My Most Worn Nude Nail Polishes

Choosing the right nude nail polish can sometimes be tricky. I've tried a ton of flesh tones and not everything looks good on me. The definition of "nude", for me varies from browns to beiges to light pinks.These are my current favourite three nude polishes that I almost, always reach for. 

"Barefoot in Barcelona" by OPI.

"Touch of Mauve" by Revlon.

"Quick Sand" by Sally Hansen Insta-Dri.

Out of these, "Barefoot in Barcelona" has got to be my favourite. I am not a fan of the wide brush that OPI has since, I have small fingers and the brush is a little too wide for me. But, the application is a joy. Must-try if you like fleshy tones.

I know, my cuticles need some oil. Just wanted to show a quick swatch."A touch of Mauve" is a great pinkish-nude and applies really well. Although, it needs a good three coats to get a nice finish.

"Quick Sand" is my least favourite of the three. I like the color but, the application is a little streaky. And since, it has some shimmer, removing it is painful as hell. I like the SH Insta-Dri polishes as such but, the wide brush is a little weird.

L-R: Touch of Mauve, Quick Sand.
All these are work-safe, totally understated, beautiful shades. Revlon is Formaldehyde and Toluene free. Sally Hansen and OPI are Formaldehyde, Toluene and DBP free.

Which of these polishes do you like the most? What are your favourite nude nail polishes? I'd love to know!

The Body Shop Fuzzy Peach Bath & Shower Gel

'Fuzzy Peach Bath & Shower Gel' is one of the most affordable shower gels  from The Body Shop.I do find most TBS shower gels to be rather pricey for everyday use and tend to buy them when on sale.This one has a beautiful scent and leaves a light, fresh aroma in my bathroom.It did not smell that attractive in the bottle. However, it lathers up to a really nice and crisp scent.

I love the way the whole originals line is packaged. They look so colorful and cute! 

What I like about this shower gel:

• Lovely Scent. Fresh, clean, fruity and not at all over powering. Just the right mix of everything!
• A little goes a long way - lathers really well. I just need a few squirts on a loofah/bath sponge.
• Non-drying. I don't have that stretchy feeling some shower gels give.But, feels really clean and fresh at the same time.  
• Not so pricey as per TBS standards($5.99 for 8.4 fl oz/250mL) and does go on sale quite often. 
• Nice packaging - Very practical to be used in the shower.

The not so great things about this shower gel:

• The texture is quite watery.  

Apart from that, I just LOVE this shower gel. It's worth trying out, at least for the pleasant fragrance. Try it, I am sure you won't regret it ever.

My thoughts on MAC Sheertone Blush in Sincere & Swatches

MAC Sheertone blush in Sincere is one of those blushes that looks blah in the pan but looks totally gorgeous once applied.  I went to the MAC store to just pick up Gingerly but, the MUA asked me to try Gingerly on one cheek and Sincere on the other since she thought Sincere would look better on me. Had I not tried, I would have never picked this shade up. I LOVED the way it looked on me and immediately changed my mind from Gingerly to Sincere. Although, I might also get Gingerly sometime later.

This is a shade that will look amazing especially on medium skin tones and is totally work-safe. If blush and bronzer had a baby, it would look like Sincere. It's that perfect color which adds a nice glow and some warmth at the same time. MAC describes this shade as a Muted Beige/Coral. I would say it's more of a tanned peach.

If you are looking for an everyday blush that needs very less effort and looks amazingly natural, this is a must-have. 

Let the blah-ness in the pan not fool you from picking this up. It's a gorgeous shade and one of my favorite blushes from MAC.
