Nail Polish Battle 2025: Winner!

Finally today I am working out my favourite nail polish to enter my collection in 2025.

My top three were;

Rogue Happiest Day on Earth // Rogue Twinkling Vibes // Orly Light My (Camp) Fire^

In third place was Light My (Camp) Fire^, a very glowy orange shimmer polish;

Choosing between the top two was very difficult, however in second place is Twinkling Vibes a blurple base and purple, cyan and magenta flakies;

Meaning in top place, the winner is Happiest Day on Earth is a bright punchy blue polish with blue, aqua and black flakies;
