I know there are some fancy brands out there, but so far I stick to cheap polish. There are very few polishes that I've spent over $5 on, as I love shopping for good deals or just going with the inexpensive alternative.
With that said, here's the beginning of The List! Click the little x boxes to go designs where that polish was used.
BLACK POLISHES
- Wet n Wild Wild Shine: Black Creme - One of my favorite black polishes and one of the first polishes I ever purchased. Works well for water marbling. Goes on very dark in just one coat, though occasionally there's a lighter patch that can be covered in two coats.
- NYC: Black Lace Creme - A very thin, watery black polish. I think this looks like it has an almost warm tone, but that could be an effect of it being so thin.
- ColorMates: I'm Raven About You - About as thick as the Wet n Wild black creme. Snatched at the Dollar Tree! {untried}
- Sinful Colors: Secret Admirer - One of my favorite polishes. Black with a pronounced silver shimmer. It's dark enough to pass as black but with more pizazz.
- The Color Workshop: [nameless] - One from a little kit packaged with a finger dryer. Black jelly polish with green and orange microglitters. Looks a little thin. {untried}
- L.A. Girl Magnetic: Magnetic Force - Black/dark silver shimmer. Comes with its own chevron magnet fitted to the cap, which is neat. Found in the clearance section for $2! {untried}
- NYC: Rock Muse Top Coat - Found in a 2-pack at the dollar tree. It looks like a very thin smoky black with very subtle orange and green glitter. Trying to find swatches online took me to a very different Rock Muse top coat with large hex glitter. This is much more subtle than that, can't wait to try it out! {untried}
SILVER POLISHES
- Revlon: Steel-her Heart - Super metallic dark silver {untried}
- Sinful Colors: Magnetism - Dark metallic silver, maybe a half-shade lighter than Steel-her Heart. It's magnetic, too! Dollar tree polish. {untried}
- Sally Hansen Xtreme Wear: Gunmetal - Dark silver-blue shimmer
- Fetish Run for Cover: Scorpio - Dollar Tree! This came with little scorpio nail art stickers. Dark silver metallic shimmer. {untried}
- China Glaze: Immortal - Pretty pretty polish. Mid-gray, with a very subtle blue and purple shimmer that sounds like it would be weird but ends up being amazing.
- Sinful Colors: Tantalize - Light gray shimmer
- Wet n Wild Wild Shine: Metallica - Light gray metallic shimmer
- Confetti: Silver Slippers - What I would describe as a 'warm' silver shimmer. Compared to my other silvers, it has a tone that shifts toward light brown
- L.A. Colors: Silver - Bright, blinding light silver glitter. So bright!
