Favorite Inexpensive Nail Polishes

I just recently started painting my nails. When I was in school, I was a competitive horseback rider, so my nails took a beating. I never took the time to paint them because it would just be messed up later. Now that I dont ride anymore (*sigh*), I paint my nails when I have a chance. I have a three year old so this is few and far between, but I have found a few great inexpensive brands. Sinful Colors, Wet and Wild, Spoiled by Wet and Wild, and LA colors are AMAZING!!! I can not justify paying almost $10 for a nail polish and these brands range from 99 cents to $2.00.  These are great, especially if you are on a budget.

I am going to show yall my favorite shades from these brands. Now I don't have swatches of my own, but I will link in some swatches. So here we go...

1) My ALL TIME FAV color is Sinful Colors Easy Going.

This is a beautiful LIGHT pink. This is a essential for all nail polish collections. It is perfect if your not into bright colors, or you work a job where bright color is not acceptable. It is so smooth and creamy, and completely opaque in two coats. 


2) Wet and Wild Sparkled is a gorgeous sparkly shade. A completely opaque sparkle shade is hard to find, but this is completely opaque in 3 coats, which seems like a lot but it is a gorgeous shade.



3) Sinful Colors Let Me Go is a beautiful duo chrome polish. The shade is stunning in the bottle. It has shades of green and purple.When applied it comes off sheer but is very buildable. I became opaque for me in 3 coats. 


4) Sinful Colors in Island Coral is a stunning coral shade. Corals are very in for the season and this is a perfect coral shade. This is a a cream polish and is almost opaque in one coat. I still apply 2 to make it completely opaque 


5) Spoiled by Wet and Wild in Toad-ally Amazing is a really fun minty tealish shade. This is such a awesome summer shade. It has a hint of sparkle in it and has a great texture. This shade is opaque in 2 coats. LOVE this color. 

6) LA colors in Mega Watt. I am not a huge LA colors fan. There makeup is horrible but their nail polishes are pretty good. They also make the oh-so-famous art deco stripers. Mega Watt is a very sheer, nude color. If you want a very opaque colors you will need about 4 coats. For some reason I love this shade even though it is extremely sheer. It just adds a gorgeous sheen to your nails. 


7) Wet and Wild in Wet Cement is a very dark shade. Im not usually into extremely dark shades, but this one is just very pretty. It really reminds me of the Maybelline Color Tattoo in Tough as Taupe, but in nail polish form. If you love dark taupe shades, this is for you. 


8) NYC Matte Me Crazy Mattifying Top Coat. No this is not a polish shade per se, but occasionally I am in the mood for a matte nail color. So colors are beautiful when matte as well. Now this swatch is over some random black color. I have no idea what it is, but I wanted to show how this top coat works. 


So there y'all have it. These are my favorite inexpensive nail polish shades. Let me know yall's favorite shades. I would love to check them out!!
