Omg, happy birthday! I didn't realise yesterday when you posted that your birthday was well, today! I was totally gonna comment to say that Lippmann Happy Birthday would be a good albeit cliched choice...

Your birthday celebration is the best and made me happy just reading!

I loved your last post btw. Finding out that someone else here is as obsessed with nail polish as I am made me happy and your coloured drawers are so awesome! I'll show you crappy cellphone photos of my current stash! (Unsolicited, but whatever...)

EEEEEEE! POLISH&hearts I see all those Essence polishes in the front and am so jealous--The polish blogs have such nice things to say about Essence and their different collections, but al we can get around here are the tiny $1 bottles in maybe 15 colors I wonder if there would be better pickins on the coasts or if it's a general issue in the US ( ... )

Awww your comment totally made my night! I love that sense of solidarity that instantly comes over you when you realise you're in the company of a fellow addict... then you start talking polish haha. It's a lot like fandom that way. I consider nail polish one of my fandoms anyway! I bore everyone. I totally checked out your nails when you posted that photo of your coffee mug but I didn't know then that you were a fellow enthusiast ( ... )

It's true, right? I think it's the one-two punch of a) SEE, I'm not crazy; there's another one out there! and b) woo-hoo! Now I get to chat about this with impunity!! It's so dangerous though--the blogs make me want Korean, Australian, Brazilian and European polishes that might start out cheap but . . . wow, shipping ^^; Clearly, the responsible thing to do is travel!

After seeing this comment, I went to look at TiNS and sooooo pretty!!! we only have some of the smaller Essence polishes, though I did see a display of these yesterday (at least the greyish/purple one, the blue one and the white one, for $2 each at an Ulta. I haven't tried them yet myself, but the swatches look nice, and they're full size bottles! Or at least much bigger than the $1 bottles. (Let me know if you like them; I'd be happy to send some your way ^_^v I am a notorious enabler ( ... )

I think that's one of my favourite pamphlets. Aiba and Jun look particularly good in that one as well ( ... )

I have wanted it for years, and I saw it on ebay for a not-ridiculous price, even with shipping, and it was a week until my birthday, and I got it. I only have that one (almost) and Scene so far, so over time, I'd like to start acquiring most of them :P ( ... )
