Nails: Top 5 Spring Polishes 2022

Barry M - Prickly Pear // Barry M - Periwinkle // Models Own - Swan // A England - Angel Grace // Barry M - Holographic Sunburst

On Sunday it will be the Spring equinox, and so I'm sharing my Spring 2022 nail polish picks.

I have done this type of post before which you can see 2021 here, 2020 here, 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 again, with a lot of purples.

Prickly Pear is a brighter pastel lilac shade, it is cream in finish and opaque in two coats.

Periwinkle is a spring offering from Barry M from earlier this year. It is a very light blue cream polish opaque in two coats.

Swan is a lilac crelly with black speckled glitters, opaque in three coats from a 2014 collection. Something very Easter appropriate about these types of polishes.

Angel Grace is a vivid holographic polish, which looks good in direct sunlight, again opaque in two coats.

Holographic Sunburst is another choice from Barry M, it is also holographic but not as vivid as Angel Grace. Looks good in direct sunlight and is opaque in two coats.

  

Topic Tuesday: Flash Reactive

Last year's battle of the polishes purchased saw Bow Blinder coming second, flash reactive is something quite new. I only have one of them and while I like how sparkly it is I don't like the removal process. Next time I wear it I want to try it as a topper and definitely using a peel off base coat. I doubt I would purchase another flash reactive one.
