I thought I'd buy my niece some nail polish to wrap with her gift card for her birthday. What's the favorite polish brand? What colors would a girl of 14 like? Thanks. ***ETA** Thanks everyone for your thoughts. I went and looked online and took craftmepink's suggestion and got the Breakfast at Tiffanys collection. Plus maryland's suggestion of a good base and top coat. |

Most women like OPI Essie or zoya.... but for a younger girl... i would go for sinful colors the Kylie Jenner collection... you can find them at Walmart Target or stores like that

It seems like Consumer Reports put Sinful Colors ($1.99) a Best Buy. You can buy it at Target or Walmart I think. Maybe some stores like Rite Aid. Our CVS doesn't carry that brand. My teens have used that brand and really like it. It's a great price and if you don't like it, you didn't spend much.
We also like the expensive ones like OPI, Essie, Zoya. So if she is really into nail polish, maybe get her a good base or top coat. We like one called Sticky for basecoat and Seche Vite top coat. You can get them at nail salons and sometimes the top coat at Target. They are about $8-$10 each.

I really like the idea of getting a good base and top coat with them. Thanks. |

DD (12.5) has asked for Essie pastels colors for Christmas. Not saying the colors are necessarily what your niece would like but that is a popular brand among the tween/teens.

I have some of the sinful colors myself I get a good 4-5 days out of them. I like them with a good base coat as a backdrop color for those clear things in them polishes. One of my fave combinations is sinful colors Nirvana (beige ) with sinful colors love splash over the top (clear with pink heart sequins in it ) www.sinfulcolors.com/productMain/colorDetails/119 |

OPI, they have some cute mini sets at Ulta for sale. I love the Breakfast at Tiffany's OPI collection at Ulta. The Tiffany blue color is so pretty! I think any age would like the colors featured. |

My 15-year-old loves the Kylie Jenner matte nail polish. She would probably love the Breakfast at Tiffany one craftmepink suggested. |

Thanks for the suggestion, The Tiffany blue color is so pretty! That blue is gorgeous. I could see my dd and my niece and myself wearing it. . I saw some gift packs at Target the other day. I totally forgot to look at the stores yesterday. |
