Nails: A Case of the Blues

Bikini So Teeny ♥ Celestial  ♥ Dazzling Blue ♥ Azure ♥ Betty Blues

I’m one of those girls that like to paint my nails according to my mood and this week didn't start great for me, hence feeling a bit blue. I also like to use nail polish as a way to lift my mood; if I have pretty nails it makes me feel that bit better.

It turns out I own quite a few blue polishes, who knew?  I've picked out my top 5 which are a lovely mix of shades. Essie’s Bikini So Teeny was one of the most hyped polish of last year, a gorgeous pale blue perfect for summer. When I purchased Bikini So Teeny I didn't realise i actually owned a very similar colour, Topshop's Celestial is just slightly brighter, I might not have bought Essie if I had realised this but I still like them both.

Dazzling blue From Max Factor is a lovely sky blue with a gold shimmer running though it, I love this just because its really different. Rimmel's Azure I wear when I fancy something a bit in your face, I love the pearly finish it has. Last but not least is Betty Blues by No7, a navy, off black which I think is quite sophisticated. When it catches the light you can see its beautiful midnight sheen.

This weeks winner though has to be Bikini So Teeny. Even though I said its perfect for summer, I think it looks great in this cold frosty weather. I always get complements on my nails when I wear this and that did help give me a little lift.
Do you own any of these colours? Which is your favourite?

  1. The Rimmel one looks gorgeous. When I've finished my Project 10 Pan I may have to make a sneaky purchase of this one ;)

  2. Bikini so teeny is such a gorgeous colour! I have one and I love it :) I love the look of the Rimmel one as well so I will definitely be looking at that soon! One of my favourites is Essie mint candy apple as it's a lovely spring / summer shade but also a great bright shade in the frosty weather, just like bikini so teeny! :) xx

  12. I love blue nail polishes more than any other shade. I feel like they make such a statement. I liked the Essie one the most. And I'd definitely wear Betty Blues for a night out :) Nice post xx
