Nails: Top Five Winter Polishes 2025

As yesterday was Yule, the Winter Solstice signaling the start of the official winter season in the Northern Hemisphere I thought now would be a good time to share my top five winter polishes. I have done similar blog posts in previous years 2024 (here) 2023 (here), 2022 (here), 2021 (here), 2020 (here), 2019 (here), 2018 (here), 2017 (here) and 2016 (here).

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 version2014 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

 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.
