Topic Tuesday: Brands You'd Buy Every Colour Of?

I don't think this question is a difficult one for me to answer, if money was no object. Both brands I have dedicated pages for on my blog.

Mainstream Brand: Barry M, specifically the gelly polish range. I actually own all of these at the moment, but most likely will continue to buy new releases.

 

Indie Brand: A England, they predominantly do holographic polishes, darker ones too which I also really like.

Nails: Top 5 Spring Polishes 2020

Barry M - Ocean Blue // Essie - Mint Candy Apple // Barry M - Papaya // W7 - Sheer Lemon // Barry M - Candy Floss

Today is the Spring equinox, not that it feels like a hopeful time. But Spring is here nonetheless and so I'm sharing my Spring 2020 nail polish picks. I have done this type of post before which you can see 2019 here, 2018 here, 2017 here, 2015 here and 2014 here.

You don't need these specific polishes, but these are ones that I want to reach for during Spring. I seem to have gone for all pastel polishes this year.

Ocean Blue is one of the newer polishes from Barry M, it is a light blue cream shade. This is very obviously a blue polish, so something to wear which is clearly not just an off white shade. Light enough though for Spring.

Essie Mint Candy Apple, this polish was THE nail polish a few years ago. This version leans green, a light mint green which as a pastel is very much a colour that screams Spring to me.

Barry M Papaya is the brightest of the polish I picked, not a vivid orange but a lighter, muted orange shade.

I don't have many yellow polishes but W7 Sheer Lemon is one of around five polishes I have. This one is a pastel polish but is clearly yellow rather than a off white shade.

Barry M Candy Floss, is a very light pink polish. This is something that screams Spring to me, very light though so perhaps something I wouldn't wear as is.

Nails: St. Patrick's Day 2020

In previous years I've done St. Patrick's Day nails which you can see from 2018 here and here, 2016 here, 2015 here, 2014 here, 2013 here, 2012 here, and finally 2011 here. I'm none the wiser why I didn't do any in either 2019 or 2017!
