Same Prompt One Decade Later Nails: 2000's

Today I am sharing my of the prompt 'inspired by 2000's' a decade on from the original which you can see here. These nails seemed to be a popular design from the early 2000's.

Nail Polish Battle 2023: Blue

There were eight new polishes in this category in 2023;

Barry M Berry Parfait // OPI The Pearl of Your Dreams // Orly Written in the Stars // Orly Rinse and Repeat // Barry M Blue Guava // Barry M Forget Me Not // Barry M Cornflower // Rogue A Little Dark and a Little Gloomy

Choosing my top three wasn't too hard;

Cornflower comes third, it is a nice mid blue cream polish. I like how deep it is without being too dark.

Blue Guava was from the summer release, I like how bright blue this cream is.

And so in first place is Written in the Stars, which is a light icy blue shimmer polish. I think snowflakes would look good over this.
