Nail Polish Besties for Fall 2013

Hello everyone. 
Apart from being a makeup hoarder I am also a bit of a nail polish hoarder, although I'm not as bad about the nail polish as I used to be. Since I have already shared with you my makeup besties for Fall I though that today I would show you the nail polishes that I love for Fall. Hope you enjoy! 

 Top Row from left to right: ELF Dark Red, Revlon Facets of Fuchsia, Wet N Wild Wet Cement, Sally Hansen Nail Strips Kitty Kitty.
Bottom row from left to right: Revlon Smoky Canvas, Revlon Muse, Wet N Wild Gray's Anatomy, Wet N Wild Sagreena the Teenage Witch
 
I really had a difficult time narrowing this down to only 9 picks. So let's begin. 


 ELF in Dark Red: This is my favorite red polish that I own. It is a deep almost blood red which makes it great for Fall. 

Revlon in Facets of Fuchsia: This polish has a black base with purple round glitters that are rather small & also hexagonal glitters that are a bit bigger. I really like wearing this over a black polish that way you can build up the black background without having a tons of layers of glitter polish on your nails since the black background in this polish alone is a bit sheer. I'm also told that this is a dupe for some Deborah Lipman polish. I don't own any of her polishes though so I can't personally speak to that. 

Wet N Wild Megalast in Wet Cement: I'm not so much a fan of the brush in this polish line but this color is pretty much perfect for Fall. The name "Wet Cement" describes the color really well in my opinion. It does have the slightest hint of a purple undertone which I love. Plus, this color look great no matter what you're wearing which is always nice. 

 Revlon in Gold Coin- Holy metallic, Batman! Is this polish stunning or what? This is what I like to refer to as "jewelry for nails". This polish is perfect for a special event or party but it can also be nice for every day. It also goes with pretty much anything that you're wearing. 

Revlon in Smokey Canvas: This is one of my all time favorites for any time of the year but especially Fall time. It is a light, neutral grey which looks great with anything. I really like wearing this as an accent nail with the rest all black. It might sound kind of boring but there is just something about the look that I love. It's kind of "grunge" & being a child of the '90s you know I love. 

Revlon in Muse- This is a mossy green color that is a little more on the light side than most others that I have seen. It makes me think about going hiking in the woods, is that weird? Oh well. I like wearing this one with Gold Coin as an accent nail. I love the green & gold look. 

Wet N Wild Fast Dry in Gray's Anatomy- This polish is hard to photograph because it is so multi-chromed. It's a greyish silver base that flashes green, purple, & even dark pink at times. It is a sheer color which I like because it can be nice & subtle on it's own or you can use it over other colors such as black, grey, white, really anything. Most of the time though I just do about 3 coats of this on it's own. 

Wet N Wild Fast Dry in Sagreena the Teenage Witch: Jewel tones are always great for Fall & this is my favorite jewel toned nail polish. It is a bright green with very fine sparkles in it. It is so pretty in person. This one would also be great around Christmas time. 

Sally Hansen Salon Effects Nail Polish Strips in Kitty, Kitty: Leopard print is great for Fall & this is a really fun way to incorporate it into a look. This is another nail polish type item that I would describe as "jewelry for your nails". A part for this shade I really love these in general. With a good top coat I can get almost 2 weeks wear out of them. 


Well, that's all for today. What are some of your favorite shades for Fall?

Stay True & Stay You
