TBT: "All-time favorite" polishes from 2016

I was rummaging around in old planners and I found a list from late 2016 of my all-time favorite polishes. This may have made it into the blog in some shorter form, or not - I poked around and didn't see anything like that offhand. But I thought it was interesting because there were so many polishes here that I'd pretty much forgotten about completely! (Others of these I've talked about ad nauseum - I'll add some pictures and links to this as well, although I'm not promising links to every single one. I have pages for that.) (Above: PS VT-100)

So here's my "long-list" of all-time favorites, three years ago. I sorted them by brand here (but I also put the full list at the bottom of this entry the way I originally wrote it down). I don't think I really started buying indies until 2015 or so, which is why there's not very many of those.

Indies

Mainstream (meaning, for my purposes, brands you can easily find in a store)

Boutique, overseas, other
*I actually destashed An Affair In Red Square a while back, not because I didn't like it any more but because I felt like I had other things that were more or less dupes for it, and I wasn't wearing it. But I still think it's awesome.

I dug in my pictures and found these, from 2015. This is Lynnderella Blue Rouge over something pale:
 
Aurora Borealis over Zoya Cynthia:


RBL Bubblegum Punk on its own (I've mostly worn it as a top-coat, though - as you can see, it's super-sheer):

Nfu Oh #51 over Zoya Neeka:

RBL Scrangie 2.0:

    Nice picks. I do love Alcatraz Rocks myself - great texture and colourful too :-D

    I think I need more Zoyas in my life though ;-)
