Top Summer Nail Varnishes

11:42

This post does what it says on the tin (well title) it tells you all about my favourite nail polishes for this summer. 



The fabulous four! (Ew, cheesy I know).

In no particular order...

Estee Lauder Pure Colour in A13, Le Smoking
This is a beautiful red nail varnish. It's not too dark which makes it such a lovely summer colour. It doesn't chip easily and applies nicely. One coat does the trick with this varnish. It is also absolutely ideal for summer because of it's small, compact size. It's about the size of my pinky finger! Perfect for popping into your suitcase. Especially if, like me, you struggle to pack anything less than the entire contents of your bedroom. 



Barry M Gelly Hi Shine in 317, Passion Fruit
This nail varnish has been featured on my blog previously (in my Polka Dot Nails Tutorial) which proves it's a favourite of mine. I like that this varnish is quite thick. With just one coat is looks thick and smooth. And it rarely chips. It is a gorgeous coral colour, a popular colour this season.   



Barry M Gelly Hi Shine in 317, Key Lime
I absolutely love the colour of this nail varnish. Green and pink are my favourite colours so I am probably slightly bias about the colour. But, I think it's so great for spring and summer when you want something a little different from the dark colours you've been wearing all winter. The quality is obviously similar to the polish above as they're the same just different shades. However, the only thing I would say is that as much as I love the colour it can look a little odd with certain clothes. For example, I wouldn't wear this colour with a red dress. Just something to be aware of! 



Topshop Nails in 304, Celestial
I bought this very recently and initially I wasn't sure about it, I thought the colour was quite cold. But, it has surprised me. This sky blue colour is a lovely polish. It's quite thin and so for a finished look it does require a couple of coats. But, it looks very pretty. I would recommend it on your toes when going for a trip to the beach. 



I hope you enjoyed hearing about my favourite nail varnishes for this summer!
 What are yours? :)

  3. I love the green and blue colours! They are just so much fun for the summer months! Unfortunately fall is coming soon, you should do a post about fall nailpolish colours. I am totally clueless about this.

  5. Don't be sorry for showing your freckles, freckles are awesome!
    I have some myself and when I was younger I hated them, but actually over the years I went from hate to love!
    Also, a lot of people envy people with freckles, so don't cover it, work it!;)

  8. I was never the biggest fan of the Barry M Gelly range if I'm honest, guess I didn't really like the finish it had. I love the colour of the Topshop nail varnish though :)
