l bought the Rich Girl hand cream in the huge bottle and really like it. Like having the sun screen built in. It lasts a long time and works well for me. She also makes one of my favorite polishes called fashion that works well with my skin tone. I like her products but I use quite a few others too. I agree that you just need to see what works with your chemistry.

If my dog doesn't like you, neither do I.

I also bought the BIG bottle of Rich Girl 10 months ago...love it. And "fashion" is the only color I wear. Matches my skin tone perfectly and does not show chips. Hope they do not stop making it.

No matter the price it is my all time favorite pale pink.

I believe that is the one she made for Tish McVoy.

I own a few bottles of her brand. They are pretty colors and I ,like ChynnaBlue, love the bottle shape. I don't think it's worth full price. I was at TJMAXX last week and got a bottle of DL for $2...it was a box set from Nordstrom that had polish and a lipstick. The lipstick was missing g from the box so it was on clearance.The shade is "Naked" and I am wearing g it right now.It's so pretty. I got some others from HSN clearance. Its very shiny polish. I actually prefer to wear "Sinful Colors" brand. It aS top rated by consumer reports mag. It beat out even Chanel. I use Seche Vite top coat.

Never found her polish to be any better than anyone else's, her Gel Lab system was a waste of $45 for me!!!

I ordered 1 of her today specials and I returned it. It wasn't any better than other lines or worth the price. IMO, the line is just all hype and talk about which celebrities wear her polish. I'll stick to using OPI and Korres polishes.

I have taken advantage of Lippman when HSN does special pricing but honestly OPI works just as well for me.

I was not impressed with what I bought from her.

But then, I have my nails done in a salon with gel polish and pick from their assortment which is huge.

I do my toes at home but truth be told, I love Wet N Wild polishes on my toes.

I like her glitter polishes for special occasions. They stay on really well. My original purchase was her Happy Birthday (multi-colored glitter) I got on sale from HSN. Think I paid around $14 for it which is much more than I like to spend (personally love Sinful Colors which are sometimes on sale at Walgreens for 99 cents), but I had read great reviews of her polish so wanted to splurge and try it.

I signed up to get emails from her site and she often has sales on different things. Several months ago all of her glitter polishes were half off ($10) so I picked up several bottles at that time.

I purchased a set of polishes from Sephora around the holidays and I was really disappointed. I did like the red and the deep purple, but they didn't seem very special to me. I normally am an Essie and OPI girl, but I've really liked the Nails Inc products that I've tried.

The Nails Inc polishes I've tried are very pigmented so it is easy to get a really nice, full-coverage but thin, first coat. Then the second coat goes on really smoothly in just three strokes, so you are getting full coverage in just two coats of polish. I assumed the Deborah Lippman polishes would be like that or better, but only the red in my kit was comparable.

I think that Essie does the best on those nice sheer cream polishes (no streaks at all) and Nails Inc on the super saturated and pigmented creams, and OPI and Essie are my preference brands for glitter polishes. The Lippman glitter polishes in my kit were "good" but not so superior to Essie and OPI glitter polish that it is worth twice the price.

I do not regret many purchases, but I am really dissappointed that I paid $48 for that set of Lippman mini-polishes. I actually bought a 5-pack of Ellen Tracy from Marshalls around the same time for around $5.99 and those were the BOMB. So my expensive DL purchase really got to me....
