I often stick to the same colours when it comes to painting my nails. I generally love wearing reds, mint greens and various shades of pink. However, I went through my make-up a few weeks back and came across some interesting shades of nail varnish which I hadn’t used. One of them was Warm Grey from Mavala. I’ll admit that it doesn’t look very exciting in the bottle (probably why I’d never used it) but once you’ve applied a thick coat to your nails it’s much more interesting.
I really like how this nail varnish looks against white and pastel shades. I’ve worn my mint polka dot dress and lots of pale pink and blue cardigans and my grey nail varnish really stands out. This nail varnish would also work well for work or meetings but still allow you to try something new on your nails.

I’m still wearing it now and I like catching sight of my grey nails typing away on the keyboard. It makes a nice change to be experimenting with new colours.
I’ve been a big fan of Mavala nail varnish for quite some time now. I find that adding a good top coat (I use the Mavala Fixator) makes the varnish last for a good few days, maybe longer if you’re not as clumsy as me. Anyway, that’s enough for now, I’ll be back with another nail varnish post in a few days (Ivory Beige).
You can find this nail varnish in good old John Lewis.
What colours have you been wearing on your nails this week?

Ooh I really like this! I really love neutrals though especially grey/taupe so I should really try this :).

I love grays and browns and deep,reds for A/W, deep pinks and bright reds for S/S. But I’ll wear any of them any time of year if the fancy takes me. I haven’t tried Mavala polishes yet, but that’s a pretty shade.
Ali, you must try Mavala. I find them really good and have been using them for a good few years now.
It’s a nice colour, I have a grey, it’s a bit lighter than this one, and I quite like it here and there 🙂 x
I haven’t thought of wearing grey nailpolish before, but I can see what you mean about it looking good with pastel shades!
Hi jane, give it a go. It really does make a nice change.
I have that polish! I don’t wear it much either, but then I love it when I do 🙂 there’s something cool and so edgy about grey nails x

I know, I couldn’t believe how lovely it looked. I kept looking at my nails all day. It’s been one of my faves for a while now.
