Pretty pastels to get you in the mood for the spring and summer seasons.

Pretty Pastelles

Chanel showcased pretty floral and pastel hues on pre season summer catwalks and they are certainly set to be a big hit this summer. Greens, powdery blues, baby pinks and soft lilacs are all on the fashion agenda and work perfectly with spring and summer floral prints.

Cosmetic brand Illamasqua has introduced a range of perfect pastel colours for this year. The exciting new line of Pastel Nail Varnishes have just been released and there is already a waiting list.

Shades and tones featured in the newly showcased line include Caress, Very Unique Wink, Blow and Nudge.

Caress offers a pretty cornflower blue shade that is a delicious mixture of subtle blue and grey tones. Very Unique Wink combines a girly feminine shade with hints of lavender notes. Blow captures lots of lemony tones that are close to that of lemon sorbet and Nudge is a mint fresh ice cream green colour.

These colours are a definite hit for this season and add a little excitement and girly brightness to any look; they can be worn alone or mixed and matched as each shade perfectly compliments the other.

These are the first four pastel nail lacquers to be launched from the make-up brand and there are suggestions of even more shades to be added to the mix. These are all due to be revealed for the spring and summer 2010 trends.

Each polish offers great even coverage and all have a high consistency and pigmentation. They are available to purchase both online and in store from the make-up brand Illamasqua.
