Nail Fanatics Round 23

[Country gal]

OPI Pink Flamenco and Ate Berries in the Canaries are different colors. Ate berries is a darker pink. I had ate berries in the canaries on my nails and pink flamenco on my toes.

Speaking of pinks, does anyone have the colors OPI Shorts Story from the Spring and the new Fall pink Pink Flamenco?

They seem like duplicates just looking at Scrangie's picture

ETA: I think I answered my own question. The pinks in the Espana line are so close in color!!

OMG, Beautiful color!:love::thud:

Since I only buy OPI, they like to trick me the the dups, but you really can't have too much pink so I'll get it but I'm guessing its PF is close to Shorts Story from the spring. I'll get it and let you know :grin:

So I got PART of my Zoya haul. They never sent an email of shipping. Do they send any email pertaining to backorder? I tried to take pictures of my haul, but the true colors and not showing up. I bought a tube of these lipgloss. :heart2: Will try to get better pics. Its rainy and dark where I live.

From the 2 Zoya orders I've done, there's no email regarding backorder. The packing slip should show a number by the items to show what shipped, and mine said BO for the things that were backordered.

I think it's time for us to do another challenge week soon. Some of us........:sekret: ladies need to step outside of our proverbial "boxes". What do yall think? Maybe the first week of November? Cause I think we are doing pink after design week, then Halloween week is coming, so that will put us around the end of the month right?

[Ronnieaj]

^^^Sounds like fun :grin:! I'll miss the weekafter pink week, cuz I'll be in Jamaica (OH JOY!!), but then Halloween, which should be oodles of fun, and I'd like to step out of my perverbial "box," especially once I figure out what that box is :lachen:.

So what is a good theme for the week of Oct. 16? Tee I added the link.

It does. I just want my polish. The 3 that are on backorder are the new glitters :sad: I just don't like being charged for something I don't have :nono:

I like the fall colors idea and the funky french. I tend to do funky french a lot.

I know I am very late with this. But wanted to share an easter egg design that I did for my 9 yr old sister.
