10 Fun Nail Polish Names

Publish date: 2024-04-10

When we pick out a polish for our nails, of course we’re looking at the different shades, but it’s almost even more fun to turn to the bottom of the bottle. Some of our favorite nail polishes out there got to be our favorites because of their names. In fact, when we wear them, we secretly can’t wait for someone to ask what color we have on, just so we can reveal the playful title.

We’re always on the hunt for the best named nail polishes, and we couldn’t help but share some of our favorites. So, take a look, pick a shade, and have a laugh, because watching paint dry has never been so entertaining.
