Summer Nail Polish Picks 2014


Welcome to my second seasonal nail polish post. I did post a winter nail polish recommendations that you can find here.
Since it is summer I decided to provide so many options because summer is the time for you to break out the colorful bright neon polishes and refrain from using the safe polishes even though I did include one that I enjoy all year round.





There are some weird cuts and we are jumps in the video but that's because this is literally my second video and I still have no clue what I'm doing so please forgive my awkwardness and there are a lot of bad takes like that this video.


I have tried my best to take pictures of the mail polishes that accurately represent the color of the nail polish. You can also refer to the font color that may be a even closer representation. But I have included some swatches and you can see that the neon polish is a matte finish. In case you were wondering the background is a body shop logo because the colors were not showing up the way I want them to when I put it against the white background.



Anyways please leave a comment below this post or in my YouTube video on which one of these are your favorite colors.

Favorite Nail Polish Shades for the Winter && Current Manicure

I wear polish all year around, except for exam time. My polish collection consists of approx 80 polishes? I have stopped directly buying polishes. But there are always some colours that I do not own. Today I was be sharing some of the polishes that I will be and have been reaching for during this winter (at least the types of polishes). 

The two main categories are jewel tones & glitters. I love jewel tones, but I never thought of wearing green polish on my nails. Then again, red and green polishes are essential for the christmas season. I am not telling to you wear both colours together, but that is up to you. The purple polish featured was a gift from my boyfriend two or three years ago. He also got me some other colours, but I like this one the best. I think he deeply regrets buying me nail polish.
Going clockwise from the pink glitter.


My current nails:

The base colour is OPI's Dulce De Leche (second row, first polish on the right) & a Asian polish layered on top from Nail Colordium (from The Face Shop) (first row, middle polish)
I will try my best to participate in Manicure Mondays in addition to my other posts!

Do you own any of these nail polishes?
