Avon Nailwear Pro+ in Noir Emerald


I just wanted to share with you guys this amazing nail colour from Avon's nailwear pro+ range. My mum has been doing some Avon work recently so every month I have been looking at the brochures and since the first one I had my eyes on some of the amazing nail polish colours! I also picked up a plum colour and a shimmery petrol blue which is lovely. To be honest application isn't amazing; you definitely need two colours for it to be opaque, however drying time is less than 1 minute which is perfect because I am so impatient! Also, this colour is just perfect for the seasonal time that is now Christmas!

Have you tried any of the Avon nail polishes? What are your preferred colours?


*disclaimer - this was bought for me with my mum's money.

Nails Inc in Piccadilly Circus

 
After going through a bit of a 'naked nails' phase I decided I wanted raspberry red nails! I didn't think I had any polish's this colour but I decided to root around in my stash and I found this little bottle of Nails Inc goodness, never used before & I'm in love. Its the perfect red for autumn; maybe a little bit pink, but lovely nonetheless. Now, I'm not sure if I actually purchased this from Nails Inc or I got it as a freebie in a magazine but its the first Nails Inc polish I've ever used... and I must say I am very impressed. It was pretty much opaque with one coat but I applied a second coat to be on the safe side! The picture is without a top coat because I was too impatient to wait for my nails to dry before I snapped a pic! I think this could be a staple colour for Autumn... ps. excuse my stupidly wrinkly hands!

Nails - Sinful Colours in Hazard & All About You




 
Now, im not usually one of those #bbloggers that likes to post what's on my nails posts because I am crap at painting them & I don't really like showing them off - I don't mind a pic on instagram when I think they've gone ok - however, today im showing you because I looove the colours and design. I picked up these Sinful Colours on Sunday at the Herts & Beds meet up in St Albans, you can see my post all about it here and I think they look AMAZING together. They were only £2 each and Boots have a Buy One Get One Half Price deal on at the moment so I got these two & another two for £6 - BARGAIN. The coral colour is called Hazard & the glittery gold is called All About You. The pictures don't really do the gold glitter any justice because its so sparkly and it actually has little orange flecks in it so the coral really compliments it well; and I didn't actually realise this until I slapped it on my nails. I do have to say though that just applying one coat is quite streaky so I would definitely recommend two coats. With the gold glitter I wasn't expecting much from the first coat... 3 coats later it started to look more opaque but the formula of the glitter was more sticky & gel-like so it was a bit tricky to apply at first, I was just kind of dabbing it onto my nails rather than brushing. For £2 a nail polish you cant really complain about the formula though...
 
The other two colours I bought were a glittery electric blue (Hottie) just like the gold and a gorgeous mint green (Be Happy) which looks like such an amazing colour in the bottle, im excited to paint it on my nails. If my nails don't look too awful then maybe I will show you when I eventually try it. I just love these colours together so I cant bear to change them yet.
 
Have you tried any of the Sinful Colours? What are your thoughts? Do you have any favourites?
