Makeup Wars Best Summer Manis
Happy Monday! It’s time for another Makeup Wars! This time we’re bringing you our best Summer Manis. I’ve got an awesome mani for you as well as several favorite shades to look at.
For my mani above I used Pretty Serious The Pink One for the bright pink that has intense blue shimmer. For the white nails, I used a base of Illamasqua Scorch, then layered KB Shimmer What’s Your Damage? on top.
Here are my other choices!
From the Left Clockwise: NARS Sharpline Left – Orly Mayhem Mentality – Ninja Polish Pacific Coral – KBShimmer 24 Carrot Bold – KBShimmer Don’t Pink Twice – Pretty Serious The Pink One – Literary Lacquers Raspberry Cordial? – Cult Nails Morning Glory – piCture pOlish Warning – Pretty Serious Party by the Pool – Wing Dust Sleepless Summer Nights on top of Nubar Hot Blue – Nubar Hot Blue – Literary Lacquers Green Gables – KBShimmer What’s Your Damage on top of Illamasqua Scorch – KBShimmer Blinded by the Bright on top of Illamasqua Scorch – Illamasqua Scorch
Cult Nails Morning Glory – an eye catching shade of magenta that dries to a perfect wax finish. You can add a shiny topcoat, like I did down the center, if you like.
Illamasqua Scorch – white creme
KB Shimmer 24 Carrot Bold – Orange red polish with gold shimmer – matte
KB Shimmer Blinded by the Bright – Neon yellow polish with a scattering of hex glitters in the 6 primary and secondary colors
KB Shimmer Don’t Pink Twice – Bright near magenta pink with subtle blue shimmer – matte
KB Shimmer What’s Your Damage? – White crelly polish with neon green, neon pink, and black glitters.
Literary Lacquers Green Gables – a mid-toned grass green linear holographic polish.
Literary Lacquers Raspberry Cordial? – a raspberry pink linear holographic polish with added holo glitter.
NARS Sharpline Left – peach creme
Ninja Polish Pacific Coral – this polish captures several amazing shades of corals oranges and pinks while encorporating a color shifting shimmer that bounces across your nails as the sun shimmers across the ocean.
Nubar Hot Blue – a punchy neon blue creme
Orly Mayhem Mentality – neon orange creme
piCture pOlish Warning – multi-dimensional purple. not a holo nor a mulit chrome nor a glitter. Warning has a mystery rainbow effect that is magical so you really need to see it in person. Plus, layer it over black for a burst of beauty.
Pretty Serious Party by the Pool – Splash about in this gorgeous peacock jelly, swimming with flecks of green and blue!
Pretty Serious The Pink One – This hot pink has a blue flash that screams for attention.
Wing Dust Sleepless Summer Nights – a deep blue jelly base with copper-red shimmer. It leans turquoise because of the red tint of the shimmer over top. It is loaded with green, yellow, brown, gold, turquoise and blue and white stars.
Which are your favorites?
Ohhh this is why I like you so much 🙂 I have almost all of these (I need to get the Ninja Polish Coral!) and I just did a similar mani (I used Don’t Pink Twice but almost used The Pink One). Such a fun mix of colors, takes me back to the 80’s 😀

Phyrra perilouslypale I wouldn’t even know where to start! That’s why I did a “nail art look” vs having to narrow down favourite polishes! 😉
