Nail Polish Battle 2023: Top Three

Below are the eight polishes which won each of their battles;

Orly Written in the Stars // Barry M Sunflower // Barry M Poinsettia // Fancy Gloss Cold Weather Blues // KbShimmer How Polarizing // Orly Metamorphosis // Orly Stop the Clock // ILNP Orbit

Some of these were easy to get ride of, especially Sunflower as its currently December and its too bright for me at the moment. While I have chosen my top three currently I'm unsure which will win.

So the top three of 2023 is;

Cold Weather Blues is a white to blue thermal with hex, micro and snowflake glitters. Such a nice winter polish and I'm hoping the thermal pigment stays alive for some time to come.

How Polarizing is a navy magnetic polish with scattered holo particles.

ILNP Orbit is a grey to red ultra multichrome polish, similar to ILNP Eclipse but grey rather than black.

Nail Polish Battle 2023: Green

Now that it's December, it's time for my annual nail polish battle. I find it interesting to look back over the year at the new polishes I have acquired and seeing which ones are my favourites.

Since last years nail polish battle I have 80 new nail polishes which is 20 less than last year. Today's battle is green polishes;

Polish Molish Meadow // Barry M Pear // Barry M Cactus // Rogue Tomorrowland // Orly Metamorphosis // Barry M Pine // Danglefoot Sassenach

Choosing my top three wasn't too difficult, interesting to see none I chose were cream finishes;

In third place is Tomorrowland, a bright green flakie with black flakes;

In second place is Sassenach which was one of my last purchases of the year. It is a very shifty duochrome going from green to purple;

Which leaves Metamorphosis as the winner of the green polishes. It is a deep green with a copper shimmer shift, something I haven't seen before unlike the previous polish;
