September's Nail Polish Haul

Okay this month I may have gone a little crazy, but I couldn't help it when things are reduced to crazy prices, I just can't resist a bargain. Claire's have changed the shape of their nail polish bottles and I was lucky enough to go into the store when they were selling off all the old bottles, I pretty much grabbed one of every shade much to the amusement of the staff, I think they thought I was a little crazy, but I was super happy with my haul, especially as I got lots I'd had my eye on for a while.

I also got my first Colour Club polishes this month, one set was in the wrong packaging but I figured out the real name thanks to Google. Other exciting additions to my collection include my first A England and Gosh's Holographic Hero, I can't wait to see if it's any where near as amazing as Holographic.

Anyway, enough yapping, here's the photos...


Claire's old style bottles- Gold & Pink Holographic, Cream, Blue & Pink Sprinkles Glitter, Beige, Black Dark Red & Red Leather Effect, Silver, Beige & Green Glitter Sand, Light Blue & Dark Blue Denim Effect, Pink Glitter & Blue Crackle, five Duochromes, twenty two different glitters, six shimmers, and three cremes
Claire's new style bottles - Glitter Black/White, HG Blue Glitter, Velour, Fabulous

July's Nail polish Haul

This month I went a little crazy, buying nail polish whenever I saw something that tickled my fancy. Although I have to admit it was pretty much all down to me doing a bit of retail therapy as July was an awful month for me, I started driving buses on my own at last, which wasn't always easy when you have buses breaking down and drunks threatening you, but I can deal with all that as I was always expecting it, it just tired me out much more than I thought it would, but the biggest reason for my retail therapy is because of my beloved cat Savvy, as you might know if you read this blog regularly Savvy was diagonosed with cancer just over four months ago and sadly he passed away this month leaving a very big hole in my heart, I'm always going to miss him.

Anyway, here's the photos of my haul, as with Junes haul post I had problems with my crappy camera, so these aren't the best photos.

Gosh - Yellow Bombay

Hi guys, I'm still feeling awful after our burglary last weekend, it's really shaken me up, I'm nervous in the house all the time even with all the doors locked and I'm still really upset about losing all my photos on my laptop. So to cheer myself up I've got something sunny for you today. :-)

I thought I'd share Gosh's Yellow Bombay with you. Ages ago, when I first saw this swatched I fell in love, yellow's my favorite colour and this one looked so pretty, but I couldn't find it anywhere other than on ebay for more than I was prepared to pay. Luckily one day I was in Superdrug and they had a ton of old Gosh products in a sale bin, and in that lot was my little bottle of Yellow Bombay.

I was so happy to find it and it only cost me £2 so it was a steal! Anyway, Yellow Bombay is a gorgous bright yellow, with tiny golden flakes in it. I thought it was going to be a typical yellow polish ie a pain in the ass to apply but this went on like a dream. it was a bit on the sheer side and I hate VNL so I used 3 coats and it was perfect.

April's first nail polish haul

Picture heavy post alert!

Today I've got another haul post for you, as I went into town and checked out all the pound shops for nail polish bargains, needless to say I went home a happy little nail polish addict! :-)

I hope you don't mind haul posts, personally I love seeing what goodies fellow bloggers have found, and I'm more than happy to swatch stuff if there's any you fancy and can't find a swatch online.

I also like to show you stuff that you can get for cheap and as the pound shops change what nail polish is in stock quite often, it's good to know what's in store.

Right, enough waffling, on to the polish...
L-R Revlon No Shrinking Violet, Plum Night & Red Hot Tamale
My camera couldn't capture Red Hot Tamale, it's a bright red rather than the weird orange in this photo.
L-R Revlon Lilac Pastelle, Sunshine Sparkle & Demure
