I have over 130 different nail polish shades so this post was extremely difficult for me having to narrow it down to only five. My nail polish favourites change a lot however these particular shades I have loved for a long time. I reach for the the most all year round. I have a good variety from a dark, to neutral and even a glitter. So in no particular order lets begin..
... with a polish from Ciate. I love their nail polishes so much, I find the formula great and the application is easy. I have a load of minis as I have had two advent calendars of theirs. However my top favourite shade of theirs at the moment is 'Ferris Wheel'. It is the perfect baby blue shade for Spring and Summer.
Next up we have an absolute favourite of mine from Barry M, 'Gold Mine'. I love this shade so much, its unreal. It is an opaque black with two coats but it has chunky gold glitter running through it. I wear this shade mainly in the Autumn and Winter but I also enjoy it for a time that needs a bit of sparkle. I would highly recommend this shade.
I have a couple of colours from Nails Inc and I love the quality of their polishes. They are a bit pricey, however magazines have them as freebies a lot. In fact there are four shades to collect in the latest 'In Style' magazine. One of my favourites shades of theirs is 'Victoria' and I have had this for a couple of years now. It is the perfect deep red shade and the name sounds so classy. I feel good when I wear this colour. It looks really dark but don't feel intimidated as once applied to the nails it looks amazing.
I have another favourite from Barry M but this one is from there Gelly range. They have so many colours and they are my favourite nail polishes from Barry M. The shade I personally love is 'Rose Hip'. It is a such a great pale baby pink and the formula is so glossy. I love this colour as an everyday natural tone and looks especially good with a tan. I wear this shade a lot for job interviews as I am always unsure as to how they feel about painted nails, I can't stand having bare nails.
Last but by no means least, is one from Essie. I cannot rave about Essie nail polishes enough. They are seriously my favourite brand at the moment and have been for about a year or so. I love the shade 'Master Plan'. It is a grey toned colour but has a slight warmth to it so its not a flat cool grey. I always get compliments on this shade and I wear it a lot when I'm stuck on picking a shade. I would highly recommend this shade to someone who likes sticking with neutrals on their nails.
I love doing my nails and have a couple of nail designs here on my blog. I have a galaxy nails, cat nails (not my best work to be honest) and checked nails which are the latest ones and my personal favourite, so be sure to check them out.
I also have a review up on the latest range from Barry M, the Sunset Curing nail polishes!
