Week 6

Thought I repost this with the review of this nail polish I figured I would write but never got round to it. I mean, if I'm going to wear 52 different nail polishes this year I might as well talk about them right?



Smurf blood blue. Thats not actually what it was called -Avon would never call it something like that. Could you imagine the Avon lady trying to sell that?
It should of been though, it was the perfect mushed up smurf colour. I loved it! I'm not entirely sold that blue hues suit my skin colouring, or the hordes of bright pink clothes I seem to have (?? Where did these come from?) bt I still enjoyed it for the week.

It went on ok. I seemed to screw up the first try though. For some reason this always happens to me and I end up taking it off and redoing it. seeming t strip my nails with nail polish remover makes the next load go on better? I don't know.
It was a bit thin and because its fairly fast drying you have to have your wits about you while doing it (i.e not doing it on your cofee table at 10pm when you are meant to be in bed because you have been up since 4 and have had 5904375943 coffees). I got good comments about it though sot he second coat I put on must of hid the crappy application/streakiness.

I was mildly surprised at its staying on power too. I'm as librarian so I'm constantly bumping my nails against books and desks as I check in, shelve and whatnot, so nail polishes (especially considering I never use any sort of top coat, i don't have time for that sort of carry on) has to be pretty good to last more than a day without chipping, and this lasted about 3 days before I saw a real noticeable chunk missing - so it gets ticks for that (honestly, my life is brutal on my nails).

Avon Nailwear Pro in Misty Blue - 3/5 stars.
