Nail Polish Battle 2019: Blue

Rimmel - Blue Sea Star | OPI - Less is Norse | A England - Lady of Shalott | Revlon - Blackjack

Cutting one from the four wasn't too difficult, Lady of Shallot and Blackjack were quite similar but the A England has a slight purple shift as well as navy.

Rimmel - Blue Sea Star | OPI - Less is Norse | A England - Lady of Shalott

Less is Norse is a dusty cornflower blue which is nice, but the winner for me is Blue Sea Star. It is unique to my collection, its a mid toned blue, vibrant and yet somehow not in your face.

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.

  

Stamping Plate: Born Pretty Store - Texture - L002 [#47461]*

Born Pretty Texture L002 is a rectangle stamping plate with eight full nail images and 14 smaller images. It comes in a cardboard sleeve, hard plastic backed and with a protective blue film over top.

The theme for the plate is as the name suggests based around textures, leaves, feathers and fluid nail art type designs. The full nail designs are large and would cover longer length nails, 1.5cm by 2cm.

As you can see all of the images stamped across really well, including the more delicate fine lines.

And here are two designs I created using this plate;
