Nail Polish Battle 2015: Glitter + Indie

Nails Inc - Savoy Row // OPI - Desperately Seeking Sequins // Dark Metal Lacquer - Turn Loose The Mermaid // Dark Metal Lacquer - Night and the Silent Water // Tara's Talons - My Tangle  

In the top three of this category are;


OPI Desperately Seeking Sequins, a very sparkly glitter with holographic hex glitter and bar glitter


Tara's Talons - My Tangle. How could I not have this one, it is a custom polish the lovely Tara created for me based on a polish I had been wanting for years but could no longer find it to buy it.


However the winner is this beautiful duochrome glitter polish which looks green in the bottle but on the nails it is green, blue and purple. Turn Loose The Mermaid, gorgeous!

Nail Polish Battle 2015: Greens

Not too many green polishes this year so this round was quite easy.

Leighton Denny - Morning Dew // Leighton Denny - Dash of Lime // Barry M - Forest

Morning Dew is a classic spring green cream polish


Dash of Lime has a bit of a shimmer running though it which makes it a bit different


However, Forest has to win because it is deeper and while it is supposed to be semi matte in finish with a top coat it really comes to life. Glass flecked and almost mystical, a completely different polish.
