Nail Polish Battle 2020: Top 3

Having completed all of the seven colour categories the following polishes won each round;

Tonic - Jinx // UberChic - If You've Got it Haunt it // Barry M - French Rose // Fancy Gloss - Magma // Danglefoot - The First Avenger // ILNP - Eclipse // UberChic - Say Boo and Scary On

Harder to chose my top three as they were all already up there in favourite tier. Jinx is a very holographic silver polish and the other two are both darker shifty duochromes.

Tonic - Jinx // Fancy Gloss - Magma // ILNP - Eclipse

  

Nail Polish Battle 2020: Blue

Barry M - Berry Sorbet // Essie - Mint Candy Apple // Barry M - Sour Candy // Barry M - Ocean Blue // Rimmel - Danny Boy Blue // A England - Skinhead // Tonic - Dragons at Dusk // Danglefoot - The First Avenger // Nail Artisan - Witching Hour

Danny Boy Blue is a true colbalt blue, quite vivid similar to the original Sally Hansen Pacific Blue or Nails Inc Baker Street. No mistaking this for black or even a white, certainly a blue.

Dragons at Dusk is a beautiful duochrome polish, changing from blue to purple, there is also some teal in there too which is nice.

Which means the winner is The First Avenger which is a beautiful metallic primarily blue but a duochrome changing to purple on different angles.

  

Nail Polish Battle 2020: Black

Rimmel - Rita's Black // Danglefoot - Higitis Figitus // Uberchic - Say Boo and Scary On // A England - The Princes in the Tower // A England - The Raven

A difficult category for me, I think the easiest one to eliminate is Rita's Black because it isn't opaque enough in one coat.

The Raven is a very dark scattered holo polish, I didn't find it as holographic as other A England polishes but it is very dark which is what you want for a black.

Second place is Higitis Figitus, the holo is very strong in this one but because it has more pigment in it the darkness of it is lessened.

Which means the winner is Say Boo and Scary On, a very dark navy holographic polish.

  

Nails: Diabetes Awareness - First Avenger

November is Diabetes Awareness Month and so every Friday to raise awareness I am doing blue nails.

Type one diabetes can be diagnosed at any age, are you aware of the four T's?

The four T's stand for Toilet, Thirsty, Tired and Thinner.
