Topic Tuesday: Cheapest Vs Expensive Polish


I think my cheapest polish would be one from Poundland, and the most expensive Deborah Lippmann (although I did get it in a destash so not full price). I chose both purple glitters, I think there is a difference between these two. However not so much between average priced polishes from Boots or Superdrug and more expensive ones.

Nail Polish Battle 2022: White, Silver and Black

Today's battle is white, silver and black polishes, I don't have too many within this colour category.


Choosing my top three wasn't too difficult;


Third place is Agave a dark silver almost foil effect, it is the darkest Barry M silver.


Pudding Lane is second which is surprising as I prefer darker polishes generally. However I have reached for this polish a lot throughout 2022, I use it as a base or as in some sort of nail art.


So that leaves Liquid Vinyl as the winner, I recently wrote about this quickly becoming my most used nail polish in a Topic Tuesday post.

Nail Polish Battle 2022: Blues

Today's battle is blue polishes, and I have 11 to whittle down.


Not sure what happened to the photo of the top three, I've picked two flakies and one magnetic;


The first to go was Ecstasy, while I really like it using a magnetic takes some effort to use whereas flakies aren't so much effort.


In second place is Minty Fresh, it is a light blue base with blue metallic flakies. It is very unique within my collection.


So the winner of the blues is Stolen Flame, it is more of a blurple than a standard blue and is packed with flakies and micro holo glitters.
