Hi, I brought all mine from Sallys, then found a website which sold all the ones I had bought, plus the WHOLE collection of glitter polishes which sallys dont sell. I was gutted as they were nearly a pound cheaper each! The site is www.venusnailsupplies.co.uk

Anyone thinking of taking on a new polish line should definitely wait until after the summer buy the bare minimum until then just to keep you going .... I would feel gutted if I had taken on a new line only to see something a gazillion times better and more exciting coming out in September. Really there is no comparison now between CG and Creative, and in September the gap will be even wider.

Well coming form CND you can be certain they are superb polishes already and have been for 25 years .

The answer to your question is, right now, NO you can't. The launch will be a surprise to all BUT those who know CND will also have complete confidence in the quality and efficacy of anything CND bring out which of course is new and improved .. otherwise there wouldn't be much point in doing it! There will be many new and special features. I can personally promise you that you will not be disappointed ... I HAVE seen and tried and I know!

I hate teasing you but that is how it has to be until September. Sorry.

Don't bother trying to find them in the U.K, just like in Sweden China Glaze is very overpriced there. I buy mine in the U.S instead at about x,x USD per bottle plus shipping of about x more USD per bottle which I think is a lot better than the English prices and way better than the Swedish prices of xxx sek/each. You have to add taxes and import fees to that though but I still save more than 50% if I buy from the U.S.

About China Glaze, I noticed that it's not a common brand in England. I think that's a shame as I find them really easy to apply (even for a clutz like me!) and they last very long as well. They also got lots of nice colours and I love that each new collection have a specific theme. China Glaze and OPI must be my top two favourite brands and I've tried lots of polishes.

I've recently switched to China Glaze and absolutely love it. It is just as good quality as OPI, great colors, goes on smooth (can't overstroke it though) and it wears just as good. And for the price you can't beat it. The main thing I really like about China Glaze is that it doesn't get thick when you have used half of it. As of yet I haven't had to use any thinner........yeaaaaaaaa!

I love China Glaze polishes too, I wouldn't say they are over priced though, for a good quality polish.

The main distributer in the UK is The Beauty Partnership, they have every colour you could think of.

Hope this helps x
