Artsy Wednesday: Favourite Brand

When it comes to brands of nail polish, I favour OPI, Leighton Denny and Nails Inc.  OPI was the first ever brand I really used and I was tempted to go with them for my all time favourite brand of polish but I decided to go with Leighton Denny instead.  My reason for this is, his colours are so vibrant and punchy and bright that they in themselves provide me with nail inspo!

Like this:



The above two pics have been instagrammed, the below two are with flash, unedited.

I painted my fingers with two different base colours, on my left hand I painted my pinky, middle and index in Heiress by Leighton Denny and my ring and thumb in So L.A also by Leighton Denny.  I painted them the other way around on my right hand.

So L.A and The Heiress are two of my favourite nail polish colours; I come to them time and time again and never fail to provide some kind of inspiration for me.

I then used the striper bit of some nail art brushes to achieve the stripes.  I decided to paint chevrons on my index finger just to mix it up a bit!



Are you a fan of stripy nails?  Have you got a favourite nail polish brand?  It's so hard to pick isn't it?!
