Spring Nail Polish Favorites

Nail polish is one of our favorite guilty pleasures.  Our collections are scary large, but we always seem to find room for new additions.  Although we generally gravitate toward darker colors in the winter and lighter ones in the spring, we also try to check out the new releases each season.  Here are some colors we are wearing this spring, new and old!



1.  Essie Gel Couture in Couture Curator: We first spotted this color on the fantastic Kindra's Instagram a while back and knew we needed it.  It's a little pink, a little peach and soooo flattering on many different skin tones.  This is a neutral with a little personality, just what you want for spring.

2. Julep Alaina: We mentioned this polish in a previous Julep Beauty post, but it is worth bringing up again.  This polish is a perfect combination of taupe and beige with hints of mauve.  Spring weather can be a bit grey where we live (or even a little chilly) so this polish will work well with your spring or winter wardrobe.

3.  CND Weekly Polish in Cake Pop: We first spotted this polish when our fabulous friend (and blog reader) CarrieT was sporting it last summer.  It's also available in a gel formula, but this is the non-gel version, which makes at-home application and removal easier.  The pink is girly, but professional and clean looking.  We're just not too wild about the lack of staying power.  Despite the name, this seems to chip early, even with a great top coat.

4. Essie Pret-a-Surfer: This polish was first released in the Summer of 2015, but it's still one of our favorites.  It's a lovely light blue that looks amazing on your fingers or toes.  It's also a good transitional color because it's not a true pastel.

5. Julep Shelly: This mint green is lovely for spring.  At the time of this post, it was out of stock, but you can try here for a similar look.

6. Essie Gel Couture in Pre-Show Jitters: Can you tell that Essie is our favorite brand?  We love their color selection and formulas.  The Gel Couture line features basically the best brush ever and great staying power!  This color is a beautiful white with just a hint of blush.
