Last week, Hambone found a very special delivery all the way from the other side of the world!
Of course, he just wants his reward for posing so cooperatively.

(see Spot get bribed!)
I have been on a No-Buy since the beginning of November (successful so far, I might add!), but this package isn't polish I ordered- it's my first ever swap!
Natalia of the wonderful nail blog Cats-N-Nails contacted me a while ago because she had seen my Cull/Purge list, and said she had an extra Max Factor- Fantasy Fire (*dies*) which we can't get here in the States! I was so very excited to trade!
For Fantasy Fire, I traded her Orly- Bubbly Bombshell (I had a dupe) and Color Club- Worth The Risque (also had a dupey polish). I wanted to give her both since it made me so sad for them to be sitting in a drawer, perfectly good but unused!
Anyway, let's open it!
She packaged everything in such a cute way!
And included Australian candy- omigod!
Now, normally I don't eat sugar, but I had to make an exception since I have always wanted to try a Tim Tam! It was really tasty- kind of like a Kit Kat, but way better!
Next:
She included a cute Holiday card! Why didn't I think of cute things to send like this?!
The goodies:
She also threw in some polishes for use as 'underwear:' two Ulta3 polishes in gorgeous colors, as well as an N.Y.C. polish in "Gerbera." So thoughtful and totally unnecessary!
My pretties.....!
I put Fantasy Fire on immediately over what I was wearing which was Illamasqua- Cameo, and it looked amazing, but I didn't get photos. It is really an amazing layering polish, and I can't wait to try it out over different colors!
This was such a fun swap, and it's so nice to find homes for extra polishes I have that I know won't get used! Thank you so much, Natalia!
