors will get it later, I am not sure how many or what exactly that means.  If you are US based and are interested make sure you grab it on Friday!!!

Only thing I saw was blogger Tanejasbride had a blog sale mystery bag.  5 Indie-Only Mystery Bags with 4 - 5 polishes for $22. but she only had 3 left 6 hours ago (when you posted sorry I was busy working today)

Eight4 has a 5 for 25 deal on Holo Glitz whatever that is.

Got my Black Sheep Lacquer box yesterday, but I was too tired to post when I got home. We had my fiancée's grandpa's wake last night. He was a Vet, and the VFW came to pay their respects. I've never seen them do that before, it was really neat!! Any hoo, I will post pictures tonight, this months box was really good!!

KB Shimmer trio is here!!!  I can't decide which I love between Falling for Hue (the crelly) and U Rock my <3 (the glitter).  The holo is exceptional also but for me it was an added bonus!!!  It's the perfect cherry red.  I am so in love.  I only swatched so far so I will let you know after I actually wear them.  Best part is the glitter is not overly packed with glitters like Sand in My Stocking was so one coat is a nice distribution. Just enough to see the glitter but not taking over. 





Left is with flash right is without

Please tell me these were limited availability and buying them now is out of the question. Because I'm really trying to figure how I could justify a purchase even though my unemployment benefits have run out. I'm awful. Using unemployment to buy polish. But a girls gotta find some joy somewhere.

They just got released.  However, they will be offered for at least a few months possibly longer depending on demand.  The trio together is $24.00 so you save a little by getting all 3.  With my shipping I paid $26.66 total.

Don't forget if you want the LE Scofflaw anniversary/V-Day polish it's tonight 8-9 CST.  I set an alarm!

Can't wait to see photos!! I'm not home to look at mine - probably tomorrow. I call home to talk to my grandma everyday and she says, "You got a small box in today. Probably nail polish." LOL, she's learning quickly.

LOL.  That's why I wanted Crysta by Glam Polish even if it's spelled wrong, growing up I always had to buy stickers that said "Chris" and add a "TA" with sharpie.  I would snatch it up in a heartbeat if it were spelled right.  Plus Mentality is no crap brand.  What luck!!

I just ordered.  Seriously, I needed it like I need a hole in my head....but the polish has my name on it.  It's hard to find my name spelled correctly.  Can't wait til it gets here!!
