UNDER $10

Essie

I love Essie polishes because they come in such a wide range of shades and colours! Spring is all about pastels and I find that Essie is the brand I always run to if I'm looking for a new pastel. The polishes apply very smoothly and usually reach opacity around 2 coats( 3 for sheerer colours). The polishes range from $6-$9 depending on where you buy it.

My favourite spring colour from Essie would have to be Mint Candy Apple! Its just so fresh and totally reminds me of spring!

UNDER $5


Sally Hansen Insta-DRI
My Insta-DRI collection (:
To say I love these polishes would be an understatement. I love EVERYTHING about these polishes. For one, they come in amazingly fun and bright colours which instantly screams spring! I always get compliments when I wear a colour from this line and I recommend these to everyone. Another great thing about the Insta-DRI is the brush! Here's what is looks like:

They are very big and flat and I love that. Beacuse the brush is so big, you literally apply the polish in 2 strokes! I always do left and right. Also, these polishes last SO long! I have gone without chips for a WHOLE WEEK(with top coat of course)! But still that is quite amazing. And they dry SUPER fast. I could go on all day about these! These might just be my HG. 

Below are my favourite spring colours from the Insta-DRI line:


Insta-DRI: Lickety-Split Lime

Insta-DRI: Lemon Dash

Insta-Dri: Lively Lilac

UNDER $2!!!


NYC

 Last up are the SUPER AFFORDABLE NYC long wearing and quick dry polishes. They come in some fun spring colours, I especially love their pinks and corals. In my opinion these polishes are comparable in quality to the more expensive drug store brands like Revlon. These polishes are NEVER over $2 and sometime even go on sale for under $1!!!

Below is my favourite spring colour from NYC:

Final Recommendations

You all know by now that my favourites are the Insta-DRI but honestly all of these polishes are amazing. Check them out the next time you are at your local drug store and happy spring!!
