Spring Nail Picks



The weather may still be a little cool, but there is no easier way in my opinion, to get into the springtime mood than expressing seasonal colours through a painted nail. Pretty pops of pastel on my nails just makes me so happy, and give me hope that the cold Melbourne winter will break eventually and the sun will come out! These are my favourite colours for this spring. (PS no I am not sponsored by Essie, I just purchased a lot of Essie nail colour when I was in the States recently)

Left to Right: Mint Candy Apple, Mojito Madness, Fiji, Tart Deco, You're Such a Budapest
1. Essie Mint Candy Apple- This soft blue/minty hue is so pretty and I have nothing else like it in my collection.  

2. Essie Mojito Madness- I have never owned a colour like this before. I am so excited to try out this bright emerald shade this spring. Emerald is also the Pantone Colour of the Year, so this is an easy way to rock the emerald trend without shelling out for more expensive clothing items.

3. Essie Fiji- This is a favourite in the beauty community and I am sure everybody is well aware of it. Fiji is the perfect baby pink in my opinion, although I have trouble with the consistency of the formula, so I recommend keeping this chilled in the fridge and you will probably need to apply 3 coats.

4. Essie Tart Deco- I cannot wait to sport this peachy apricot hue. I think this colour would look so HOT with a tan! (faux of course!). PS how adorable is the name!

5. OPI You're Such a Budapest- This shade is from OPI's Euro Centrale Collection. I feel like lavenders and periwinkles are just quintessentially spring and this nail varnish is definitely the even prettier love child of the two shades.

What are your favourite nail colours for spring?
