Avon Nailwear Pro+ Nail enamel Perfectly flesh swatches!

Looking for an office friendly chic nude then check out Avon Nailwear Pro+ Nail enamel in Perfectly flesh.
Its a lovely pinky nude shade with creamy glossy finish.The shade goes opaque in 2 coats and dries to touch in around 3-4 mins.


The company claims up to 12 days of wear time, I used two coats and no base or top coat.
I've worn it for 4 days now with minor fading on the nail tips, though it hasn't begun to peel or chip. This is when I've been putting my hands through the whole grind of cooking, cleaning and furiously punching my keyboard for hours at end. I don't personally  think this would survive 12 days, yet its wear time is quite impressive.

I'm quite pleasantly surprised with the quality of Avon nail lacquers, so far I had avoided thinking they would not quite live up to my exacting standards, but the consistency is not too runny and not too thick, the brush gives adequate control and a vast shade selection with 28 colors- Not bad at all! I'm eying Fuchsia and Mulberry from the cream finish

8ml bottles costs 99 bucks, but Avon being Avon there are always some great discounts to be had and currently you can pick these up at 2 for 179/-

Faces Canada Ballerina Nail polish review,swatch and Sale Alert

Faces Cosmetics is currently having an upto 50% Off Sale in its standalone stores.Everything from Makeup and accessories has good discounts going on.I just picked up my very first Faces Nail polish and am pretty happy with the quality.
The shade I bought is Ballerina and is a beautiful peachy pink with a slight yellow pull. The shade is a creamy matte,looks very fresh and flirty.

The nail enamel texture is slightly on the thicker side and two coats give a nice finish. The drying time is thankfully not too long either.7 ml mini bottles cost Rs 99/- and I got around 15% off (don't remember exact off on this, I hauled some more stuff along)
I'd definitely recommend checking out Faces Nail enamel, they have lovely shade selection at pocket friendly prices. I'm in love with this shade and will definitely be buying a backup of Ballerina.

Sparkling Champagne Nails of the day

For the Pretty Princesses out there who want to enjoy some glamour dust on their nails here's  my very simple & chic Sparkly Champagne Nails of the Day.

Products used
  • New U Mini champagne polish
  • New U Mini clear polish
  • Glamour Doll Eyeshadow's eye lights- holographic glitter in shade-Hollywood
  • Fan brush

I've used two coats of the champagne polish as the base, once the base coats have dried up, I've applied clear polish on only half of my nail (starting from the middle of the nail to the tip), using a fan brush I've dusted some holographic glitter on each nail, keeping glitter concentrated at the nail tip. Once dry just finish off with some clear top coat & Ta-da You are ready flaunt your paws missy!

Blue and Gold Nails of the day and 5 Things I learned today about Nail art

Hey Girlies! Hope you are having a rocking weekend!! Delhi heat is scorching right now and I'm down with a mild heat stroke.So grounded and home bound I was up to some pretty random nail art today. After 5 different botched Nail art attempts, I got seriously bored and decided to do this Blue & Gold Nail of the day using sponging technique.

I didn't have a gold polish so I decided to play with some gold pigment and mixed it with clear polish and voila-There you have it bright gold polish!!


5 Things I learned today about Nail art

1.They don't call it Art for nothing, Nail Art is  seriously tricky business.

2.Don't trust your favorite Nail Art Guru -when they tell you "this mani is easy peasy & I did it in a jiffy" it takes some serious time to get a mani right.Leave it to the pros ;)

3.Dark blue polish will stain your nails and your skin, any random dark polish will also stain. No they don't write that on the nail polish bottle!! They should don't you think?

4.Transparent polish+Loose eyeshadow pigment=Funky polish,though say goodbye to your clear polish's brush,it will never be transparent again.

5.Nail art is a royal pain the behind, but I sure am hooked & will be trying out some more :D

XOXO Girls, stay in the shade & drink plenty of H2O

Neon Fuchsia Nails of the day & my attempt at Nail art :)

Hey Guys, today I'm wearing this super bright neon fuchsia shade from Flormar on my nails (number N001) and I took baby steps with nail art, I tried out a little accent with water decals.
The water decals were from www.KKcenterHK.com and are super easy to apply.
Honestly I always thought nail art meant high tech stuff, intricate deigns,stamping and a whole bunch of rocket science and I was so thrilled to see how easy these decals were to apply.
Just cut out a small decal sticker, soak it in water and press on the nail & voila there you have it a lovely design.Now I'm going to try out rest of the decals and keep you guys posted on how those turned out :)

MAYBELLINE EXPRESS FINISH RED SEDUCTION NAILS OF THE DAY

Hello my lovelies, here's my first nails of the day on my blog! The shade I've chosen is Maybelline Express Finish Red Seduction (shade number 530).

The winter chill is somehow putting me in a Christmas-sy mood and I've decided to go with bold red nails this time.

(Sorry about nail paint straying over to the cuticles & sides.Somehow with dark red nails no amount of cleaning the sides with remover seems to help!)

This is pretty close to how the nail enamel looks in natural light, a much more deeper shade of red.
