Got any good greiges?

Just back from a quick trawl of the nearest Superdrug, hoping to find a Particuliere doppelganger for less than a fiver... but no luck.
There are tons of great brights, even some pastel greens, and a couple of fab nudes, like Rimmel Lycra Pro in Beige Style and Mini Bourjois Nail Polish in Emplettes a New York, but not a good greige in sight.
Personally, I'm averse to shimmer in nail polish (unless it's completely full-on) so I'm looking for a nice creamy-taupey-greyish-brown.
But the good news is No7 Speed Dry Nail Colour in Beanie, £6.25, went on counter this week - I suggest you snap it up, it's a great mushroomy griege with good staying power. Also still loving OPI You Don't Know Jacques, and Essie Chinchilly. You got any good greiges?

  4. That's beautiful! I will hunt it down this weekend.

    Butter London Fash Pack, Orly Country Club Khaki and Nails Inc. Jermyn Street are all lovely Greiges. None as bargainous as that No7 though!
