What are your favorite weird nail polish colors?

Please specify the name, and the brand, and a picture of it if possible. Also include any comments you have.

Mine are:

Sally Hansen Chrome Nail Makeup:
There are a lot of nice shades in this product line. This is good quality nail polish; it dries quickly, is not prone to smudging, and has good durability, especially with a topcoat (I use Nailtiques Formula 2 which is the best I have tried). I have no idea why the ads say it should be touched up every two days to maintain shine when in reality it keeps its shine better than most nail polishes I have tried. It is not too expensive (usually about $3-$5 per bottle, depending on where it is sold).

Here is a pic of what I did with three of the colors from this product line: [see attached thumbnail]

I wish Hard Candy still made same selection of unusual nail polish colors that they had when they first came out, like in 1996. Unfortunately I don't have any pics of these. They can be found online, though.

I guess it depends on your definition of weird. I'm a polish junkie so I have a lot of fun, unusual colors. I like anything sparkly and especially anything green or blue.

I love China Glaze, OPI Designer Series & NYX polishes.

This is one of my favorite green combos:

and this is my HG green, OPI Rainforest (very HTF)

China Glaze Moonpool (#6) is my other most favorite green

CincyFan, that looks awesome! Thanks for posting the color wheel stuff too. How many coats of glitter did you apply over the neon green? Also, where do you buy NYX nail polishes and those color wheels?

 

[CincyFan]

You're welcome. I believe that was two coats of Neon Green as base and either 1 or 2 coats of Lime Sparkle. It's been a while since I did that one.

I got my NYX's from their website. The site says the polishes are $4 but they are only $3 in the shopping cart. Shipping was reasonable and so fast. I got 10 polishes for $36.05 incl shipping.

The wheels are from an ebay seller. I've bought 3 sets from him. The seller's name is timtimng and the item is called Nail Art Display Wheels. He has the best price for sets of 5 wheels.

If you'd like to see the rest of my colors they're here:

CincyFan, your color wheels are wonderfully mesmerizing!

I wear only lilacy purple nail polish! I love Purple Party (despite the lame name) in the colorama line.. unfortunatly I cant remember which brand this is... maybe L'Oreal. Thats all I wear... they dont seem to make it anymore though

so next I want to try hi Lily Hi Lo by MAC!

 

[VeganChick]

^ Colorama is Maybelline (is it sad that I knew that off the top of my head??) and yes, they still make 'purple party' according to their website...
I don't really wear any weird colors, although I really like that NYX lime Sparkle/Neon Green. (I have a color that should look like that base, but it doesn't...)
I just found like 3 dark purples that I may start wearing, and my absolute favorite (aside from a couple of pinks) is this really dark sparkley burgundy. (Red Comet, #180, Maybelline's Express Finish) I would take a picture, but I'm not wearing it atm...But it's gorgeous and one of the few I wear on my hands.
I do have a nice teal BonBon that I wear occasionally...other than that I wear really normal colors. Like pink.

I wear most of the more esoteric OPI colours. Black Satin is my favourite, but I love the Bright range.

CincyFan, your nails are so lovely!

 

[jessiekins1]

as someone who deals with nails on a regualr basis(i'm an esthetician), i actually keep my fingernails and toe nails polish free. don't get me wrong, i LOVE to wear polish it's just that it dosn't last very long on me.

when you have your hands in various facial products all day long and then some polish remover comes along.......it makes a big mess. i also keep my nails really short so i don't scratch people during facials....hehe, but i'm off for a month so i'm letting them grow long! woo!

i might paint them later.

I'm not too keen on bright coloured nails. The brightest shade I have is a hot pink fuchsia shade from Colorama which I only wear out to a special event at a club or something. Sometimes I wear classic red polish, but usually I prefer natural looking nails. I have different shades of nudes and french polish, an a few peach toned ones.

Chanel Black Satin is as crazy as I go!

 

[pugmommy7]

REVLON TIDAL WAVE. It is parrot es in a bottle!!!
It is in the quick dry forumla which is the only thing I hate

 

[LinzBelle]

I don't know if the "almost black" maroon vampy type color are "wierd", but I think they look sexy. I like Lincoln Park After Dark by OPI. I have tons of OPI which is my other passion.

 

[Juneplum]

^ OMG! lincoln park after dark is one of my FAVORITE colors EVER!!! that and eat'n eggplant by OPI.. LOVVVVVVEEEE!!!!!

 

[mzcelaneous]

I looooove Loreal's Prism nailpolish in Black Crystal. It's black with rainbow micro glitter

 

[queenofdisaster]
