Nails: Top 5 Autumn / Fall Polishes 2018

Autumn is almost upon us and so thought I would share my top five autumn / fall nail polishes. I have done similar posts in 2017, 2016, 2015, 2014, and 2013.

Danglefoot Polish - Oh Plesiosaur, is a dark grey holographic polish which I have chosen as a final hurrah to summer. If we are lucky autumn will still have some sunlight for us and so making Plesiosaur show off it's beautiful holographic finish.

The second polish is Sinful Colors - Courtney Orange which is the only shimmer polish I have picked. It is quite a in your face type of orange but I think it works for this time of year as all the leaves begin to turn and change colour.

Thirdly is Barry M - Vintage Violet, a dusty lilac colour, something purple but more muted, verging on dark but not quite.

The forth pick is A England - Briarwood, which is a dark polish. Quite similar to autumnal leaves but holographic which is a different twist on a maroon shade.

The final polish I chose was Nails Inc - Piccadilly Circus. A warm berry shade which is a nice autumn way to wear a pink polish. It is a little bit deeper than it is showing in the photo below.

Here are my top five nail polish for autumn 2016, if you are interested you can see the 2016 version, 2015 version, 2014 version and 2013 version.

Hare - Midummers Midnight // Leighton Denny - Blueberry Bloom // A England - Gloriana // Nails Inc - Hyde Park Court // Laquerlicious - Burnt Marshmallow

First up is Hare Polish Midsummers Midnight, this is a glitter which can be layered up or worn as a topper. It is a deep purple and green glitter polish in a blackened base. This is good for Halloween, I imagine that any purple or dark glitter would work well for this time of year.

Second is Leighton Denny Blueberry Bloom, a deep maroon shimmer type polish. It is dark with a twist so not as harsh as a straight up black coloured polish. The shimmer in this really makes it stand out.

Thirdly is A England Gloriana, a beautiful burnt orange glass flecked shimmer polish. This one is perfect for autumn, as the temperature begins to drop the leaves on the tress begin to change colours and I think this reflects that season change. Great for Halloween too!

The forth polish is Nails Inc Hyde Park, a repeat from last years choices, it is a muted cameo green cremé shade. Again it is reflecting the changes in nature at this time of year.

The fifth and final polish I have chosen is Laquerlicious Burnt Marshmallow, the brand is now known as Polish M. Burnt Marshmallow is a milky white base with various sizes and shades of brown, orange and black glitter. I like this for this time of year because while it is white it is also full of darker glitters which are nice for Halloween. The colours in it do remind me of burnt marshmallows.

Have you got any favourite polishes for autumn / fall?

Nails: Top 5 Autumn / Fall Polishes 2016

Here are my top five nail polish for autumn 2016, if you are interested you can see the 2015 version, 2014 version and 2013 version.

 Sally Hansen - Carnivale 843 // OPI - Cosmo with a Twist // OPI - Liv in the Gray // Barry M - Paprika // Nails Inc - Hyde Park Court

First up is Sally Hansen's Carnivale, a cremé finish orange. Which is always a useful choice around Halloween.

On my index finger I have OPI's Cosmo with a Twist, a duochrome, a blackened, purple, blue shade. A dark enough shade which is a little special and it isn't annoying to remove like a traditional glitter.

Back with the cremé finish polishes and I have OPI Liv in the Gray, this is easier to wear than a black or some of the other autumnal shades I have chosen for this year. A dark neutral if that exists!

On my ring finger I have Barry M's Paprika, again on point for the time of year. Red tinged brown, burnt orange colour, looking deep red in some lights and light brown in others.

Finally I have Nails Inc Hyde Park Court which is quite a unique shade in my collection. It looks similar to Liv in the Gray however it is more of a khaki shade in real life. More of a neutral colour which has a nod in the direction of autumn.
