Nail Polish: Battle of Glitters

If you would like to see which nail polishes were battling it for the Glitters last year then click here. This year the battles will only be using the new polishes I have bought since last year, which seem to be quite a lot when it comes down to glitters!

LÓreal - Confetti Top Coat | Barry M - Ruby Glitter | Leighton Denny - Razzmatazz | La Femme - Purple Glitter | Golden Rose - Jolly Jewels 115 | Sinful Colors - All About You | Essie - Cozy | Leighton Denny - I AM  DIVA | Models Own - Juicy Jules | Ciate - Magic Carpet | Essie - Leading Lady | Ciate - Enchanted Rose | La Femme - Jupiter 84 | Ciate - Glass Slipper | W7 - Boogie Nights

Nails Inc - Bow Street | Avon - Fuchsia Dazzle | Avon - Silver Plated | Technic - Carnival | Barry M - Marshmallow | Barry M - Liquorice | Barry M - Bubblegum | Barry M - Sour Apple | Barry M - Dolly Mixture | Barry M - Sequin White | Barry M - Sequin Black | Barry M - Sequin Pink

The top three from all of these glitters for me were Essie's Leading Lady, Nails Inc Bow Street and W7's Boogie Nights.

And the winner is:
Essie Leading Lady! I think this is because it is December and it is perfect for this time of year, at other times during the year I think it would change between the other two.

Nails: Monkey See, Monkey Do - Winter Sweater Nails

I saw these nails by The Nailasaurus and I really liked them, while I didn't have a little deer to stick on I just improvised with a stamped deer.
