Nail Polish: Battle of Blacks, Greys and Pinks

If you would like to see which nail polishes were battling it for the blacks, greys and pinks last year then click the colours to be taken to a new page. This year the battles will only be using the new polishes I have gotten since last year. Which is why Black, Grey and Pink have been joined as I didn't seem to have as many of these this year.

Seventeen - Rock Hard Nail Effects - Black | Claire's - Black Leather Effect | Nails Inc - New York Noir

Winner is:
Nails Inc and Kate Spade New York Noir, who could resist such a classic cream black polish

Now a couple of grey polishes
La Femme - Grey Cream | Ciate - Vintage

Winner is:
Ciate Vintage, I like this one as it is darker in tone to the La Femme.


And finally the new pinks:
La Femme - Mocha Pink | La Femme - Pink Cream | Models Own - Pink Blush | La Femme - Figg

Winner is:
La Femme Figg, reason is this is a much more dusky pink with a hint of lilac than the others. Less in your face.

Something really simple today, would have been so much better if it wasn't for the top coat (Leighton Denny Crystal Finish) smudging it!
