Autumn/Fall Nail Polish Picks

I’m one of those people that likes to changed up what colours I wear on my nails and lips for that matter depending on the season. When it comes to autumn/winter I swap out my baby pinks, blues and coral nail polishes for reds, greys and purples. These are the five I’m going to be wearing the most this season.

Collection Lasting Gel Colour – Stormy Grey 11
Although I prefer wearing darker shades in the Autumn, I do like me a nude colour. This one is a light brown nude, that looks very sophisticated and classy. These gel collection ones are amazing, the formula is so shiny and they last a good 5 days without chipping.

Barry M Nail Paint – 293 Grey
The Barry M nail paints are one of my favourite nail polish brands. All the shades I have are really opaque and only need one coat, they look so glossy too. The shade grey is an amazing autumn colour, and I wear it a lot at this time of year.

Bourjois Very Vernis – Cerise Noire 36
This is my all time favourite and most worn Autumn shade so far. It’s the most perfect burgundy shade, and I’ve never owned a colour like it before. I’ve worn it for up to a week before I need to take it off and to me it just screams autumn!

Maybeline Express Finish – Charming Cobait 637
This is the prettiest dark purpley blue colour with subtle glitter in it. I can just imagine wearing this to a Christmas party or something really festive. These nail polishes also dry insanely quick, which is handy if you’re in a rush.

Avon Nailwear Pro+ – Real Red
You can’t beat a classic red nail in autumn and this shade by Avon is the best red I’ve tried. It’s a true, deep red with a shiny finish. You really can’t go wrong!

What are your favourite Autumn/Winter nail polishes?

May Wish List

1. Bourjois Bronzing Primer – As you all know I’m dying to get my hands on the Chanel Tan De Soleil but I can’t afford to fork out over £30 on a bronzer, so when I heard that this is a cheaper alternative I of course immediately checked it out and bookmarked it to buy when I next get paid.

2. Oasis Leather Slipper – I seen these shoes on Tanya Burr’s get ready with me, I think they’d be perfect for the summer. I love slipper type shoes as they can be casual yet smart and the clean white colour of these ones will go with everything!

3. Nars Sheer Glow – I’m constantly on the look out for new foundations to try out, and this month Nars Sheer Glow is on my radar, I think this foundation will look beautiful on the skin in the summer and the light coverage will give a natural yet polished look.

4. Forever 21 Ring Stack – I’m a big fan of ring stacks lately and when I seen these ones on the Forever 21 website last week I fell in love, I love all things elephants so I need to get my hands on these!

5. Nars Albatross Highlighter – I’ve recently gotten back into highlighters and every time I see this product being used in a YouTube video I fall in love, £21 though! 😦

6. Black High Waisted Skinny Jeans – I think everyone needs a pair of high waisted jeans in their wardrobe, I really want to get a pair of black ones so that I can wear crop tops with them in the summer.

April Wishlist

April wishlist by xcourtneypaige 

1. Mac Blush in Warm Soul – I’m not a big blush fan and only own around 3 colours but I feel as though this colour would suit my skintone perfectly.

2. Eos Lipbalm – I’ve been searching for these in the UK foreverrrrr! Now that I know they sell them here I’m dying to get one.

3. Mac Strobe Cream – I’ve wanted this product ever since the woman in mac applied it under my foundation, it made my skin so radiant. I need!

4. Naked 3 palette – I feel as though I need this more than I want it just so I can say that I own all 3 of the naked palettes. It does however look stunning!

5. Chanel Soleil Tan De Chanel – I cannot express to you enough about how much I want this product in my life! I’m a huge fan of bronzing and contouring as I think it completely lifts your face and complexion and this stuff just looks to die for.

6. Bourjois Helathy Mix Foundation – I recently run out of my match perfection foundation and picked up the Mac Mineralize Moisture foundation as a replacement, but at £27 I feel rather bad about using it everyday so I’m thinking of picking up the healthy mix foundation as an everyday one and keeping my mac one for special occasions.
