When to buy new nail enamel????

[Rose143]

Hi All,

I'm getting bored with all my nail enamel colours, the ones that aren't Creative and I feel I need to offer my clients something new to try every so often and I have no idea where to start. Should I just pick a random bunch from Creative's catalogue (bearing in mind that I have no idea what the colours are like at all) or should I wait until Professional Beauty in September, what would you peeps do???

I was thinking the same thing hun...I am going to wait till september cos i am on a budget and there may be some special offers...xxx

If you don't want to wait until the show Rose, why not give Designer Nails a buzz and ask for the current top 10/20 colours?

Also, have a look through old threads here as we've often asked what are everyone's favourite shades and quite a few names come up over and over and then maybe make your choice from those after you have a look in the catalogue (though of course its always hard to go by the brochure colours).

I think you should wait until the show in September. There is sure to be some good deals and discount, etc.

I've just bought a shed load of new colours!

I believe I have a serious problem, I can't help myself!!!!!
I'd probably wait til the show too hun! They normally do good offers and the polish never looks the same in a catalouge as it does when you actually paint it!!!

I feel the same Angie, as I have saved up only so much for the show, I don't want to go and burn my money on just any colours!! I spend enough as it is!

Hi Balloo,

Thanks for that, I did check through other threads but it was mostly, Negligee, Moonlight and Roses, Cream puff, the usual favourites so it didn't help much.

I think I will wait for the show actually, Chris has a point, they might have some special offers on again like they did the last time.

Okay Rose, well go along with a rough list of colours you're interested in (or current best-sellers shades) and then check them out at the show. Hopefully this will stop you going too wild (though I take my hat off to you if you can behave yourself that well, cos I know I'm notoriously bad for buying anything up that happens to be in my line of vision at the time!).

PMSL!!! You crack me up!!! Thanks for the good idea balloo, I'll do that, I'll make a list, I also have waxing stuff to buy because I'm doing a waxing course in September as well so I do have to try and behave myself or at least Pretend!!!!

With a bit of luck, Creative's new collection, Exhibit, will be launched as these colours sound yummy:

Still Life - deep burnt sienna creme
Nail Noir - deep raisin creme
Enamel on Canvass - fuchsia creme
Limited Edition - burgundy creme
NFS - deep teal creme
Work of Art - bright vermilion

Delish :lick: . Hope they are arriving for the show.

Acton had 15% of all enamels yesterday as part of their Summer Sizzlers, not sure how long the promotion is running for but it will save you a bit if you're determined to spend some :wink2:

Give them a call 0208 896 2424

Sounds funny but I sometimes uses Ebay as a colour chart. Often people are selling polishes and they include a photo of the bottle and sometimes an imnage of a nail painted with that colour.
If you can't get to see colours in person it's sometimes the next best thing, although nothing beats seeing it painted on a nail, with the proper base colour of the natural nail behind it.

 

[Rose143]

That's a brilliant idea Bimbogeri I've used that method before too but just haven't seen anything lately that really grabs me. I saw some colours on ebay a while back and phoned Creative to order, they were lovely!
