Nail Polish Battle 2019: Yellow, Gold, Brown

I think today is the most eclectic of the battles!

Breaking down the eight polishes and choosing my top three was quite easy. Maxim is a neutral red holographic polish, it is quite a subtle holographic. Camden Town was the second A England polish I chose, this is quite difficult to describe, a plum brown holographic. The holographic flair in this one is stronger than Maxim.

Which of course means that the surprising winner is Butterscotch. I say surprising because this colour isn't holographic and it is a bit of an unusual shade. A 70's mustard colour, which is very unique to my collection, and having over 500 polishes now that is quite a feat!

Nail Polish Battle 2019: Grey and Black

As it is now December it is time for my annual nail polish battle. I find it interesting to look back over the year at the new polishes I have acquired and seeing which ones are my favourites.

Since last years nail polish battle I have 52 new nail polishes which is 11 less than last year. Today I am looking at grey and black ones.

OPI - Rub A Pub Pub | Revolution - Horror Show | A England - Mrs Danvers | A England - Goth | A England - Camelot | China Glaze - Liquid Leather

Choosing my top three was quite easy for this category. Rub a Pub Pub is a blue toned grey which is different to any of the other polishes in my collection. Liquid Leather is a really nice cream black polish, the formula is good. The thin brush type isn't my favourite type.

OPI - Rub A Pub Pub | A England - Goth | China Glaze - Liquid Leather

The winner of this round is going to be Goth by A England. Formula is good, the brush is flat, wide and rounded at cuticle. It is holographic and is dark but is still distinguishable from a standard black polish.
