Avon's Petunia

This review is on Avon's Petunia.  This is what I would call a nude pink.  It's a cream color, so it has no sparkles or shimmers.  It is a very nice color for the spring.  I think it would look great with some stamping over it.  It like the others is very thin. It was a little bit runny, but it wasn't streaky.  It still only took 2 coats to get a nice even all over color.  Here are some pictures for you:


As always I hope you enjoyed the post and come back again soon.  Have a wonderful day and don't forget to smile, you never know whose looking :)

CQ2 in 154

This review is on CQ2 in 154.  It's a Frosted Maroon color in my opinion.  It has a nice formula.  It goes on smoothly and gives a nice even color within two coats.  It has good dry time.  This is a great color for the fall.  It would look good with some black stamping on it.  Here are some pictures of it for you:

Avon Speed Dry in Gilty Pink

This review is on Avon Spreed Dry in Gilty Pink.  This is a rosy pink color with gold micro shimmers in it.  Very pretty color for the spring and summer, but could also be good in the fall.  It is like the others a little thin, but it was not streaky.  It gave an all over even look with only 2 coats.  And it really does dry super fast.  Here are some pictures of it:

Avon Nailwear in Pulse

This review is on Avon Nailwear in Pulse.  Pulse is a sort of maroon color with lots of red micro shimmers in it.  It is much prettier in person! Like all Avon polishes it is pretty thin, and can run, but it still gives an all over even color with 2 coats.  This will be a very fun color to wear when it is really sunny out.  Here are some pictures:

Avon Nail Color in Cherry Flip

This is a review on Avon's Cherry Flip. Cherry Flip in my opinion is a duo chrome.  When you look at it in certain light it is a different color.  I tried to capture that the best I could in the pictures.  It is a nice cherry color with a lot of micro shimmer in gold or copper, and when the light hits just right it's a copper color.  It has a somewhat thin formula and is slightly runny, but the wonderful color makes up for that.  It took 2 coats to get an even all over color.  This is a very fun color, I would say for the fall.  Here are some pictures for you:

Avon Speed Dry Tuscan Russet

This review is on Avon Speed Dry in Tuscan Russet.  This is a brownish orange rust color. It reminds me of natural red clay.  It just a plain cream color, no sparkles or shimmers.  This has a thin formula like most Avon colors, but this one goes on streaky and runny.  This was a very large downside.  It dries really fast though.  It should make a nice fall color.  Here are some pictures:

As always thank you for checking out my posts, I hope you enjoyed it.  Have a wonderful day and don't forget to smile, you never know whose looking :)

Avon Speed Dry Mambo Melon

This is a review on Avon Speed Dry in Mambo Melon.  This is a pinkish coral color, like a melon.  It's really bright and has some gorgeous shimmer to it.  So fun for summer! This of course has the thin formula, but still gave great all over coverage with 2 coats.  Dry time is really fast and it is not a streaky color.  I really like this color for summertime.  Here are some pictures:

Avon Speed Dry Sateen

This review is on Avon Speed Dry in Sateen.  Sateen is a pale mauve pink with tons of micro shimmers in gold and mauve in it.  It is a little thin, but even with it being thin I could have easily gotten away with only one coat.  I did two just to make sure I had all the coverage I wanted. Excellent dry time, and a very lovely color.  Very nice all year round color.  Here are some pictures:

Avon Speed Dry Cherry

This review is on Avon Speed Dry in Cherry.  It's exactly that a cherry red with shimmer in it.  It like most Avon polishes is thin, but I could have easily gotten away with only one coat of this color.  I just wanted to be sure that I got the even color.  It has excellent dry time of course.  This is a very pretty color.  Here are some pictures for you:

Avon Speed Dry Delicate Mauve

This review is on Avon Speed Dry in Delicate Mauve.  Delicate Mauve is a light pink mauve with some subtle shimmer to it.  It's a very pretty all year around color.  It has the thin Avon formula, but it still gave full even color coverage after 2 coats.  It also has the super fast dry time.  Really enjoy this color, and it would be a nice work color for the professionals out there, and you could spice it up a little bit with some stamping.  There's all kinds of possibilities!  Here are some pictures:

L.A. Colors in BCC 559

Here I have L.A. Colors number BCC 559 (I didn't look for the name on the packaging before I threw it away).  This is a neon purple or fuchsia color.  The formula for this color was pretty good.  I got an even all over color with 2 coats.  The first coat was a little bit streaky, but not to bad.  It's a very fun neon color for summer. It's from the color craze line.  Here it is for you to see:

Spoiled Papa-Paparazzi

This review is on Spoiled in Papa-Paparazzi.  This is a super sparkly polish.  It's a purple what I would call jelly base with hex holographic glitters in it.  It goes on very nicely. Smooth and even coats.  The glitter lays down nicely and did not need placed.  It has just the right formula, so it was not runny or to thick.  I like glitter so this was a great polish in my opinion. Very sparkly and a smooth finish. Here it is for you to see:

Wet n Wild Sunny Side Up

This is a review on Wet n Wild Wild Shine in Sunny Side Up.  This is a semi runny formula. It goes on a little streaky with the first coat.  Depending on how thick you put the coats on it evens out.  I used sort of thick coats, and achieved an all over even color in 2 coats.  This is a creamy light orange color.  Very fun for spring and summer.  The dry time on this was very quick, which is always a plus in my books. Here it is for you to see:
