 NCLA released a collection not long ago, inspired by fresh and healthy juices. I must say, I'm not a big juice lover (especially vegetable vise), if I have to eat healthy, I choose to chew them, not to drink, but I'm 100% in when it comes to paint them on my nails :)

The PRESSED collection contains 6 creme shades, but one of them has a slight, delicate shimmer too.

BANANA ALMOND BLONDE
It's a light pastel yellow, with a really wearable cold undertone. So pretty, it's my favorite from the collection. Light shades like these are always tricky, and though it needed 3 coats, I must say the formula is pretty decent. It doesn't get streaky, levels itself out, it was easy to apply! 

SWEET AS AGAVE

It's a nude with red undertones. The swatch above is more color accurate than the swatch below. It's a pretty shade, but it's as light as my skintone, so it's not the best choice for me.

It has a sheer formula, I needed 3 coats to build it up, but it applied smooth, not streaky at all.

AVOCADO BRAVADO

I would call this a pastel sage color. This one has that delicate, almost unvisible shimmer, hopefully you can see it on the macro below.

I thought this one will need 3 coats as well, but I could get away with 2 normal-thickish coats. The formula was really nice, levels itself out, nice job NCLA!

24 CARROTS

It's a bright carrot color, as the name would suggest :)

Strange, because it kinda has a jellier formula, but it covered in 2 coats.

FAIRYKALE ENDING

It's a dark army green, a little bit dustier in real life.

It has the best pigmentation out of the 6, it covers in 1-2 coats.

LOW CAL, SO CAL

It's a bright red, not too warm, nor cold, but I wouldn't say it's neutral either :D I'm so helpful...

This one had a jellier formula as well, but it covered in 2 coats.

I created a really simple nail art, using all 6 shades from the collection. I used Sweet As Almond as my base, then I painted on the remaining 5 colors with a thin brush, in random wavy lines.

The formulas in this collection were pretty nice! My favorite shades are Banana Almond Blonde, Avocado Bravado and Fairykale Ending.
