NOTD: Pixi Beauty Caliente Coral

For the month of August, Pixi Beauty has a new nail colour to feature and it's called Caliente Coral. It is described as a vibrant coral with pink glimmer. This shade is gorgeous and I used two coats. As you can see from the swatch, the polish is so shiny on its own. I didn't use any top coat.
