Spenny but really good. Applies beautifully, lasts well, great colours. I recently bought Annabel Rose which is this weird fleshy colour and I love my alien fingers. I also have Melinda Green which is soooo Bunny from Big Lebowski and Miriam Mint which is a pretty summery colour. Plus the bottles are beautiful and when you buy them from Gucci directly they package it super luxuriously with little treats thrown in. My fave little luxury.

I really rate this polish! It's reasonably priced, has a great shade range, has my fave brush shape and lasts well on the nails. I've only ever used the regular shades (which are so pretty) but there's really nice metallics and chromes too.
My second recommendation would be Gucci nail polishes which are v expensive but the shades are beautiful and the finish is perfect. However insta-dri has some shades that are nearly identical with a very similar finish

My favourite nail polish is "enchanting" by Barry M which was limited edition so I don't think is available anymore but I'd highly recommend the brand for nail polish it's really shimmery and the colours are beautiful, they are really pigmented so you only have to do one coat which is lovely. The most recent nail polish I purchased is "850 bright angelite" by max factor, it takes a few coats to build up the colour but once you have it's really beautiful the colours a silvery blue with bits of purple when the light hits it.

Truly backing the lipstick economy but I have been known to splurge on J.Hannah nail polishes over the past few years (I now have 6 bottles? Like that's nearly $200AUD of nail polish!? The heCK-)
The latest and possibly last shade I've picked up is this Blue Nudes, which is a really lovely deep denim blue. I feel like J.Hannah polishes have a much thicker consistency and last longer on my nails than other brands.
I love their colour choices, the bottle design and the overall vibe of the brand - all the pomp and styling does really enhance the experience, convincing me that taking the time to do my nails is something to look forward to!

Top Recs from @caskeyc
🗓
1. Don't set an alarm and wake up naturally. Snooze for however long you want to, it's okay
2. Have breakfast. For me it's toast. Have it with butter/jam/honey and a lot of water and coffee and juice.
3. Listen to an album in full and do some puzzles until it ends. I like to stick a record on and do the nyt games (connections, then wordle, then the mini, then I'm ready for a crossword)
4. Shower and use all your best stuff. Smell great. Make your hair feel soft.
5. Wear an outfit you don't get to wear that often. I tend to wear the same thing over and over at work so I wear something a bit more fun and less practical.
6. Go outside. I live near a road with secondhand shops that are great browsing but quite tempting on a budget. To beat the temptation just look in the windows and then walk round the streets or to a green space if it's a nice day. Walk as fast or as slow as you like. Try and spot cats that might let you stroke them. See how each place you go smells different. Walk down streets that you've not been down before just because.
7. Come home and decide how much energy you have. If you have energy do an activity (I would write, play an instrument, do some art, read, play a game) if you don't then watch something from your watchlist. Saturdays feel like a good day to watch something new.
8. Cook yourself a meal. Start before you're hungry and spend ages on it. Use every pot. Listen to music. Sing whilst you wash the dishes.
9. Play! Video games, board games, internet games, card games, phone games, rearrange your plushies, embrace your inner child. Play with ideas, experiment with felt tip pens, write a limerick. Get silly with it.
10. Talk to your friends. Invite them over, call somebody up, text that person back you didn't have time to. I like to spend a good day off by myself then have a great time talking to people after I've recharged.
11. Have so much fun getting to do whatever you want you fall asleep at whatever time. Monday - Friday is about appeasing your body clock, Saturdays are for filthy pleasures like falling asleep at 3am because you were too busy flirting or reading or watching videos.
