Nail Polish Battle 2016: Top 3!

Today's post is the last in this years series. You can see 2015 here, 2014 here and 2013 here. 

So the top three are Berry Looking Good, Let Me In and Clarence Avenue:

Eliminating one was quite easy, I chose to remove Clarence Avenue because as good as the brush and the formula are it just isn't special enough to win an entire years worth of nail polish battle.

The final battle between Berry Looking Good and Let Me In on the other hand was very difficult. In the end I chose for Berry Good Looking to win because that holographic effect is so spectacular. Let Me In is also a holographic finish polish but next to Berry Looking Good is a little less than breath-taking, but I do really like it a lot!

In Second Place:

Let Me In

Winner of 2016 Nail Polish Battle:

Cupcake Polish - Berry Looking Good

Nail Polish Battle 2016: Purple Polishes

Over the past year the purple polishes seem to have been the colour which I have gotten the most of.

Essie - Virgin Snow // Barry M - Vintage Violet // Barry M - Berry Cosmo // Leighton Denny - Raspberry Affair // Nails Inc - Clarence Avenue // Champneys - Plum // Champneys - Mulberry // Sally Hansen - Plum Luck // W7 - Chocolate Pudding // Barry M - Nightshade // NYC - West Village

Breaking down this category was difficult, I ended up with Nails Inc, Sally Hansen and a Barry M. All are darker purple colours.

Clarence Avenue won however because Nails Inc have the best brushes in my opinion. Flat and wide with a curved cuticle which means little to no clean up with is great. This polish is clearly purple where as the other two are very dark, especially the Barry M one, it almost looks black.
