Hi!
So as promised I'm going to show you my favorite summer nail polishes. As a lot of people I tend to wear more brighter colors. I have different brands but I think that you can find most of the colors by other brands. Not all of my favorite polishes are in this post because other wise I would show you a lot of polish.
I've a total of 18 polishes, 3 are for a trend that I think will be populair the summer, one for on toe nails and the other 14 are the colors I wear a lot on my nails.
So let's start off with my 14 favorite polishes.
The first polish is by Paris Memories, the number is 230.
The color is a medium toned purple with purple/pink shimmer and a hint of blue reflects.
I love this brand, the brush is to compare to China Glaze, It's a long skinny brush. You don't need a lot of coats (this color took 2 coats) and the bottle contains 14ml .
The next color is by NYC and it's in the color East Village, I hate the coverage of this polish and the texture, it's just like water and it drips really fast so when you use this polish it will be all over the place.
On the swatch you see 4 coats.
But now over to the reason that this color is in my picks, the color is beautiful.
It's a bright turquoise with shimmer.
If you can find this color by another brand I would recommend it.
This color I bought just a few weeks ago, It's a bright sky blue.
The polish is Sky High by Rimmel.
I like Rimmel polishes, I don't love or hate it.
This took me 3 coats.
This polish is made by a lot of brands, the first brand that started making this kind of color was OPI their famous Catch Me In Your Net from last years summer collection.
Essence has made one too called Choose Me!
I have a hate/love thing with Essence because the colors are gorgeous and the pigmetation is good but after a few weeks the polish starts to get tacky.
But you can use nail polish thinner with it.
This swatch is 3 coats.
This color is one of my favorites all year round.
OPI Gargantuan Green Grape.
It looks great on pale skin tones and is really pretty.
It has no shimmer or glitter.
And is gorgeous with a white crackle over it.
3 coats.
Koh Jewel.
I'm not a big fan of this brand, for the price I would expect a lot better (14,95 euro).
I do like the brush, it's cut with an angle so you and polish better near the cuticle.
But I do love this color.
2 coats.
The next color is one of my first colors from China Glaze and one of my favorites, In The Lime Light.
The color is so bright and neon.
It does have shimmer in it and a blue tone.
Fun Fact: I named my youtube channel after this polish, InTheLimeLight05.
2 coats.
Everyone should own a yellow color, I have this color by Miss Sporty 301.
This is not my favorite color and cool toned colors look better on me but it's a fun color to use.
This will be the number one color this summer, not only for nails but also for eye make-up.
2 coats.
A coral is a must have in the summer, this on is by Essence from the Denim Wanted! collection and is called High Waist Pink (for some reason) but the color is more orange than pink.. well I don't get the name.
The brush is the same as the brushes on the Multi Demention polishes.
2 coats.
A red is always a great color, but I think that a true blood red is a bit to dark for the summer so I would go for a candy red color, it's still red but a little lighter than a normal red.
Konad Candy Red.
3 coats.
Now over to the pinks.
Every collection has got a pink, this is one of my favorite pinks and this is my second bottle of this polish, I mostly buy a polish one time and try another brand but I love this polish so much.
It's by Maybelline and the color is Fuchsia.
3 coats.
I don't know the name for this polish but it is by Claire's.
It's just a bright neon pink. I think this will look beautiful on darker skin tones, I always love bright colors on darker skin tones.
3 coats.
A nude is something that always come in handy, whether you want to wear is alone or do a french manicure.
This one is by 2B and is just a champagne nude color.
The number is 04.
2 coats.
One of the stars in the summer is ofcourse the Sun-Activated nail polishes, I have one by Blaze but I think that there are more companies that make these polishes.
This one starts with a nude color and turns into a berry color.
2 coats.
56 is 2B 04
60 is Blaze.
That is all my polish picks now over to my favorite toe nail polish.
Hema 01, I hate hate hate this color on my fingernails and wanted to throw it away but when I heared that it could look better on my toenails I just tried it and expecting to hate it but when I tried it on I loved it and I'm gonna wear this the rest of the summer, I even have it on at this moment.
3 coats.
a little overview of all of the colors.
and now over to the last part of this post,
The trend I think I will see a lot this summer.
Yes! Crackle polish, I've done a view posts with these polishes and a lot of brands has started bringing them out.
(Essence, OPI, Barry M, China Glaze, Mia Secret, Sally Hansen)
There are a view colors already so you just have to see it for you self and see which one you want to buy.
These are the color that I will use a lot this season,
I will do one for Fall/Winter.
I hope you liked it.
