Rimmel have a nice dark brown, but it's more bournville than buttons. Can't remember it's name though [helpful].

AnyFucker · 13/05/2013 22:37

Beanie is nice, maybe a tad dark

Nobody any ideas on where to buy Nubar on the High St ?

I'd never put up with that shit. Leave him, honey.

Oops, sorry, wrong topic!

Maybe not what you're looking for but I'm a v dark brown polish addict and the only one currently floating my boat is the cringetastically named 'Inner Vixen' by Gelish, it's a gel manicure that lasts loads longer than Shellac and glints gorgeously in any light.

Failing that, OPI have an amazing darkest brown called Cowboy something. Possibly Cowgirl something.

AnyFucker · 13/05/2013 22:44

Cowgirl ?

Inner Vixen ?

What manpleasing shite is this ?

oops, wrong topic Wink

Bourjois have an AMAZING gel type polish which goes on like a dream. They have a brown which isn't dark enough for me, it has a fancy name but I call it Parcel Tape. Seriously, it goes on in one swipe and dries v v quickly. Shiny as you like.

AnyFucker · 13/05/2013 23:25

what is this "gel type" of which you speak ?

Is brown the colour du jour?! What any farker is wearing?? I don't feel very au courant with my red nail polish now :(

WhoKnowsWhereTheTimeGoes · 14/05/2013 11:31

If you haven't been to the shops yet, I forgot something. A matt topcoat over browns gives a beautiful finish just like chocolate. Rimmel do one (assume they still do, I bought some last year).

AnyFucker · 14/05/2013 11:39

I have no idea if brown is the coloeur du jour (that spelling doesn't look right)

I just fancy some.

Matt topcoat ? Like a clear thingie ?

Off to the shops in about an hour. (oh, the social whirl ...here I come Superdrug)

If you like Particuliere, Barry M do a dupe called Mushroom, only £2.99

This website has lots of nail polishes by colour:

How about this OPI one? Think they are £8

AnyFucker · 14/05/2013 11:52

oo ta, Superdrug do Barry M so I shall scrutinise there (my provincial shopping centre may yet come good)

and if after my shopping trip I am still empty handed, I shall go hunting online, using recommendations on this thread

Why brown though AnyFucker ?

Won't you look like you've picked your bum without due care and attention Blush

Furball · 14/05/2013 19:14

She probably would if she used that brown sugar one in one of my links below Grin

HorsesDogsNails · 14/05/2013 19:19

OPI Over The Taupe or OPI Suzi Loves Cowboys - the first one is more milk chocolate the second more plain.... Grin

GelPolish is a salon service that lasts 2/3 weeks but needs salon removal I use OPI GelColor which in my opinion is the best!

AnyFucker · 14/05/2013 19:33

Would green make me look like I picked my nose ?

Red make me look like, erm...let's not go there Grin

Anyways, Marry M polishes have been flippin' recalled haven't they (as I discovered in Boots) ? How inconvenient.

I found a naice Bourgois gel one though. Smile
