Nail Polish Battle 2019: Purple

Purple polishes seem to be a weakness of mine, have 12 polishes in this category;

OPI - Do You Lilac It? | A England - The Scent of Azaleas | A England - Angel Grace | A England - Mrs De Winter | OPI - Krona-logical Order | Superchic Lacquer - Zombie Crush | OPI - Ginger's Revenge | Primark - Wine | OPI - In The Cable Car Pool Lane | Dystopia Nail Polish - Midnight's Mirror | Nails Inc - Drty Girl | OPI - Lincoln Park After Dark

Of the 12 purple polishes it was a little bit hard to select my top three. I went for Wine which is a gel effect polish from Primark. It has a nice flat and wide brush and the colour is really perfect for autumn. The only issue I had with this one was it did stain my cuticles a bit. Second of the top three is Dystopia Midnight's Mirror, which was the last polish I got this year. This polish is a stunning duochrome that shifts from blue to purple.

Which means that Zombie Crush is the winner of this round, it was so hard to choose between this one and Midnight's Mirror. Zombie Crush is a dark purple polish with so much holographic pieces in there, the rainbow is very obvious with this one even when not in direct sunlight.

Nails: Top 5 Spring Polishes 2019

A England - Puck A Fairy // OPI - I'll Have A Gin and Tectonic // China Glaze - Werk It Honey! // Nails Inc - Regents Place // OPI - Do You Lilac It?

Today is officially the Spring equinox and so I thought now would be a good time to share my Spring 2019 nail polish picks. I have done this type of post before which you can see 2018 here, 2017 here, 2015 here and 2014 here.

A England - Puck A Fairy // OPI - I'll Have A Gin and Tectonic // China Glaze - Werk It Honey! // Nails Inc - Regents Place // OPI - Do You Lilac It?

You don't need these specific polishes, but these are the ones I reach for more during Spring. Pastel colours are mainly Spring specific, but I seem to also like a holographic pop of colour with Puck a Fairy.

A England - Puck A Fairy - A vibrant holo teal polish, great pop of colour.

OPI - I'll Have A Gin and Tectonic - A peachy nude, nice as a nail art base.

China Glaze - Werk It Honey! - Would it be a spring nail polish selection without a yellow? This one is opaque in two coats which is appreciated for a pale yellow.

Nails Inc - Regents Place - Pastel blue which leans lilac, verging on periwinkle.

OPI - Do You Lilac It? - Straight up lilac cremé polish, this one is ideal as a nail art base.
