So, that no-buy that was supposed to last through the end of June ... well, it didn't. Crashed & burned in spectacular fashion, although I suppose it could be worse. I got some more OPI Shatters
& one from the Pirates of the Caribbean collection at Ulta:

Then I happened into an Icing:
Top: Matte Smoke Screen, Chartruesly Yours, Mood Swing Stormy/Serene. Bottom: Golden Touch, Green with Envy, Starlight, Epic Winning, Birds of Paradise.
Here's the vid:
I'm going to attempt & go back to being on a no-buy again... but then again, when do those metallic China Glaze Crackles come out? =) Thanks for reading.

Icing has fast become one of my favourite places to get polishes. I like the price, I like the colours, and I like the formulas. :)
ReplyDeleteNo buys are HARD!
I was on a no buy for June but I was on the hunt for black glitter polish. Not black with silver or colored glitter but actual black glitter. I found Nicole Pitch Black on ebay but it would have been $20 with shipping! So, because I was ticked off over this, I bought 2 Nfu-Oh flakes for $25 and free shipping! I am going to attempt no buy again for June because the metallic crackles are out in July I believe lol!
ReplyDeleteHey Colette, Have you heard about the burst crackle. Its available on trans design. Let me know, I just ordered them but I live in Canada so it will be a lil while before I get my hands on them. lol
ReplyDeletehaha I always tell myself that I wouldn't buy nailpolish..but that never lasts. hehe but ohhh so jealous that you got the OPI shatter polishes!!
ReplyDeleteDo you have any new ideas for doing a 4th of July inspired nail with the crackle/shatter polishes? I loved the water marble red, white, and blue, but I haven't mastered the technique yet. Any ideas would be appreciated.
ReplyDeleteI believe Pure Ice has a line of crackle polishes. I Saw a bunch at my Walgreens a few days ago, so if you're interested in more crackles you can give it a shot! They had a lot of fun colors too!
ReplyDeleteThe new Crackles are supposed to be out next month I can't wait!!!
ReplyDeleteFirst, I LOVE your blog!
ReplyDeleteI just wanted to say that I have the Icing Mood Polish you just purchased. It did take 4 coats to get it to the way I like it to look and of course I used Seche top coat, it has become one of my favorite colors I think you are going to really like it once you wear it (beware even at 4 coats and the seche it still chips easy).
And if I may be so bold to answer anonymous- I just got the Pure Ice Crackles the other day and I found mine at Walgreens so they are already in the wild (I live in Southern California if that helps) Have not used them yet but I liked the colors.
You might as well give it up. lol
ReplyDeleteI need to find an Icing store next time I am in the Valley. I think that there is one at Arrowhead Town Centre. Haven't been in that mall for a while. Time to pay it a visit, methinks. :)
So weird, I literally just bought Red Shatter yesterday!

ReplyDeleteI went out and bought Epic Winning after I saw it on your blog. My room mate and I both love it. It truly is an epic win!
ReplyDeleteI need to go on a no buy, how funny that I have the exact same situation as Lucy, just had a root canal and paid for a crown. Its really hard though cause I just discovered Nfu oh flakies and really wanna try their holos now :( :(
