…are very good friends indeed!
When I arrived home from vacation, I had a package waiting for me from a friend in Sweden. Little packages from Sweden are always a good thing! When I opened it up, these little beauties popped out and said, “Hello, mama!”
Yes, that’s when I peed in my pants.
I truly wish H&M would start selling their polishes in the US. They have stores here. They have some truly stupendous colors. Seriously, how hard would it be to dedicate 1 foot of counter space to sell them. I’d buy them. My friends would buy them. My friends’ friends would buy them. It would be a H&M polish party for all!
Enchantress Emma was something I don’t think I’ve seen before. Besides being a gorgeous baby blue, it was an almost jelly… with shimmer! Now do keep in mind, I wouldn’t rank this as a true jelly, it wasn’t translucent enough. But it definately was a jelly wanna be. I don’t think I own a polish with jelly attributes that shimmer like this one does.
Goddess on Stage is a holy grail purple. I know that this picture doesn’t do the color justice. But it has pink shimmers that’ll blow you socks off when you have your tips in sunshine.
My favorite Jeans is a perfect dark blue with light blue shimmers. This is another one that is fabu in sunlight. I slapped it on the very next day and wore it for almost a week without chips. Can you say “keeper”?
For all my Swedish friends: Damn you for your polish selling H&Ms but bless you for sharing. Now excuse me while I go off and do laundry – I have pants in need of washing.

I visited Sweden this summer for the first time, and was (of course) super excited to visit H&M in its natural habitat.
I walked into my first real Swedish H&M. And then: GLORIOUS NAIL POLISH!
I only picked up two so the person I was with wouldn’t think I was insane, but they’re all amazing colors. I too almost peed myself upon witnessing the glory that is the H&M brand polish.
ps, love your blog and totally gorgeous swatches!
It’s like the one perk of living in Sweden, nail polish wise. Prices are ridiculous on nail polish and makeup. You know most drug store brand polishes cost around $8-15 here?
I haven’t seen My Favourite Jeans or Goddess on Stage in the stores yet, I’ll have to keep my eyes open!
Wow so funny that you see these fit to be featured on your marv site!!!! H&M sells these in Holland too, I coincidentally got both MFJ and GOS a few months ago and reeeeeeelly like them (if only GOS had been a holo? well there’s CC Wild at heart, long live the interwebshops) and they wear very well indeed. It’s just a minor compensation for the fact that over here opi is 14 euros and essie 13, which in $$ would be what you pay for RBL in the US. However, I happily forked out the 14 to today get me Reflecting Pool(heheheh).
I agree with Marie. And our drugstore brands (make-up wise), costs as much as MAC does in the states..
OMG I love that purple!!! I want it so bad… too bad H&M doesn’t sell them over here (USA).

Goddess on Stage!!! OMG!!!
I know that we US gals take our low polish prices and our super wide brand/color selection for granted sometimes. I shudder at some of the UK and Japanese prices I hear about. So while I #&$^@*#^#@^@^@!!! about not being able to get H&M first hand, it really is weak cursing because I realize how much we actually have here.
Woaho, they really look awesome on you
Gorgeous swatches – I have all these too and I was pretty excited when I found them in H&M in the UK.
And Rose, they had holo’s there too, in different bottles – I must post my swatches of the ones I picked up
Lovely polishes on you. They are such pretty colors. It’s ridiculous that the price is so expensive for polish.
