Spring Nail Polish Picks


Spring has finally sprung here in the sunny UK (or at least it was sunny yesterday) and now that it's official, it's time to crack out those bright nail polishes. I always like to wear my bright colours on my nails as some of you might know, I don't have a lot of colour in my wardrobe. Bright nails and bright handbags is how I display my springy/summery feelings so I've grouped together a collection of my all time favourite spring nail polishes for your pleasure. 

I'll start with the polish that I featured in my spring/summer essentials post (see here for that blogging bit of goodness) the Butter London nail polish in Jasper. If you are longing to rock those pastel yellow nails but find most yellow polishes look like you've dipped your fingers in mustard, then get your hands on this. I have to say not the greatest formula ever but the colour is flawless after about two maybe three coats. 

Next, let's get the Barry M's up in the spotlight. I'm no stranger to the Barry M polishes and the majority of my collection is Barry M. They do some really gorgeous pastel shades for spring so here are three of my faves. First we have an old friend, Barry M Mint Green, such a gorgeous mint shade and has amazing lasting power. Then we have a few newer additions, Blue Moon and the Gelly formula in Blueberry. Despite Blue Moon being a beautiful pale blue shade it is very sheer and needs a good few coats to make it opaque, but again the colour is so beautiful it is worth the effort. Then we have Blueberry in the Gelly formula, it took two coats to get this an amazing opaque shade and the colour is a really soft pastel blue. 

Finally we have Essie Tea and Crumpets, one of my all time favourite nude shades, this is a really nice dusty pink with a slight shimmer of gold. It looks so beautiful on the nails and if you fancy a nude with a twist it is perfect!

Do you like bright nails or are you more of a nude nail lover?
