The Pastel Nail Edit |

As an avid nail painter and pastel enthusiast, Summer cannot come quick enough when it comes to nail trends. For me, light blues, pinks and greens are prominent throughout my nail polish collection and during the hotter months, If I'm not wearing a pastel shade, I'm probably not wearing anything on my nails at all. 

Essie - Fiji | £7.99 | Link | Since buying Fiji a few years back my Essie obsession has continued to grow and my collection has expanded, but Fiji is still the one shade that I come back to every Summer. As soon as the sun comes out, I crack this one out of my collection, it's fail safe shade goes perfect with all skin tones and looks instantly sophisticated and chic.  

Barry M Speedy Quick Dry - Eat My Dust | £3.99 | Link | I have been donning this icy blue shade for weeks now. You know a nail polish is good when every time it chips you keep reapplying. Quick dry formulas always capture my attention, but does the expectations live up to the reality? Absolutely. If you're on your way out of the door, three coats of this and you're good to go and even though the multiple coats would normally bother me, but as they dry in a matter of seconds I'm far from bothered with applying this baby blue shade. 

Essie - Mint Candy Apple | £7.99 | Link | Described as a "Creme de menthe" shade, this cult classic has been and will be seen on many nails throughout the Summer. Even though this shade is the heavier of the three, the non sickly looking shade is perfect for anyone looking for a minty shade that compliments and can be worn by many. The complimenting blue undertones and glossy finish makes for a quick and simple application that will no doubt get you a few compliments along the way.
