Nail Polish Battle: Polish of the Decade (2011 - 2021)

Since 2011 I have gone through my collection and picked out my favourite polish of each year, this post is looking back at the past winners and working out my polish of the decade. I still have all but one of the polishes, Models Own Gun Grey which I used up so excuse the dodgy photo editing!

2011 - Revlon Facets of Fuchsia

2012 - Models Own Gun Grey

2013 - A England Sleeping Palace

2014 - W7 Twilight

2015 - Kiko Violet Microglitter 255

2016 - Cupcake Berry Good Looking

2017 - A England In Robe and Crown

2018 - A England Briarwood

2019 - A England Goth

2020 - ILNP Eclipse

2021 - Danglefoot Cyclops

I looked over my polishes and chose these as the top three;

Revlon Facets of Fuchsia // A England In Robe and Crown // A England Goth

First of the three to be eliminated is Facets of Fuchsia, only because it is a glitter and I don't like removing those.

In second place is Goth, while I do really like this polish it is very dark and in standard lighting it tends to look black. Whereas in direct light you can tell it is both holographic and deep, deep purple.

 

Which means the winner of this is In Robe and Crown! This polish is similar to Goth but in all lighting you can tell it is supposed to be a dark purple, when in direct sunlight it has a beautiful holographic flair to it.
