If you read my latest post on Summer Blushes, you know that my favourite blush colours for summer are coral, pinks & peaches. Same with my nails, I just can't get enough!

On my thumb I'm wearing OPI On Collins Avenue, yup Miami baby! I think this polish was from the South Beach Collection, Revlon's Craving Coral looks kinda the same except it has more orange in it (on my middle finger).
On my index im wearing Mac Play Day which is a pale milky coral creme, very sheer. I used 4+ coats to get a bold colour! Not so good but i loved the result. On my ring finger it's OPI And This Little Piggy which is a sheer pink glittery colour. And on my pinky i have the Sally Hansen's Fuschia Power, it has a very good application and I only needed two coats to get it right.

What are you wearing on your nails this summer?

Picks: Top 4 Summer Blushes

The truth is, that i wear these blushes all year long, but during summertime i like peachy-rose-coral-pink toned blushes. Also, i enjoy creme blushes since they're very hydrating. I've selected four of my most used blushes, so onto the colours!

Mac Cremeblend Blush in Posey: This is a warm peach and it's very buildable. I love the formula, it's creamy but not sticky and leaves a very natural finish on my cheeks.
Mac Blushcreme in Ladyblush:  I absolutely love this warm neutral coral, it lasts very long and looks very natural. This formula is a little bit more creamy than the Cremeblend blushes.
Mac Mineralize Blush in Gleeful: I love it when blushes have shimmery and golden flicks, Mac describes this blush as deep dirty blue pink with gold pearl. Generally, mineralize blushes are very lightweight and sheer. However, this one has a very good pigmentation (which is good).
NARS blush in Orgasm: And of course, my all time favourite blush (so predictable) Orgasm is peachy pink with golden shimmer. Also mentioned in my June Faves.
