Nail Polish Battle 2018: Blue

Avon - Sapphired Up // Nails Inc - The Mane Attraction // Danglefoot Polish - The First Avenger (H) // Danglefoot Polish - Paleon-Holo-Gist // Danglefoot Polish - Magneto // Danglefoot Polish - Oh Plesiosaur

My top three polishes were;


Avon - Sapphired Up is a straight up blue polish, great for nautical themed nail art.


Danglefoot Polish - Magneto, is a magnetic navy polish with holographic particles. When you use the magnet on it the polish changes to a lighter blue shade. This is great for easy galaxy themed nails.


And the winner is Danglefoot Polish - Oh Plesiosaur, which isn't a blue however it ended up in this pile because it is a Danglefoot. I like this one because it is a very holographic dark grey, charcoal polish.

Nail Polish Battle 2018: Purple

Ten new purple polishes this past year!

Born Pretty Store - Tender // Nails Inc - Shake That Tail // Barry M - Rhubarb // A England - The Most Happy // Avon - Purplelicious // Nails Inc - Hot To Trot // Nails Inc - Rainbow Hooves // OPI - Wanna Wrap? // OPI - Black Cherry Chutney // OPI - Holidazed Over You

First was the task of picking my top three;


Barry M - Rhubarb is a beautiful berry shade, a warm toned purple, the brush is flat, wide and rounded at cuticle which is my preferred brush type.


Avon - Purplelicious is a cool toned purple, exactly what you would want from a purple shade.


The winner however is Nails Inc - Rainbow Hooves, a dark purple glitter shade. Something which is really nice for the winter months.

Nail Polish Battle 2018: Green

Another day another polish battle, and this time it is the turn of my green polishes.

Barry M - Spearmint // Barry M - Matcha // A England - Puck a Fairy // A England - Catherine Howard // Born Pretty Store - Taj Mahal

Whittling down to my top three wasn't too hard for this round;


A England - Puck a Fairy is a stunning, vivid aqua colour. Really quite a statement polish and one which I would wear as is which is quite something!


A England - Catherine Howard is also a holographic green polish, this one is more muted than Puck a Fairy. But still a nice holographic green.


And the winner of this round is, Born Pretty Store - Taj Mahal. This is a super shifty duochrome polish, very strong colour change from purple to green. Can't stop looking at my nails when I wear this one.
