This is my nail polish collection as of the month of February 2011.
I didn't know how to categorize everything so I started grouping them by brand but I know some nail polishes I just have a few of so I just group those miscellaneous together. Linda said I didn't need any names, but I would be frustrated to see a color I really liked and not know what it is so I took the time and went through the shades for you gals. I'm sure you can assume the brand by enlarging the photo but if not just shoot me an email!

I know I have tons of nail polishes and I'm not gonna lie, some I have not even used. I don't really like to buy the full size since I do only wear them about 3x max so that's why you see the mini sizes.
All the China Glazes are bought from an online retailer so don't worry, I didn't spend too much money on them. OPI ones are from Ulta that I had a free coupon for so I never really paid for those anyway. (Plus, I don't like OPI especially because of their new "pro" brush. It's a pain in the ass for me to use.) Unfortunately, I did pay for those Essie polishes but only during their sales at Ulta. Most of the Sephora by OPI I have are minis, but out of the full size ones I've only paid for the sparkly gold one and even then I got it on sale, lol. I paid for all the miscellaneous polishes since they are mainly drugstore and Orgasm came in a set.
I did buy the MAC polishes at full price but I would only buy one or two at a time so that doesn't seem like such a plunge. I am a FAN of MAC formula but I know a lot of people don't like it although I don't see why. I got the Urban Decay set off of Hautelook so it only cost $20 and I only really bought it for 3 shades that I really liked from swatches I saw. I am a HUGE fan of the Illamasqua base coat!!! It's really LOVE for my nails. Seche Vite is really the only top coat I use but I do notice that it does get dull after a week from all the wear and tear I go through. Lastly, the nail striper polishes! I finally found some when I went to the dollar store so I got them to try out. I fiddled around with them but I don't think I'm cut out for nail art ~~ unfortunately.
Was this a long post?!?! I'm not sure, I think it was more for the viewing pleasure than actually reading. I'm thinking of doing another "collection" type of post. I don't think I'd be able to show everything in one go since it might crash someone's computer, LOL. Any requests??
Hope you enjoyed this post! I know it's different from what I normally post.

Love your collection. :)
ReplyDeleteI didn't count but I will count... later in the Summer. lol. It's mostly pictures so it's more of an eye candy blog post... ish. I didn't now you had Mac nail polishes. I honestly hate the Art Deco nail striper polishes (is that what you call it? I've always call it the nail design polishes. haha). It's too watery and sometimes, I hate the brushes, depends on the bottle. Some of them isn't even pigmented and I own like 5 of them (including the ones you have). There are other nail stripper polishes brands that I prefer much more but it's only being sold in nail supply stores (I think or that's where I only see them).
ReplyDeleteNice collection!! i love everything you own! :) I love that you have so many essie polishes :D
ReplyDeletenot only do i lov/totes drool over this collection, but you are sooo organized with it!! i just throw mine into a bag and then forget i have all the colors at the bottom.
ReplyDeletethanks for sharing this, now continue with the rest! If you ever want to do a nail polish haul we should do it and split the shipping cost. :) The one I really want is "Totally Fort Worth It". Of course it's sold out in stores here.
