I’ve rarely gone without polish since I was about 13 so I’ve been through a lot of phases but the most consistent color in my collection has been blue. I’ve gone from the bright teals I wore when I was really young, to some cobalt and sparkly shades in high school but now that I’m 20 and in college I’ve been loving navy. It’s a real chameleon for nails. It goes from looking very polished while dressed up to quite edgy when I’m just wearing jeans and converse and I love that versatility.
Thanks for sharing Allison! I definitely had a big blue mood many years ago too - some shades will probably pop up in my 'all time favourites' video! 💙 x
You’ve literally inspired me to do my nails by myself and I absolutely love taking the time for myself to pamper and feel luxurious ❤️ thanks for this video! Love your work and passion 😊 hope you’re well!
I'm in my final year of uni and I already have a humongous wishlist of makeup, nail polishes, skin care and candles to buy once I start working. All thanks to Matilda, but I'm not complaining 🤷🏽♀️🤷🏽♀️😂😂😂😂
I love the idea of wearing red nail polish all the time. Since watching your manicure video, I purchased the Olive & June Mani kit and you're right - it's a game changer!! Keep the recos coming as always, Matilda! Love it
I love the final comparison (5:36-5:53) between the different shades, it really shows the difference between the different shades very well! My favourite and most worn shades during the last year are: - Essie Allure - Essie Ballet Slippers - Essie Sugar Daddy - Essie Wicked I am always on the hunt for the perfect classic red nail polish, that I can't seem to find. But after this video I think Essie Forever Yummy might be the one! Thank you for the great content :)
Thank you so much Giulia! I loved editing that final comparison too ☺️💅 Thanks for sharing your favourite shades - so many people mentioned Wicked so I'll have to take a look! x
You’ve been posting at the perfect time for me to catch your uploads as soon as you post them! You’ve been inspiring me to pay more attention to my nails lately 💘
It’s because of you and your nail videos that I take pleasure in taking care of my nails, polish or not. It’s also because of your recommendations that I’ve tried Olive & June, as well as Essie’s Gel Couture, and I cant get enough! I bought ELF’s concealer brush as a cheaper alternative for the cleanup after polishing and it works great. Thank you for making videos!
Hi Matilda ever since you posted that video I fell in love with Essie gel couture and bought my first polish and it was fairy tailor and quite frankly received a lot compliments and my nails looked so poised, thank you for introducing this shade
I've seen a lot of beauty youtubers, but you're one of the few I genuinely enjoy. Your videos are so nice and you always give simple nice concise reviews about products. I always look forward to seeing what you're gonna post next.
Oh my goodness, sending good thoughts to your left hand's nails after that! Thank you for sacrificing you nails for the good of RUclips--I love seeing your top shades!
Haha thank you Elle! My nails are all ok - gave that hand a break from polish over the weekend and made sure I used lots of hand cream and Olive & June cuticle serum as always! 👏 x
Yes! This video is what I am waiting for. HZ is my all time fav. It is the perfect pink for my warm brown skin tone. Ever since I saw your first nail video, I started to collect nail polishes again and do my mani. I like that you include nail swatches and thanks for recommending your favourite shades.
SO hooked on Olive and June because of you! I can't wait for their new releases, I own almost all of them now and feel like that's still not enough, haha.
Ohh thank you so much Kait, *love* hearing that! You know you're a big fan when they just launched a new collection three days ago, but you're already counting down until there are even more shades to choose from 😂💅 x
Nailpaint game changed forever when you first uploaded the nailpaint routine video... I always wear pinks from very faint to dark as I have yellow-green undertone
I have been biting my nails for years and you have insipired me to do my own nails and I must say it makes me feel so good! Taking the time to care after my nails makes me feel super fancy and I love it🥰💕 I haven't been picking at my nails for weeks now🥰
I got the essie gel couture polishes on your recommendation and I'm so amazed! I've never had a more seamless application with any nail polish before and the finish is so glossy! Before, I'd had issues with polishes bubbling and wrinkling even hours after applying but these have lasted so well!
I tend to lean towards either brighter colours - bright greens, blues, purples, pastels - pastel yellow (which is on my nails right now), baby blues and lilacs, or a classic white, black or brownish nude, but i do love a good lighter, more pink-toned nude or a deep berry red too! I tend to want something new a lot, so I like switching up my colours often. Your videos are so calming and great to do my nails while listening to, love from Western Australia 🤍
OMG! SO excited to hear you have worn Rock the Runway, I already have it and like it on my pale skin 💅🏻 Also, I bet this took forever to film! I really appreciate it 😅
Absolutely, I was wearing it in quite a few videos last year 😄👍 Thank you so much - surprisingly this wasn't even one of the longest videos I've made haha, swatching a long list of makeup takes much longer! x
YES!! More nail videos!! And for those of us who live in the country/ middle of nowhere- love the affordable/ Essie options!! I'm going to get a bunch of these tomorrow!! ❤👍
We have similar tastes in nailpolish brands and colors! I recently went to Japan and picked up a couple nude/pinks from Nailholic and their formula is fantastic. I highly recommend. : )
Hi Matilda. Love at home manicures. It is my Sunday night ritual to get ready for the work week. Your last video really inspired me to update my tools and assemble them in a kit rather than tossed in a drawer and I love it!
I love seeing what other people like to put on their nails even if we don't have similar color choices. I love bright or unusual colors on my nails. I have really been loving Cirque Colors because they are everything I want in a nail polish brand, they have fun unusual colors and some more classic shades.
Thanks for your relaxing wonderful videos Matilda. Your videos really makes me deal with my mental illness. I suffer from mental health issues which is getting unbearable for me. So I reach for your videos (old/new) sometimes when the illness hits me very bad.❤️❤️ Thank You.
Thank you so much for sharing this Tajrian. So sorry to hear you've been going through a tough time with your mental health - I've been there before. RUclips was often a big help for me so I'm so touched that my videos can be there for you. Wishing you all the best, look after yourself! ☺️👏 x
I just bought the Essie Gel Couture in Fairy Taylor yesterday! Looks great on you! Now I can't wait to do my nails with it! Thanks you for your wonderful videos! ❤️
I think I need the Olive & June brush you mentioned at the beginning of the video ❤️ I sometimes like to wear blue nail polish, Essie Aruba Blue is my favorite. And I love Fairy Tailor and Rock The Runway, too. Pale pinks and reds are my go-tos 😉 x
i always used to bite my nails but after watching your first nail polish video i got the courage to grow my nails out and now i always paint them my self and very proud of nail growth. :)) thanks ! 💖💖
Hi dear Matilda! I just love: Mademoiselle, Ballet Sleepers, Ford ver Yummy, Bubbles, & the darkest one. . . 😍😍😍💅💅💅 Since I was a child I couldn't be without my nails done! 😍😍😀😀😀
There’s no good place nearby for me to get my nails done so I’ve been doing them myself since more than an year and I always receive compliments. Manicure is supposed to be fun and relaxing but my first experience gave me nightmares; never getting my nails done ever again. Also, if anyone is looking for inexpensive alternative, L’Oréal Paris makes great polishes! They are seriously underrated!! Lovely video Matilda 😍
I just picked up a few of these Essie shades today! I also ordered the Olive & June studio box with HZ and then added CCT. How many coats of CCT are you wearing here?
Hope you enjoy them Joni! I'm actually wearing four light coats of CCT - more than I'd usually do but I wanted to bring the soft pink out even more and it worked well! 💅 x
I prefer using colourful nail polishes like pinks, golds and glitters since nails is my way of expressing fun and creativity. I used to get my nails done in the salon (usually gel nails) but I've been going less because its expensive and I rather do my nails at home which is relaxing and fun. Hope to see more nail related videos!
I’m a nail polish addict and have over 100 in my collection from over the years. I never like to stick to one color family for too long! I’m always changing colors in the whole color spectrum, from matte to shimmers, and all in between. I recommend you check out the brand Pacifica! They have beautiful colors and they’re a 7 free brand.
I started doing my nails for the first time since I was a kid and did them for fun. I was really skeptical before watching your videos and now I love the look of my nails with polish!
I just ordered Olive and June HZ & one of their reds. And more of the serum, love it!! Nail polish has (almost) beat out all other beauty except skincare! I always use whatever is left of my skincare on the back of my hands & cuticles. I love your nail routine/swatch videos & would be happy to see more!!
Hello there! What a cracking video Matilda... really into 💅🏻 right now. For years I struggled to paint my own nails and get them done professionally now but having watched your tutorial is making me think I’ll try again. My left hand always looked great, my right hand looked like I tipped the whole bottle over everything from the knuckle down 😱😱😱. With you on those colours though... reds through to deep plums are my go to! Can’t wait for more of these ...SYNT ❤️❤️❤️
Got essies fairy tailor after falling in love with it on you, one of the first polishes I've run through aside from black lol, defiantly going to be looking into more of the gel couture
Always very honest about my love of luxury and indie brands Linda, so unfortunately I don't use drugstore products very often. You'll find my edit in a Drugstore Favourites video on my channel 👍 and I tried a few more products in the US in 2019 so you’ll see those in future! x
I’m on the third bottle of Essie treat love& color , my favorite shade is 02 tinted love. Perfect sheer pink nude with gold sparkle which can only been seen under sunlight
Oh wow! I LOVE the reds! I’m a huge fan of Essie polishes - especially the Gel Couture formula. Unfortunately, I had a negative experience purchasing from Amazon - I think I got an old one because it goes on thick. I’ve been wanting to try Olive & June...those pale pinks! My polish M.O. is so standard:Short nails painted pale nude pink with toenails a classic red or vampy burgundy for fall/winter (OK, hot pink or orange in summer 😊). Have you tried Ella+Mila?
I looove your nail polish videos and am so glad you're doing more! I'm forever wearing shades of red on my nails and on the rare chance it's not that, it's some shade of blue. 😍
went to boots yesterday and bought essie in bubbles only because of your recommendation. I have to say that i absolutely love the colour! Thank you, Matilda☺️
Hello Matilda :) I loved all of the shades that you've shown and I would be interested to watch more similar videos. I think when it comes to nail polishes I usually have periods when I like certain colors a lot. I remember when I was a high school student I would always have perfect nails and I would only use two nude colors - one was pale peachy nude and the other ballerina pink - almost the same as your favorite nail color. Then in university I was obsessed with black nail polishes or similar to Rouge Noir by Chanel. and after I graduated I find that I have almost all Chanel & Dior nail polishes but I usually stick to wearing one color for a long time and then I change. xoxo
Thank you Angela! I've definitely gone through similar phases with colours too - I used to wear Noir Ceramic and Rouge Noir by Chanel all the time too! I might have to film an 'old favourites' video in future 😄🖤 x
I just ordered fairy taylor! Can't wait for it to arrive:) It looks like a dupe for OPI's bubble bath. My favorite nail combo is using the OPI bubble bath (3-4 layers) with one sheer layer of OPI Happy anniversary on top and it looks so sparkly and glossy/wet. I wanted to get bubble bath again but they have changed the formula to a more chalky pink so I've been looking for a dupe of their old color. This video helped my to decide on fairy taylor as the closest match. Thanks!
Wow! HZ looks different on me for certain. It definitely shows up a lot more pink on me with the slight neutral undertones peaking through. Thanks for sharing!
love love love this polish lineup! these days my favorite shades also fall pretty clearly into sheer nudes/pinks and bright, pure reds. i’ve also picked up some olive & june polishes on your rec and can’t wait to use them! great video as always matilda ❤️
I bought a bottle of Essie’s « Of Corset » after watching this video and I am in love with that nude colour! It is the perfect shade for my fair freckled skin! Pale pink nudes always look too flashy and... pink on my nails... of corset is the best nude for me 👍🏼
Loved this video. I would love to watch more nail polishes videos in your channel, specially swatches of all polishes you showed in your nail polish routine video.
You're the reason I've started using pale pink nail polish rather than my blues and purples. I love how pretty and clean it looks while still school dress code appropriate.
I did a little jump when I got the notification that you uploaded this video!!! I've been waiting for this video with bated breath ever since you did your nail polish routine video. Let me tell you that I have always HATED painting my own nails because I was so terrible at them (probably because I didn't know to use a top coat! Or a brush!) and there really wasn't very simple step-by-step nail tutorial videos when I was growing up. Since that video, I have compiled a very similar nail routine kit like yours (in an Aesop bag!) and have purchased Bubbles Only in the Gel Couture formula and it's my favourite! Such a beautiful glossy red... wish I could get some Olive and June in New Zealand, but maybe when someone visits from the States they can go on a Target run for me! Until then, I'll be trying out Essie's Licorice and Sew Me [not sold on this one yet :( ]. Thank you for introducing me to the at-home mani!!!!
Thank you! That would be a very long video 😂💅 I don't plan to film my entire collection but will definitely be sharing more concise nail polish videos soon x
Not sure unfortunately Kae, I've never worn gel polishes! But I don't believe so - Olive & June definitely do not make other polishes, and I don't think Essie do gels either. This is the closest both brands get because they're very long lasting 👍💅 x
Your voice is so soothing, definitely ASMR worthy.
Thank you so much Crystal! ☺️ x
yes, but definitely too fast!

As opposed to figurately inspired?
I'm in my final year of uni and I already have a humongous wishlist of makeup, nail polishes, skin care and candles to buy once I start working. All thanks to Matilda, but I'm not complaining 🤷🏽♀️🤷🏽♀️😂😂😂😂
Haha thank you Ammara! My beauty life definitely changed when I wasn't a student anymore 😄 x
I love the idea of wearing red nail polish all the time. Since watching your manicure video, I purchased the Olive & June Mani kit and you're right - it's a game changer!! Keep the recos coming as always, Matilda! Love it
So good to hear that Kristen! Glad you're loving your O&J too 👏 Which shades did you pick? x
@@matildaonvideo just ordered the entire spring collection! 😬 And am loving the red JG
I love the final comparison (5:36-5:53) between the different shades, it really shows the difference between the different shades very well! My favourite and most worn shades during the last year are:
- Essie Allure
- Essie Ballet Slippers
- Essie Sugar Daddy
- Essie Wicked
I am always on the hunt for the perfect classic red nail polish, that I can't seem to find. But after this video I think Essie Forever Yummy might be the one!
Thank you for the great content :)

Lovely to hear that Sonia! Glad you're enjoying Fairy Tailor too ☺️💅 How special that it was your first polish! x
THANK YOU. As a regular viewer, this upload has made me very happy!
Also, YES to more swatching videos
Thank you so much Christina! 😄💅 x
I've seen a lot of beauty youtubers, but you're one of the few I genuinely enjoy. Your videos are so nice and you always give simple nice concise reviews about products. I always look forward to seeing what you're gonna post next.

Thanks to you I've decided to do my own nails. Definitely a bit of a learning curve but so worth it!
Ohh that's so nice to hear Juliana, thank you! Definitely takes a bit of practice but I'm glad you're getting there ☺️👏 x
Now I really want to try all these polishes 😭
Thank you Silvia, glad you liked the shades! ☺️💅 x
Hullo there!! Lovely color selection, I must admit! I also love Fairy Tailor-can you tell that you and I have very similar color preferences?
Glad you love Fairy Tailor too! 💅 x
Yes please more nail color content - great channel evolution. I would enjoy seeing the new Olive & June spring collection please.
Thank you so much Victoria! I'll try to work on that video next in my nail series ☺️🌸 x
Forever yummy is my favorite red! I’ve been wearing it since my prom a few years back; it perfectly matched the red flowers on the black skirt! ❤️❤️❤️
Ohh so nice to hear that La'Kota! I love the memories that can be attached to nail polish, just like makeup ☺️💅 x
IKR!!! It is my fav nail polish of all time!❤️🍒
Yes! This video is what I am waiting for. HZ is my all time fav. It is the perfect pink for my warm brown skin tone. Ever since I saw your first nail video, I started to collect nail polishes again and do my mani. I like that you include nail swatches and thanks for recommending your favourite shades.
Thank you Jay, so nice to hear you're loving HZ too! 👏💅 x
Omg I literally painted my nails yesterday!!! Love these colors!
Thank you Krystal! 😄💅 x
SO hooked on Olive and June because of you! I can't wait for their new releases, I own almost all of them now and feel like that's still not enough, haha.
and I'm wearing HZ right now :)
Ohh thank you so much Kait, *love* hearing that! You know you're a big fan when they just launched a new collection three days ago, but you're already counting down until there are even more shades to choose from 😂💅 x
Nailpaint game changed forever when you first uploaded the nailpaint routine video... I always wear pinks from very faint to dark as I have yellow-green undertone
Thank you so much Shar, amazing to hear! 😄💅 x
this is such a great addition to your nail routine video!!
Thank you! Many more nail videos to come ☺️💅 x
I'm watching this as I'm painting my nails hahahaha
That is my DREAM, Jessica! So happy to join you while you paint 😄💅 x
Lovely shades. I wear a lot of pink shades usually. Shimmery or darker ones for festive days! 💜
Sounds great! 💅 x
I have been biting my nails for years and you have insipired me to do my own nails and I must say it makes me feel so good! Taking the time to care after my nails makes me feel super fancy and I love it🥰💕 I haven't been picking at my nails for weeks now🥰
yes yes yes! please do more contents on nail polish. I'm not a huge make-up fan but I'm really into nail polishes
Thank you Jessica! Definitely planning more polish content ☺️💅 x

Absolutely, I was wearing it in quite a few videos last year 😄👍 Thank you so much - surprisingly this wasn't even one of the longest videos I've made haha, swatching a long list of makeup takes much longer! x

Thank you Krista! Absolutely, Essie is one of my absolute favourite brands! 👏💅 x
So glad to see all these polishes from $8/$12 not crazy expensive!
Absolutely! Plenty of great polish brands available at the drugstore 👍💅 x
We have similar tastes in nailpolish brands and colors! I recently went to Japan and picked up a couple nude/pinks from Nailholic and their formula is fantastic. I highly recommend. : )
Ooh thanks for the tip Angie! Hoping to visit Japan in future so I'll keep an eye out 😄💅 x
I tried the essie nail polish, it’s actually a really good nail polish especially if you pair it with the top coat they offer too!!!
Glad you enjoy them too! 😄💅 x
Hi Matilda. Love at home manicures. It is my Sunday night ritual to get ready for the work week. Your last video really inspired me to update my tools and assemble them in a kit rather than tossed in a drawer and I love it!

I have really been loving Cirque Colors because they are everything I want in a nail polish brand, they have fun unusual colors and some more classic shades.
Thanks for sharing Lauren! Isn't it interesting? We can all have such different go-to colours! 🎨💅 x

Thank you so much Emma, great to hear! Definitely planning more soon ☺️💅 x
You introduced me to Olive and June and wow! The polish lasts so well. I now have 4 bottles.
Yay, so happy to hear that Lily! 😄👏 Which shades did you pick? x
@@matildaonvideo I have BI, ECC, GH, and CDJ. I like more neutral shades that are great for work. But those reds....might be in my future.
So true constantly switching from fairy Taylor and of corset
Glad you enjoy those two shades as well! ☺️💅 x
I just bought the Essie Gel Couture in Fairy Taylor yesterday! Looks great on you! Now I can't wait to do my nails with it! Thanks you for your wonderful videos! ❤️
Thank you Brigitte, lovely to hear! Enjoy your next nail routine 😄💅 x
I love yellow and green colors, especially a golden yellow or a olive green. Those are my favorite eyeshadow colors as well!
Ooh interesting! 🎨 x
These are the colours I gravitate to now. Reds, natural pinks and soft sheer white.
Sounds lovely! ☺️💅 x
I think I need the Olive & June brush you mentioned at the beginning of the video ❤️ I sometimes like to wear blue nail polish, Essie Aruba Blue is my favorite. And I love Fairy Tailor and Rock The Runway, too. Pale pinks and reds are my go-tos 😉 x
Thanks for sharing Marie! I used to love blue back in the day too 💙 Their clean up brush has been such a huge help! x

Thank you Marina! 😄💅 x
Love this, Matilda - such a fun video!
The colours are definitely very you - sheer pinks, a touch of peach, and lots of bold reds.
Thank you Michelle! Very true 😄❤️ x

Thank you Gina! Hope you enjoy your new Olive & June shades. I can never have too many back ups of their cuticle serum, I'm addicted! 👏 x
My all time fave is Chanel Particuliere, an unique brown/grey shade.
I love that shade too Yara! 👏 x

Nice video ! We have very similar moods: either nude or red. My favorites are Essie Lady Like and Essie Really Red.
I love Really Red too! ❤️ x
This video was extremely satisfying to watch
Thank you so much Dian! Lovely to hear that ☺️💅 x
Would you say Essie Rock the Runway is very similar in colour to Olive & June's CV? (Kind of a yellowy red to me)
What a classy selection of colours, Matilda! Fairy Tailor is one of my go-tos as well (alongside Mademoiselle). Brilliant content as always 💕
Thank you so much Kat! I'll have to take a look at Mademoiselle next time 😉💅 x
Love the red polishes! But do any of them stain your nails?
I always apply base coat to help avoid any staining! ☺️💅 x
Please do more nail polish video. I find them very aesthetically pleasing (like all of your vids lol) and satisfying
Thank you! Definitely planning more polish content 💅 x
Got essies fairy tailor after falling in love with it on you, one of the first polishes I've run through aside from black lol, defiantly going to be looking into more of the gel couture
So nice to hear Abby! Glad you're loving that shade too 💅 x
So glad there's another polish vid! Really enjoying them💖
Thank you Malika! Many more to come 😄💅 x
I just bought a Essie gel couture and I’m excited to try it out! ❤️❤️
Hope you enjoy it! 😄💅 x
I picked up Olive & June's HZ today and I love it, pinkish nude polishes are great on fair skin tones.
Could you please do some kind of drugstore affordable minimal makeup haul? Brands like maybelline, essence, catrice... I would love to see that💕
Always very honest about my love of luxury and indie brands Linda, so unfortunately I don't use drugstore products very often. You'll find my edit in a Drugstore Favourites video on my channel 👍 and I tried a few more products in the US in 2019 so you’ll see those in future! x
Always love your videos, Matilda! But I have to admit, your nail videos are my favorite! 💕💕
Thank you so much Catrina! So nice to hear that 😄💅 x
I’m on the third bottle of Essie treat love& color , my favorite shade is 02 tinted love. Perfect sheer pink nude with gold sparkle which can only been seen under sunlight
Ooh I haven't come across that shade before! Sounds lovely Lizzy ✨ x
Oh wow! I LOVE the reds! I’m a huge fan of Essie polishes - especially the Gel Couture formula. Unfortunately, I had a negative experience purchasing from Amazon - I think I got an old one because it goes on thick. I’ve been wanting to try Olive & June...those pale pinks! My polish M.O. is so standard:Short nails painted pale nude pink with toenails a classic red or vampy burgundy for fall/winter (OK, hot pink or orange in summer 😊). Have you tried Ella+Mila?
Thanks for sharing Val! Glad you're an Essie fan too ☺️💅 I haven't come across Ella+Mila before! x
I looove your nail polish videos and am so glad you're doing more! I'm forever wearing shades of red on my nails and on the rare chance it's not that, it's some shade of blue. 😍
Thank you Sky! Glad you're a red polish person too 💅❤️ x
The olive and June are my favvvvv 😍
Such lovely shades! 💅 x
went to boots yesterday and bought essie in bubbles only because of your recommendation. I have to say that i absolutely love the colour! Thank you, Matilda☺️
So nice to hear, thank you Katie! Hope you enjoy wearing it 😄❤️ x
Hello Matilda :) I loved all of the shades that you've shown and I would be interested to watch more similar videos. I think when it comes to nail polishes I usually have periods when I like certain colors a lot. I remember when I was a high school student I would always have perfect nails and I would only use two nude colors - one was pale peachy nude and the other ballerina pink - almost the same as your favorite nail color. Then in university I was obsessed with black nail polishes or similar to Rouge Noir by Chanel. and after I graduated I find that I have almost all Chanel & Dior nail polishes but I usually stick to wearing one color for a long time and then I change. xoxo
Thank you Angela! I've definitely gone through similar phases with colours too - I used to wear Noir Ceramic and Rouge Noir by Chanel all the time too! I might have to film an 'old favourites' video in future 😄🖤 x
I just ordered fairy taylor! Can't wait for it to arrive:) It looks like a dupe for OPI's bubble bath. My favorite nail combo is using the OPI bubble bath (3-4 layers) with one sheer layer of OPI Happy anniversary on top and it looks so sparkly and glossy/wet. I wanted to get bubble bath again but they have changed the formula to a more chalky pink so I've been looking for a dupe of their old color. This video helped my to decide on fairy taylor as the closest match. Thanks!
Thank you Liz! Enjoy your next mani ☺️💅 x
Wow! HZ looks different on me for certain. It definitely shows up a lot more pink on me with the slight neutral undertones peaking through. Thanks for sharing!
Thank you Monique, isn't that interesting! Always good to hear how a product looks on someone else ☺️👍 x
My favourite nail colours are black, dark blue, dark grey and this gorgeous nude beige colour that goes with my dark skin tone 😊
Thanks for sharing Rach! 😄💅 x
That Essie #40 is my all time favorite sheer. I use it all the time! Love all these videos!
Glad you love Fairy Tailor too! 💅 x
love love love this polish lineup! these days my favorite shades also fall pretty clearly into sheer nudes/pinks and bright, pure reds. i’ve also picked up some olive & june polishes on your rec and can’t wait to use them! great video as always matilda ❤️
Thank you Gina! Hope you enjoy your Olive & June - which shades did you pick? 😄💅 x
Matilda i went for bp (a dusty pale blue) and gh (a light peachy pink)! super excited to start playing with these ❤️
Just picked up my second bottle of fairy tailor. It's such a perfect color
Isn't it gorgeous Sarah! Glad you're a fan of it too ☺️💅 x
I bought a bottle of Essie’s « Of Corset » after watching this video and I am in love with that nude colour! It is the perfect shade for my fair freckled skin! Pale pink nudes always look too flashy and... pink on my nails... of corset is the best nude for me 👍🏼
So glad you love it too Érine! ☺️💅 x
I loooove Essie nail polish 😍✨
Glad you're a fan of Essie too Angelina! ☺️💅 x
Loved this video. I would love to watch more nail polishes videos in your channel, specially swatches of all polishes you showed in your nail polish routine video.
Thank you Giovanna! Definitely planning to work my way through different colour groups in my collection this year 💅👍 x
I’m so happy I found your channel
You're the reason I've started using pale pink nail polish rather than my blues and purples. I love how pretty and clean it looks while still school dress code appropriate.
Ohh so nice to hear! Glad you're enjoying that shade ☺️💅 x
I did a little jump when I got the notification that you uploaded this video!!! I've been waiting for this video with bated breath ever since you did your nail polish routine video. Let me tell you that I have always HATED painting my own nails because I was so terrible at them (probably because I didn't know to use a top coat! Or a brush!) and there really wasn't very simple step-by-step nail tutorial videos when I was growing up. Since that video, I have compiled a very similar nail routine kit like yours (in an Aesop bag!) and have purchased Bubbles Only in the Gel Couture formula and it's my favourite! Such a beautiful glossy red... wish I could get some Olive and June in New Zealand, but maybe when someone visits from the States they can go on a Target run for me! Until then, I'll be trying out Essie's Licorice and Sew Me [not sold on this one yet :( ]. Thank you for introducing me to the at-home mani!!!!
Thank you so much Meilin, that's wonderful to hear! So glad you're enjoying your new routine 😄💅 x
Ooh loved this selection!! Especially that lovely dark red Olive and June shade :) Those types of colours are my favourites to use!!
Thank you Chloe! SC is a beauty 😍 x
I love your nails videos! plis do more about this
Thank you Lucia! Definitely planning more nail content 💅 x
I got fairy taylor because I loved the color on you. It lasts so long and its the perfect pinky nude!
Ohh so nice to hear Yulia! It's such a classic ☺️💅 x
May I know all the other nail polish colors that you have plus their swatches? I really like the cllors you've picked
Thank you! That would be a very long video 😂💅 I don't plan to film my entire collection but will definitely be sharing more concise nail polish videos soon x
@@matildaonvideo thanks!!! Will be looking forward for it!! 😊
Will be picking up some Olive and June when I go to LA this year. Excited to try.
Nice to hear Naz, enjoy your visit! ✈️💅 x
Hey Matilda. Do each of these polishes have a gel version?
Not sure unfortunately Kae, I've never worn gel polishes! But I don't believe so - Olive & June definitely do not make other polishes, and I don't think Essie do gels either. This is the closest both brands get because they're very long lasting 👍💅 x
Hi , do you have any favorite Opi nude or peach color polish? 🥰
I love OPI Samoan Sand and You've Got Nata On Me 👍💅 x
Where did you get that little nail caddy?? It’s the perfect size
You'll find this toolbox listed in the description box of my at-home mani tutorial! ☺️💅 x
your videos are my fav to watch after finishing my studying! X
Thank you so much! I used to love treating myself to some RUclips videos after I finished studying too ☺️👏 x
