Nails: Top 5 Autumn / Fall Polishes 2024

As autumn arrives today I thought I would share my top five autumn / fall nail polishes. Polishes I plan on wearing as autumn rolls in.
I have done similar posts in 2023202220212020201920182017201620152014, and 2013.


Orly Act of Folly is a grungy moss green, a colour which to me seems very autumnal. It was also part of Orly's autumn release last year.


Orly Rustic Root is a brick red another colour which is autumnal like one of the colours leaves turn. Again this was from autumn this year's autumn Orly release.


OPI Dutch Ya Just Love OPI this is a plum purple shade with a subtle golden shimmer. I think it was part of the summer 2012 Holland collection, but I think its more autumnal.


Rimmel Blue Sea Star is a dusty blue cream, during autumn the nights get longer and this reminds me of that. I don't know when this was released.

 

Fancy Gloss Magma is a flakie topper, the flakes are multichrome going from yellow to orange to red again very much like the leaves at this time of year.
