Easter Pastels
With Easter this week I thought I would share a fun nail look which anyone can achieve but is also a great way to share five beautiful pastel shades with you. This isn't really a work appropriate nail but it's great for anyone that is on half term from school/uni or someone that wants something a little more fun for the four-day weekend.
Three of the shades were from the new S/S15 Gosh range, which is a high-shine and fast drying line made up of seven colours. I used Pretty Ballerina, French Dream and Sunkissed which all applied well with two/three coats which is pretty standard from a pastel polish but dried very quickly too (I also used Snow White for the dots). At only £3.99 they are a great option if you are looking for affordable polishes.
Also affordable is the Collection 7 Day Wear polish which I used in Ice admittedly this is a little bit streakier but look great after three thin coats and is a really beautiful pastel robin egg blue,
Quality wise I really love the Nails Inc Gel Effect polishes (Nails Inc have some truly beautiful new shades which I will hopefully share soon!) and although they are more expensive they are worth the extra ££, especially if it is a shade you will get lots of wear from. The pigmentation is excellent requiring only two thin coats but the high-shine is really comparable to that of a gel manicure. I used the shade Seven Dials which although isn't to everyones taste I find really brightens up the other colours.
