Five Colourful Polishes to Rock this Season's Trends

Top Beauty Blogger Hannah of the Make Up Times has given us her top five nail colours to keep you on trend for Summer'14..

Summer is finally here, which means it's time to ditch that dark red polish and reach for something a whole lot brighter.  A colourful mani is the ultimate accessory and the easiest way to add a fun pop of colour to an outfit. 

Fashion Fair Nail Polish in Divine Pink £9.00 Debenhams

Love bright colours but not sure how to wear them? With an almost matte finish this super bright, neon pink is the perfect Summer addition - but it won’t overwhelm your look. If you’re still not convinced you could always try it on your toes as an alternative to your usual red pedicure - just don’t forget a base coat!

No7 Gel-Look Shine Polish in Lemon Drop £7.00 Boots

Is there a colour that screams Summer more than a lemon yellow? With gel finish formulas popping up left right and centre it was only a matter of time before No7 joined the party. Completely opaque in just two coats, this high shine gel-look polish is both long lasting and pretty. 

Barry M Gelly Hi-Shine in Blueberry £3.00 Superdrug

New to blue polish? Barry M’s Blueberry provides the prettiest cornflower blue hue that’s so easy to wear it‘s the perfect place to start. The thick, glossy gel effect formula means application is fool proof, plus it provides long lasting colour and tonnes of shine for an extra glam mani.

Maybelline Forever Strong Super Stay Gel Colour in Mint for Life £4.99 Boots

Pretty pastels do the rounds every Summer and this year is no exception. Mint for life is the perfect subtle pastel green, and the thick and creamy formula only needs two coats for complete opacity. An extra wide brush covers nails in one stroke making application a breeze, even with your ‘bad‘ hand. Promising an impressive 7 days wear this is the perfect polish to get you through festival season.

Barry M Gelly Hi-Shine Huckleberry £3.99 Superdrug

Following on from the success of the original Gelly Hi-Shine polishes, Barry M was back for 2014 with some new pastel additions.  Don’t be put off by the super light barely there colour. It’s the sort of pure blue shade that suits everyone and is the perfect accompaniment to that Summer tan. The gelly formula means application takes seconds and beautifully smooth, long lasting nail colour is only a brush stroke away.
