Rimmel Urban Purple
It is my first love, I just to just slather my fingers in it before I got polishes which were more than pink

OPI - Gone Gonzo
This was my first posh polish last year, and I bloomin loved it. I love the blue, I hate removing it

China Glaze - Ruby Pumps
This polish just looks the shiznit on, its immense

China Glaze - Flip Flop Fantasy
This is so bright it hurts my eyes, LOL, but I quite like that somedays when I need a cheer up

Leighton Denny - Prim and Proper
Its skin coloured, but it is a lovely base to show other colours off, and a dream to apply.

I'm not so sure I have favourite of the polishes. More the style I like rather than polishes.

Like i like doing the diagonal two tone. And I like glitter tips. If anything I really like sunshine yellow with green glitter crackle. It's obscene (as I was told today!) Very Happy Very Happy

Actual colour wise, I like peppermint Green the most.

And I like a plain stamp set up, usually with either the diagonal effect, or the glittery tip.

Mine are:

Nails Inc Diamond Arcade
Because it's so sparkly and jazzes up any polish!

Max Factor - Fantasy Fire
Because it's gorrrgeous

OPI - Aphrodite's-Pink-Nightie
Because it's so dainty and girlie

Models Own - Ibiza Mix
Because it's fun

I'm going to save spot 5 for now because I haven't yet got GOSH 549 Laughing

OPI - Teenage Dream - it's just so girly and pretty.

OPI - Lincoln Park After Dark - well I don't have to justify it do I? :p

Leighton Denny - Supermodel - can make my nails look amazing, no matter how crap they look.

OPI - Jade is the New Black - I love green Smile

Rimmel - Shocker - First nail varnish I have ever bought 2 of, was a while ago now.

You know what, I don't think I've found a favourite yet. :/

I love, love, LOVE Covent Garden Ballet by Nails Inc. but I don't own it so I don't think it counts, it's just so subtle and delicate! I'm desperately scouring the world for a dupe of it but alas, no dice.

I guess my favourites change over time but at the moment they are:

Max Factor Fantasy Fire - layered over different colours this can look completely different
Layla Mercury Twilight - more holographic than Gosh 549 and lasts longer (2 weeks on my toes with no chips yet)
Sally Hansen Hidden Treasure - so cheap for a flakie and looks great on any dark colour
Rimmel 60 Second Night Before - gorgeous deep purple with pink/green shimmer
Essence Hello Holo - dense silver holographic top coat that makes cheap polish look expensive Smile

I've not really been using polish long enough to have any favourites yet but one that has really impressed me is Cutex Quick 'N Go!
I bought it from here ... [You must be registered and logged in to see this link.]
but they've only got one colour now, i bought the one in the picture and it goes on really thick and in one coat Very Happy
probably discontinued but if you get a chance to buy one try it, for 75p its a bargain Very Happy
Will post a pic if i'm not too drunk drunken

Thanks Wesker, I've added one of those to my bag on Fragrance Direct. Sounds like it'll be good for stamping that one.
