I started with the incredibly beautiful Curtain Street by Nails Inc- a baby pink with a matte finish.
Depending on your personal taste, you may either like this polish or find it too sickeningly sweet and cutsie. For me, I think the matte finish just gave the polish a certain edge. Of course, one of the best things about mattes is that they don't require topcoat. However, I of course wanted to test how versatile this polish is, and therefore painted a glossy topcoat on two of my nails.
Like it with the topcoat?! I do! Looking at the two glossy fingernails, do they remind you of a certain recent OPI nail varnish that I reviewed here. Yep that's right, doesn't it look uncannily like OPI's Pink Friday? I just had to crack out my bottle of Pink Friday to compare.

I thought I would throw the Chanel varnish into the mix, because in my memory I remembered it as a soft baby pink. But its not. Its more of dusky rose colour that is even deeper looking in reality. Still pretty, but this is a warm shade, whereas the other two polishes are cool. No prizes for guessing the the Chanel varnish suits my skin tone a lot better, and doesn't make my fingers look like little lobsters!
So what do you think peeps? Can you recommend me any soft pretty pinks ready for my easter nail art session? Feel free to leave a comment!
