Nail Polish Battle 2014: Pink + Purple

Not nearly enough purples have came my way this year!

 Leighton Denny - Pillow Talk // Leighton Denny - Crushed Grape // Barry M - Bikini // OPI - Do You Have This Color in Stock-Holm? // W7 - Purple Rain

Firstly I chose my two favourites from this section, both of these are gorgeous cream colours. Bikini is the lighter of the two, and has cute limited edition packaging.

The winner has to be the OPI, a beautiful colour which translates two or three shades lighter on the nail than in the bottle. I prefer darker purples.
