2022 Round Up- Mainstream Nail Polish Favorites!!

Wow, happy 2023! Here’s my wrap up of favorite mainstream polishes (indies will be next!)

In no particular order except for my favorite, at the end…we have first the two from the China Glaze Dippin’ Dots that were my faves, Strawberry Chillin’ and Arctic Confetti- the pink and the white crelly, groundbreaking, lololol.

The formulas were great on both, and they’re awesome polishes from an awesome collection.

Then my absolute favorite from the Essie Study Tips collection, the namesake Study Tips. I just love this shade of blue and the formula was great!

Then I had three from the OPI DS polishes that I became obsessed with, the first is DS Reflection.

OPI DS Indulgence

OPI DS Tourmaline

Another Essie, Secret Story- such a pretty pink jelly!

Zoya Cana was a surprise favorite. A coral jelly!!

OPI Heart and Con-Sole- super sparkly and so pretty!

Then Orly Vintage- how have I not worn this before? Love this one!

Then a new to me brand, Island Girl, that was gifted to me, this is Hula Festival! A stunning pink shimmer, it’s truly one of my favorites (and it’s probably my second favorite of the year).

Then China Glaze Rotten to the Core from their 2022 Halloween collection. A gorgeous purple!

Next is Zoya Binx. I’m not usually a fan of lighter pinks, but this tends towards medium pink and I love the glitter in it!

Next, OPI I’m Really an Actress. I actually didn’t wear this until late in the year, and it was an instant hit! And I also discovered that I don’t own OPI I’m Not Really a Waitress, so I will have to remedy that!

Now, drumroll please, my favorite mainstream polish of 2022!! From the China Glaze Halloween 2022 collection, I present to you, Twisted Sister! The hot pink matte polish.

Not groundbreaking either, but I adore this shade of pink, the satiny matte finish is beautiful, and it was so easy to work with!

What were your mainstream nail polish faves? I’ll have indies up next!

Live your life with love in your heart and glitter on your nails!
