So a few people have been asking to see my collection. Fun! though I, it can't possibly that bad! Well... I don't think there's much to say other than just to show you...
Balls. That's a lot of polish.

Pretty though, right? |
I don't really know how I feel about this. I actually counted and my brain tried to multiply that by the average cost but I'm definitely not really for that yet. I love this blog, and always want to make sure I have new and interesting things to show you. I think if I just slow down, only buy polishes I absolutely love, I think I'll be ok. In the mean time, back to the Helmer for all you lot!
On a happier note, let's take a look at some of the more unique close-ups. If there's anything in there you can see you want to see closer, just let me know in the comments.

The Verdict: I HAVE A LOT OF NAIL POLISHES AND DIDN'T THINK THROUGH HAVING TO LABEL ALL THE PHOTOS. Again, if there's something here you want to see swatched, I'd love help picking and I'll take all the close-ups you want.
Yay nail polish!
Holy balls, I hope my collection grows to be this size!
ReplyDeleteWOAH!!!!! I am so jealous of alll the indie brand polishes, they are beautiful! What are the stickers on the bottle caps for?
ReplyDeleteWow, this is impressive! I didnt saw you wrote the exact number, do you know it? just kidding ;) what can I say? girl never cant have enough polishes, I'm so jealous :D
ReplyDeleteI don't even think I want to say cos my IRL friends read this blog and I will never hear the end of it. It's 605 :0
DeleteOh my...!! *faints*
DeleteHow long have you been stashing?
In one word - WOW
ReplyDeleteWhat's with the stickey dots? I'm guessing it's some kind of organisational system? (I like to know how people organise things...)
ReplyDeleteAwesome colletion! :)

The dots were supposed to help me keep track of what I had and hadn't swatched. Red for reviewed, yellow for not reviewed, green for new and blue for duplicate but it was too hard to keep up.
DeleteAs for actually organising them, I keep them by brand in a Helmer. Now to find a way to get a second one without my bf getting all "oh y u have so many nail polishes" on me :D
Oh dear, yeah it must be impossible- I don't have anywhere near as many polishes as you and I still find it hard!
DeleteI'm thinking of getting a Helmer too- my polishes are ok in my current drawers, but I can't open more than one drawer at a time without it toppling over!
Hmm, good luck with that... I'm sure he must have an expensive hobby you can trade off with?
xGretalRabbitx
This is a crazy amount of polish! I think we, as commenters, need to rally for an online intervention.
ReplyDeleteJust kidding, this is her partner. If she doesn't ask me how much my expensive hobbies are I wont ask of hers :P
Noooo you aren't supposed to read my blog! You're supposed to see that there's a set of drawers that has an amount of nail polish in it and never ask questions!
DeleteAnd yes, this is actually my partner. Say hi to the internet now!
Oh my gosh, this is impressive!
ReplyDeleteYou have an awesome collection!
ReplyDeleteHow many do you have exactly? I didn't count. Lol. I only have about 285 right now but I keep buying even when I'm not supposed to!. OTL.
Wow !!! Wooowww!!! Great collection and really good taste in polishes!!!
ReplyDeleteLento III, Golf Socks, Paean of the Bells *SUPER DROOL*
ReplyDeleteIf you ever want to sell these, I am your girl. *hee hee*
Nice stash!
I love this post!! When I looked at the photos, I literally whispered to myself: "wow, glorious!" LOL! XD
ReplyDeleteI have an organization system too! Well I try, I put stickers on top of my untrieds so I know that those are the ones I need to try first!
ReplyDeleteOlá! Moro no Brasil, eu também amo esmaltes, e achei incrível estes gliters. Lindos!
