Topic Tuesday: Top Valentine Polishes for 2020

From my collection I have chosen three polishes which I think are lovely for Valentine's Day.

A England Let Me In - A deeper pink / muted red holographic polishes, something for someone who doesn't want to be completely pink and out there.

Color Club Warhol - In contrast to the last polish this one is a neon pink, definitely vivid! 

Finally, Nails Inc Cambridge Mews - this is a berry shade, not as bright as Warhol but not as muted as Let Me In. A subtle nod to Valentine's Day.

Nail Polish Battle 2016: Top 3!

Today's post is the last in this years series. You can see 2015 here, 2014 here and 2013 here. 

So the top three are Berry Looking Good, Let Me In and Clarence Avenue:

Eliminating one was quite easy, I chose to remove Clarence Avenue because as good as the brush and the formula are it just isn't special enough to win an entire years worth of nail polish battle.

The final battle between Berry Looking Good and Let Me In on the other hand was very difficult. In the end I chose for Berry Good Looking to win because that holographic effect is so spectacular. Let Me In is also a holographic finish polish but next to Berry Looking Good is a little less than breath-taking, but I do really like it a lot!

In Second Place:

Let Me In

Winner of 2016 Nail Polish Battle:

Cupcake Polish - Berry Looking Good

Nail Polish Battle 2016: Reds and Berries Polishes

Essie - Fiji // Barry M - Rose Hip // Barry M - Sugar Plum // Champneys - Pink // Barry M - Pomegranate // Essie - Shall We Chalet // Essie - Fishnet Stockings // Essie - Bahama Mama // Nails Inc - Piccadilly Circus // A England - Let Me // OPI - Let Your Love Shine

While there were a few different options to chose in this section I ended up with a Barry M, Nails Inc and A England. The first two are very much berry toned cream polishes and the last a holographic.

The winner is Let Me In, a berry holographic. It is very almost a one coater, what I like is how this is definitely a berry tone rather than leaning too far to either pink or red.
