Nail Polish Battle 2023: Red, Brown

Barry M Cherry Pie // OPI Rhinestone Red-y // Orly Persistent Memory // Orly Stop the Clock // Orly Elysian Fields // Orly Don't be Suspicious

Choosing of the top three wasn't too hard this round;

In third Persistent Memory, a cream dark red which isn't too dark on you can tell it is still a red.

Second place was harder to choose, in the end I went for Elysian Fields. It is a very marmite shade, and I can see myself reaching for it a lot during October.

The winner is Stop the Clock, a chocolate, autumn colour shimmer polish. This won as I see myself wearing it throughout autumn rather than for one month.
