Summer Nail Polish Combinations!

Summer Nail Polish Combos

Matching nail polish on toes and fingers has always been a thing ever since I can remember, but nowadays I think it's more acceptable to switch up your mani, pedi. Summer is the perfect time to experiment with colour, so I've put together some perfect polish matches to complement each other on your nails and toes to rock this Summer.

What's your favourite combination from my top picks?? Leave me a comment down below or tweet me.
L to R - Nails Inc. Porchester Square, China Glaze Shocking Pink, China Glaze Polka Dot Bikini, Nails Inc. Butler Please, O.P.I Glitzerland, Barry M Greenberry, Morgan Taylor Don't Worry Be Brilliant and Models Own Lilac Icing
1. Lilac and Neon Coral - This is a clashing combo that works well and a combo I choose to wear in my recent Get Ready With Me video. Try a pastel purple on your fingers and a neon coral on your toes.
 
2. Mint Green and Gold - Such a beautiful goddess combination! A really bright mint green seems to go so well with a gold polish. I recently did a similar mix in my Matte Nail Art post. Rock the Mint Green on your fingers and Gold on the toes.
MY FAVE COMBOS: Topshop Nails in Green Room and Deborah LippManm Autumn in New York OR Barry M Greenberry and O.P.I Glitzerland.

3. Cobalt Blue and Neon Yellow - I love these colours for Summer as they make me think of tropical holidays. This is a more braver option to rock and one of my personal favourites. Opt for the yellow on your toes and the blue on your nails for the perfect confident colour combo!
MY FAVE COMBOS: NARS Night Out and Aeropostale Brightest Lime OR Nails Inc. Baker Street and China Glaze Polka Dot Bikini.

4. Pink and Tan - If your not into anything too bright, then play it safe and go with a beautiful fuchsia or neon pink on the feet and tan or taupe on the fingers. This is a gorgeous classic combination for Summer beach days.
MY FAVE COMBOS: China Glaze Glow with the Flow and Butter London Cuppa OR China Glaze Shocking Pink and Nails Inc. Porchester Square.

Nails Inc. Sprinkles Collection Review, Swatches & Photos

Nails Inc. has been on top of their game this year with constant on trend colours and nail effects that any Nail Polish Addict needs in their collection!

I have especially been interested in the Sprinkles Collection which creates a multi-layered glitter & polish effect to give the look of Sprinkles. I haven't seen this type of polish where the glitter is mixed in with the coloured polish anywhere, which makes Nails Inc. completely different and unique to any other brand I have seen out there.
Here's my thoughts.
 

PACKAGING
The packaging is cute & kitsch, displaying that these are a special effects polish. They also have a Tiny Cupcake sticker on the top with Sprinkles on which is very appropriate to the range and makes them stand out. The only thing I would say is I do find the top a bit plastic for a high end brand.
Each bottle contains 10ml of polish.

TEXTURE
The polish is of medium to thick consistency, the base colour is a crème formula injected with three different glitters to give the sprinkles effect.
 
COVERAGE
Because of the consistency and pigmentation you can almost get away with one coat of these polishes, but I think two coats shows of the multi-layer of the glitter and colour better.

APPLICATION
The polish is easy to apply because of the long thin brush which helps you achieve flawless application.

LONGEVITY
This doesn't stay on as long as a normal coloured polish due to its consistency; I'd say it lasted about 2-3 days when I applied this, using a base and top coat.
Warwick Street is a fine sprinkle that was exclusive to a QVCUK TSV.
 
 PRICE
These are priced at £11 a bottle, which is average for a high end nail brand and I think you get what you pay for with regards to the formula and buying into a trend led brand which is on the top of their game, it’s just a shame about the plastic looking top.

FINAL THOUGHTS
I love these polishes because the formula is unlike anything I have ever seen before and as I have mentioned Nails Inc. impress me every time with their fashion forward led collections, colours and textures, they really are up there when it comes to nail brands and I am looking forward to seeing what they come out with next!

I award the Sprinkles Collection 4.5 out of 5
