Nail Polish Collection

I love me some nail polish.

Honestly, my collection is not that big. I don't have a giant wall shelf full, i don't have even a drawer full... i have a small La Senza bag full! Woo!! 

My problem with nail polish is that i have ridiculously thin and brittle nails. They bend, peel, and tear easily. They are so soft, they actually don't even break... So! for the most part my nails suck, and i enjoy covering them!

My nails are not always painted, the are probably painted with a strengthening clear coat more than actual colours! buuuut, when i get in the mood for colour, its usually for a couple weeks straight.

I'm also very picky when it comes to colours, which i think is why i don't have many! i guess that's good since my other addictions are quite costly ( cough cough purses... ).

So here we go! I'll start by brands, and then finish with my top favourites!

Essie

Essie is probably my favourite brand. The brush is big, goes on super smooth, dries fast, has an amazing shine, and doesn't chip near as fast as other brands.

From left to right: Millionail nail hardener, peak of chic, muchi muchi, penny talk, in stitches, sole mate,glamour purse, ignite the night, beach bum blue.

OPI

OPI definitely comes in a close second as far as favourite brand. I just find that Essie dies a little faster, but other than that OPI is just as good!

From left to right: Nicole by OPI drying drops, Nicole by OPI Rainbow In The S-Kylie, Nicole by OPI Gold Texture, Panda-Monium Pink, Sephora by OPI I'm Wired, Here Today...Aragon Tomorrow, Black Shatter.

Revlon

As far as drug store brands go, its all about Revlon! So fantastic.

From left to right: Colorstay Top coat, Colorstay Base coat, Steel-her heart, Beguile, Plum night.

Randoms

And a few other randoms...

From left to right: China Glaze Winter Berry and Holly-Day, Dior Masai Red (I'm pretty sure this isn't mine... lol), and Sally Hanson Endless Claret, Snappy Sprinkles, and Flashy Fuchsia. I'm Pretty sure Ive never used the sparkles, and the hot pink is actually what i use to mark my makeup brushes... haha

Necessities

A few other things that reside in my La Senza bag...

Favourites

My favourite top and base coat duo are for sure the Revlon colour stay! The make any polish last for days without chipping and its shine is truly amazing! As far as sparkles goes, Rainbow in the S-Kylie is so colourful, so much fun, and pairs easily with many colours as an accent. Ignite the light by Essie's is the most gorgeous silver sparkles Ive ever seen. They are so opaque you can even wear them with no colour underneath, but its freaking beautiful as just an accent. The drying drops are a must have since I'm ridiculously impatient. Glamour purse is that easy grey brown colour that is so nice in the fall. Muchi Muchi is one of those all year round easy every day colours. Sole mate is my favourite for winter and its fantastic with ignite the night as an accent. I end with I'm wired by OPI because its my all time favourite colour. Its a beautiful coral pink and goes so well with my skin tone (and it pairs so nicely with Rainbow in the S-kylie as an accent!).

So that about covers it! Hope you enjoyed!!
