It applies very evenly and smoothly onto the nails. It dries pretty fast and You need just two coats to get an opaque finish.

The shade All That Glitters is a lovely yellow gold shade with silver hexes and micro shimmer. These nail polishes give a slightly sand like texture to the nails. It's a beautiful shade and will never look OTT. It adds a glamour quotient to your look. A must have shade from this range. This is perfect for the upcoming Shaadi Season. I can definitely see myself using this shade a lot in the upcoming months.

This stays on my nails for a good 5 days without any sort of chipping. Only con of this nail polish is that removing it would be a task. This applies to all glitter polishes.

Avon Inky Blue Matte Nail Polish : Review & NOTD

Hi Girls,

Hope you have been good... I've missed blogging a lot. So I'm back today with a review of a  matte nail polish from Avon in the shade Inky Blue. The post is going to be short. I don't want to bore you with unnecessary details. Read on! 

Price & Quantity: Rs.135 for 8 ml

But you can easily get it on discount as Avon keeps having amazing offers...

My views:

So today in reviewing this unique shade which is a rich ink blue with slight shimmer to it. You can clearly notice in it bottle but it doesn't show up on the nails. I don't really mind that. If you see the pics clearly it looks more purple-ish in the bottle but on the nails it looks like a deep ink blue shade. 

The polish applies slightly streaky if not applied properly. I had a tough time the first time around! The best part about this nail paint is the fact that it dries and settles into a matte finish in a couple of seconds... I'm pretty impressed with that.

One swipe is all you need to get an opaque coat of the shade on your nails. It stayed on my nails for 3 days the first time without chipping and 4 days the second time. That's not so bad given the price tag.

Pros:

1. Unique Ink Blue Shade
2. Dries into a matte finish in a couple of seconds
3. Opaque color  in just one swipe 
4. Stays on for 3 - 4 days without any chipping

Cons:

1. Its a little streaky. I had a lot of issues when i was applying it for the first time.

Overall Verdict: Its a pretty unique shade which settles into a matte finish in a couple of seconds. Lasts for 3- 4 days without any chipping with an even amazing price tag. I think you should definitely try out this range.

I know lately i have been posting a lot of nail paint reviews... so i have finally decided that i will post nail paint reviews on Fridays... will come up with some name for that as well! Hope you liked this review... Do leave your comments below!

Hi Girls,

I’m back with another nail paint review. This time it’s a shade from the Maybelline Color Show Range. Everyone has loved this range and I love it too… Today I will review a beautiful shade Buried Treasure. I have 3 more shades from this range will review them soon. Also I’m dying to try the new Glitter Mania nail paints will get my hands on them soon. Hope you enjoy this post1

Maybelline Claims: Stay right on trend from your tips to toes with new Maybelline Color Show. Our gel based formula with color popping pigments, comes in 40 bold, super stylish shades that look great on nails. So go on, mix, match and make the most of color.

 

Price & Quantity:
Rs.75 for 6ml

My Take on the product:
I like how Maybelline has done the packaging. Its simple and compact. This is a very unique shade. It’s a dirty grey color with golden shimmers in it. This is a shade which you won’t find easily in other brands. It’s a lovely shade to wear for parties or occasions.

Its pigmentation is good. One swipe in more than enough! The shimmers make this dull color look very beautiful. It dries pretty fast and doesn’t chip for around 5 days! I love Maybelline for coming up with such high quality products at reasonable rates.

Do I Recommend? Yes, this is a must have shade from the range. It’s pretty unique.
Will I repurchase it? Not, this shade. I already have 3 more shades from this range. Will definitely be buying more shades and checking out the new Glitter Mania collection as well.

XOXO
