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: 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.
