Throwback Thursday | Yearly Nail Art Favourites

It is now 2019 and its November. I am sorry for how rubbish I am with blogging on time, sorry guys.
 
Dragonfly nail art
Here is Essie Lilacism, this is my dragonfly nail art. I am so obsessed with this. I know I am so behind with this post but I want to recreate this again once before.
Mr & Mrs Santa Claus
I was so happy with this mani, it was one of my favourite Christmas manis I have done. Red isn't a colour I like to wear, but at Christmas it is just perfect to wear.
Frankenstein Nails
WOW! I have to say so myself. This again was one of my favourite manis. Oh this is getting hard, I am super happy with this one. I wish I could recreate this one because I am so happy with it.
Sally Hansen Flower Accent
This is so cute, I find this so simple and I was really grateful with it. I will have to try and recreate this with some cute colours. I really love this polish also as it was absolutely gorgeous.

Life Of Agnes Collab
I don't know why but I am just so happy with this, it is cute. I am wearing a colour that I usually wouldn't like on my skin tone. But it is very pretty.

Daisy Chain
I love floral nails so much, it just makes me so happy and I have so much joy out of it when I do floral nails. That may sound stupid but these make me again so happy. I love this look. I recreated Stephyclaws mani and I fell in love with it.
Twin mani floral nails
Again what a shock another floral nails. I really love this one. This is just so colourful, I think these work really well. I am so happy with this gorgeous flower mani.

Pokémon
This is the first time I have done pokemon nails and I love it. I also really liked this polish too as it is gorgeous, almost a one coater.
 
Bunny nails
I love this mani, it is really cute. I recreated 25sweetpeas mani and I really want to recreate this mani again actually. I feel that this would be a lot better now because I have a lot more practice with nail art. I also did smudge it before but its still cute.
Bee Valentines
I copied this from something I saw in Sainsbury's. I love this. I actually managed to write on my nails which never ever happens. I find this really cute.

2018 | Nail Polish Yearly Favourites

So here it is, my 2018 nail polish favourites. I have decided to do 18 nail polish favourites, seeing as I used 81 polishes in this year. I knew I would have lots of favourites, lets have a look at these. Also sorry for some of these pictures because they are in the wrong size.

Ard As Nails First Frost
I used this in December, it is so beautiful. I got this in the Christmas collection that Kat did a couple of years back. This is one of the first polishes I used from the set. I absolutely love this polish, it is so insanely beautiful.


Sinful Colors Karma
Now this polish isn't me at all. First of all I hate matte polishes but this is so beautiful. I loved this so much, it dried like a demi matte and so unusual. This is such a gorgeous colour. This is from the Kylie Jenner collection.

Pretty Perfect Polish Over My Dad's Potty
This has to be one of my favourite polishes of all time. I really love this, it is such a unique polish. I am not sure if you are aware but Pretty Perfect Polish is currently on a hiatus. I really hope she comes back because it is one of my favourite UK indie brands.

Models Own Radiant Pink
I love this polish. I don't wear as many pinks as I probably should. I have so many in my collection but it isn't a colour I usually gravitate towards. This is so beautiful, the diamond luxe is one of those collections I regret not picking up more of. This probably needed another coat but what can you do.

Primark Pink Strobe
This is so so beautiful. I can't tell you how many likes this polish got on instagram. It is so pretty. I don't have many holographics but wow that needed to change. These polishes are so beautiful and  wish primark sold them again because they would have so many people who want them.

BarryM Laguna  
I love this polish, it is gorgeous. BarryM have done some wonders the last few weeks. I am so happy with this, you might see this nail art again soon. I feel the coconut infusions were quite underrated because you rarely see anyone talking about them. I might start using my other ones.
  
Ciate House Of Mirrors
Is this not so beautiful. This was in one of the ciate advent calendars, I can't remember which year it is from. I really love this and the nail art is pretty good too isn't it. Well I think so anyway. This is holographic, Ciate don't do many holos so this is really great.

Essie Exposed
I love this polish, this is one of my favourite Essie polishes. I really love this so much, it is so beautiful. I am so happy I got this one, it is one of my favourite colours. I love nail polishes like this, if there are many more colours like this then please let me know.
Princess Nail Lacquer Nail You See Me
This was my first time using Princess Nail Lacquer and I absolutely loved it. Unfortunately Princess Nail Lacquer is no more. But I still have quite a few to use so I am very happy with the others I have and will try and get round to using them all.

OPI Starry Eyed For Dear Daniel
This is so beautiful, look at that the pink glitter. This is one polish I regret only using as an accent nail because it is so so gorgeous. I will promise I will use it again in another manicure because it is gorgeous.

Seventeen Melon Ball
I have no words for this absolute beauty. Let's take a moment to really appreciate this and mourn the fact this brand is no longer being sold anywhere. This is so beautiful, I don't why boots got rid of this brand the absolute idiots. This is so beautiful, I want to wear this so much. Also I know people make necklaces out of nail polish and I want someone to make one out of this.

OPI Yank My Doodle
I wore this for my cousin's birthday, I love this so much. It is absolutely gorgeous. This has been one of those polishes that I have been wanting to wear for so long but haven't ever got round to it.

2017 | Nail Art Yearly Favourites

So what is my excuse of me posting this so late, I hear you ask. Well I actually have no excuse. I am sorry for being such a terrible nail blogger.
 

BarryM Pink Lemonade 'Lemon Nail Art'
I am so happy with how this turned out. I was inspired by Hannah_nails_it once again. She is just super talented. I loved doing the lemons as it is something completely different to what I would usually do on my nails. But I love the pink nail polish, it is such a beautiful shade. I am not the biggest wearer of pink but I am glad that I got this one.
 
BarryM Prickly Pear 'Easter Bunny Nails'
I was inspired by nailsbyjema for this nail look. I love her, she is always an inspiration. I absolutely love this polish, it is really pretty. I love this purple and the cute carrots were just so cute. I actually made my friends choose which Easter nails I should do and this was the one they said to do.

Technic White Sands 'Mosaic Nail art'
I used Technic White Sands which is a very nice white. I loved doing the mosaic because it didn't really matter how messy they were because I could fill it in with different colours. But I am so ready to do this nail art again, maybe in 2019 because I have too many nail art ideas.


Tanya Burr New York Night 'Aldi Carrot Nail Art'
This was my Christmas nail art and I was very impressed by how these turned out. The Aldi advert was basically a family of carrots. Yes this is totally normal when you say it out loud ha-ha. There was a mum, dad and the three children. The purple was quite dark but I liked it.



Essence Happy Girls Shine Brighter 'Rainbow Nail Art'
Essence is such a beautiful pink, I absolutely loved the shimmer running through it. This was one of my favourite polishes in 2017. The nail art was for Tippedoffnails birthday collab. I found a nail art on instagram and this was perfect to do for the theme.


Sally Hansen Coin Flip 'Square Nail Art'
This was for a glam nails challenge and I had to do squares. It is a little strange really because squares isn't something that I would put on my nails usually. But I was very impressed with how it went and I would absolutely love to do it again.


Models Own White Light 'Octopus Nails'
Again another white polish, this wasn't the best white. I think it might have been the brush that made it a little messy. But aren't they the cutest octopus you will ever see. Yes they are. I used so many different colours. I was inspired by onenailtorulethemall, she was one of my favourite bloggers when I first started reading blogs.


Kiko 707 Blue Mermaid 'Toy Story Alien Nails'
I decided I would do this for my Disney challenge where I did a Disney nail art every month. This is lovely. I was really happy when I decided to do this because it turned out very well. The polish was really nice as well, this was the first time that I worked with the glossy nail lacquer.


Sinful Colors Baby Doll 'Envelope Nails'
This was one of my vakentine day nails. I really liked this nail art but sadly the nail polish stained pretty badly. I wouldn't recommend this nail polish at all as a baby pink shouldn't stain me. But this envelope nail art is so cute. I already have in mind what nail art to do for valentines day in 2019.

2017 | Nail Polish Yearly Favourites

Here is my yearly favourites. I know I am slightly late, but what's new I am always late when it comes to posting. Just to let you know this is such a huge post.

 
BarryM Blue Glacier
I wore this at the end of the year, it is so beautiful. This reminds me of winter icicles. I absolutely love this polish. This took 2 coats and I am so happy with this beautiful polish. I knew this would be an instant favourite.
 
BarryM Pink Lemonade
This isn't a me colour. Don't get me wrong I love pink polishes, but I am more of a green polish kind of person. I found this so delicate and just made my hands look really good ha-ha. I just love this one so much.
BarryM Prickly Pear
This is a gorgeous lilac polish, I don't have many polishes like this. I found this polish so easy to work with, I know I am not the hugest fan of how short my nails are but what can you do. This did take 2/3 coats saying that actually. This was also my 100th polish worn in the untried year.
 
Polish Me Royalty Bluddy Sprouts!
I have literally no words for this polish. I couldn't wait to wear this polish. I absolutely loved this polish it is such an amazing green and this was just two coats. Unfortunately when I wore this I had such a swollen cuticle, gross.
 
 
Polish Me Royalty Alice
Again another polish me royalty, this is such a unique polish. I don't think I have seen anything so magical before. This is a beautiful pale blue with gold running through it. I used two coats but looking back at swatch photos I should have used a third coat.
Primark Insta Glam
Now this was a surprise favourite this year, I just can't tell you why I loved this so much. Sadly this isn't a one coater for me, it took two coats. But that doesn't bother me. I am such a fan of this polish, but it does look quite a waxy texture when it wasn't.
 
Kiko 532 Pearly Amazon Green
Wow! What a polish this is, I could not wait to wear this polish. Isn't this such a perfect green and greens are just so perfect all the time. This took 1/2 coats and this could have been just a one coater. But it needed to deepen the colour just a little. This is probably the top polish of 2017.
 
Sally Hansen Coin Flip
This is a beautiful polish, I have had this for so long and it never really got a look in. This is a gorgeous gold shade and it took 2 coats. I am very happy because this is something so different for me to use. I also loved the nail art with this one. Again this isn't nail art I would usually do.
 
Essence Happy Girls Shine Brighter
Again essence you have done well, I applaud you. This is gorgeous, I always buy pink polishes but never usually wear them that often. This took 1/2 coats and it probably could have been just the one coater. I have to say this is just so perfect.
 
Sinful Colors Blue By You
I have no words for this absolute beauty, I loved it so much. This took 2/3 coats, I didn't wait to take this off because it is perfect. I am so annoyed that we can't get sinful colors as much in the UK, the only time really is in poundland or other random shops.
 
Essence Beam Me Up
This is so beautiful. Again essence did good. This is absolutely gorgeous, I don't have many holographic polishes but I am a huge fan of them. I didn't get them all, but this is one of my favourites of the year.
 
Rimmel Bestival Blue
Yes yes, when I was searching through my polishes I forgot what polishes I had even worn. I really loved this one, I don't wear rimmel polishes enough. I make that my mission to wear as many as i can this year.
 
 
Essie Jade To Measure
I have no words for this polish, this was one of the last couple of polishes used in 2017. Essie were just so amazing last year and this was a lot of peoples favourites this year and I can so see why.
 
 
Pretty Perfect Polish Why Can't They Tell Us Apart?!
I loved this polish so much. I am so happy that I got to try pretty perfect polish. I have loads to wear and i cannot wait. This is a very pretty light green and as soon as I put the first swipe of polish on it was going to be in my favourites immediately.
 
 
Leighton Denny Let Your Hair Down
This is such a unique colour, I haven't got many colours like this and I am such a fan of it. Leighton Denny was a new brand to me this year and I am so glad that I got this. I think I will branch out more in colours.
 
Technic Happy Holidays
This is a beautiful polish, this was again a surprise. I really liked bright pink shades. I am so happy with this polish. This took just 2 coats. I also loved this nail art even if i wasn't the greatest at the hearts.
 
Miss Beauty Mermaid
This is a huge surprise polish. I have never looked at this brand before and it took me by surprise. This was just £1 and you should never judge a nail polish by the price. I am so happy with how this polish went, doesn't it look pure perfection.
