PASTEL PERFECT: Face of Australia Pastel nail polishes

Face of Australia Pastel nail polishs

Monkey see, monkey do. Or in my case: monkey see nail polish on other beauty blogs, monkey spends an entire lunch break traipsing around various Priceline stores looking for Face of Australia pastel nail polishes. I saw these nail polishes pop up on blogs a month or so back, but couldn’t find them in stores and gave up looking. The collection popped up on Ponikuta last week and I immediately went out lacquer hunting! The shelves at Priceline were picked clean and looking beyond bare by the time I got there, but I snagged the last two polishes to try out.

Face of Australia Pastel nail polish in Easy Peasy Lemon Squeezy

Easy Peasy Lemon Squeezy is a cool lemon yellow pastel cream. I used three thin coats to get a full colour finish; the first two coats were a little streaky, but three was a charm. At first I thought it was going to be identical to China Glaze’s Lemon Fizz, but Easy Peasy Lemon Squeezy is much cooler and lighter compared to Lemon Fizz’s egg yolk yellow.

. Face of Australia Pastel nail polish in Boys ‘N’ Berries

Boys ‘N’ Berries is a cool lavender pastel cream. Normally I struggle a little with pale purple polishes due to having such a pink complexion – if I’m not careful I get alien hands! – but this polish was a dream to wear. No alien hands and no ruddiness. I used two thin coats for a full finish.
