impyORLY, I am not impressed. I snatched a bunch of the Disney Villains polishes when work finally clearanced them out (1.74 a bottle for the singles is nothing to sneeze at, and the two packs were two-something) and I've tried two colors so far. I'll admit that whatever I do to my basecoat/topcoat combo means it basically turns all polish into Tinker Bell polish (y'know, peel off?) after maybe three or four days, but sometimes it'll stick around for a week. Yeah, Sinister Sea Witch peeled off in less than 24 hours. Which is a shame because it's such a strangely beautiful color. But it's chipping like a mofo and peeled right off one of the nails. One of the purples I snagged (Evil Queen's? Maleficent's?) chipped pretty badly, too, but it lasted longer than one day.
Now, for a polish that won't flippin' quit, the Sally Hansen Gel polishes are pretty damn stubborn. They chipped a bit after three days, but day one was truck day so the fact that the color didn't chip then and there was impressive. I need to remove the rest on my right hand because it's just not cute. Sadly, since they say not to use a base coat, my nails have been stained green. :/ Not cute.
Toy wise, Great Scarrier Reef Toralei is adorable. You have to assemble her tail, but she's much easier to move around than Sirena, who is thrilled to have fishy friends. She's already demanding that Frankie and Lagoona visit ASAP. But I must be good and buy things for other people, not just myself.
