Nails: Top 5 Spring Polishes 2021


On Saturday it will be the Spring equinox, and so I'm sharing my Spring 2021 nail polish picks.

I have done this type of post before which you can see 2020 here2019 here2018 here2017 here2015 here and 2014 here.

You don't need these specific polishes, but these are ones that I want to reach for during Spring. I seem to have gone for all pastel polishes this year.

Rose Hip is a very light pink cream shade which is pink enough not to just look white.


Huckleberry is a light blue shade, lighter than a Tiffany blue and again blue enough to to look white.


Girls Best Friend is a light lilac cream polish good in two coats.


Alpine Snow has to be my favourite white polish, opaque in two coats which is great for a white.


Sheer Lemon is my final choice, a light yellow polish which despite its name isn't sheer.

Topic Tuesday: Least Favourite Colour and Why Buy?

Today's question is how many of your least favourite colour do you own and why do you buy them?

This was a toss up between yellow and pink, but I would wear some pinks as is so I have to say yellow is my least favourite polish colour.

Barry M - Lemon Sorbet // W7 - Sheer Lemon // China Glaze - Werk It Honey! // Barry M - Banana Split // Color Club - Almost Famous // Barry M - Mustard // Barry M - Butterscotch

I have seven yellow polishes, and I have bought them because I do use them. The lighter ones are nice for spring accents, or reverse stamping and the darker two are nice for autumn type nail art designs.

Nails: Top 5 Spring Polishes 2020

Barry M - Ocean Blue // Essie - Mint Candy Apple // Barry M - Papaya // W7 - Sheer Lemon // Barry M - Candy Floss

Today is the Spring equinox, not that it feels like a hopeful time. But Spring is here nonetheless and so I'm sharing my Spring 2020 nail polish picks. I have done this type of post before which you can see 2019 here2018 here2017 here2015 here and 2014 here.

You don't need these specific polishes, but these are ones that I want to reach for during Spring. I seem to have gone for all pastel polishes this year.

Ocean Blue is one of the newer polishes from Barry M, it is a light blue cream shade. This is very obviously a blue polish, so something to wear which is clearly not just an off white shade. Light enough though for Spring.


Essie Mint Candy Apple, this polish was THE nail polish a few years ago. This version leans green, a light mint green which as a pastel is very much a colour that screams Spring to me.


Barry M Papaya is the brightest of the polish I picked, not a vivid orange but a lighter, muted orange shade.


I don't have many yellow polishes but W7 Sheer Lemon is one of around five polishes I have. This one is a pastel polish but is clearly yellow rather than a off white shade.


Barry M Candy Floss, is a very light pink polish. This is something that screams Spring to me, very light though so perhaps something I wouldn't wear as is.
