Nails: Top 5 Autumn / Fall Polishes 2021

As autumn arrives today I thought I would share my top five autumn / fall nail polishes.
I have done similar posts in 2020201920182017201620152014, and 2013.

A England - Gloriana // Aj Nails - Venus // Barry M - Matcha // Barry M - Espresso // ILNP - Eclipse

A England Gloriana is a metallic rust orange shade which reminds me of autumnal leaves.


Aj Nails Venus a polish which is new to my collection but it is a duochrome polish shifting between bronze and gold with a slight green shift.


Barry M Matcha is a army green cream polish which is nice for autumnal skittle nails.


Barry M Espresso, another new to my collection polish. Espresso is a dark brown cream polish, you can tell it is a brown and not black on the nails which is nice.


ILNP Eclipse, one of the first red to black shifting polishes from late 2020. Dark and shifty, something which is distracting watching the shifts on the nails.

Topic Tuesday: Favourite Sheer / Jelly


I don't like sheer polishes on myself, but from within my collection I think Danglefoot Cyclops is my favourite jelly finish.

Topic Tuesday: Brands You Want to Try in 2021 - Update


In January I said I would like to try more Danglefoot, ILNP and Fancy Gloss this year.

Danglefoot is on hiatus because of maternity leave so I haven't bought anything from them this year.

I have two new ILNP, Black Orchid and Funshine Smoothie.

As for Fancy Gloss I have a black clear thermal from them which will be good for peek-a-boo style Halloween nails.

Stamping Plate: Born Pretty - L099

I bought this plate in 2018 and thought I had already reviewed it. It came backed with white plastic which means no cuts from sharp edges, also protected by a blue sticker. It may have also came in a cardboard slip but I forgot as it was three years since I bought it.


It is rectangle and designed for longer nails which works well for me. I have found all of the images stamped across well in the various nail art I've done with the plate.
