Avon Mark. Gel Shine Nail Enamel in Rain Washed
nedelja, januar 27, 2019
I'm a big fan of light pastel blue nail polishes, especially those that are a little bit muted rather than a pure version of the shade and they are surprisingly hard to find. This shade is exactly what I wanted and it's been on my wishlist for ages, so I was very happy when Petra from Adjusting Beauty sent it to me.
Rain washed is a pale blue that leans to grey. It's more grey-ish and less bright than my beloved L'Oreal 858 Ocean Porcelain, which has been discontinued.
Formula is a gel one, but it's pretty much a classic pastel. Formula is averagely thick formula and it needs two, sometimes, three coats for full opacity. Never in history have I been able to apply any nail polish neatly, so I can't create miracles with this formula either, but it's ok. As long as it's nothing like Essie's Fiji, I'm happy. Brush is not particularly wide, which doesn't bother me, as I actually prefer smaller brushes due to my narrow nails. For a gel nail polish I don't notice any extra shine, but I use a top coat anyway. I've worn it so many times since I got it and one thing is becoming apparent to me - it chips fast, which is weird considering how nail polishes last on me. It still lasts a week or so, but usually nail polishes last forever on my hard nails and I take them off because I get bored.
Regular price is 6.50€ in Avon, but it's often on offer.
Have a great day!

OdgovoriIzbrišiIt's one of the prettiest shades ever :)
IzbrišiEn mojih najljubših odtenkov. Res unikaten. Jaz ga tudi skoz nosim. Me veseli, da ti je všeč :). Nisem pa opazila, da bi se mi prej krušil kot večina lakov. Meni zdrži povprečno dobro. Ni slab, ni presežek.
OdgovoriIzbrišiPrekrasen je :) Ne vem zakaj se mi ta odkruši hitreje. Sicer je itak trapasto, da se pritožujem, ker še vedno traja teden na nohtih, ampak jaz se zelo lena kar se tiče nohtov in si delam manikuro enkrat na dva tedna.
IzbrišiI haven't tried True Colour, but usually nail polishes last longer on me. Though I don't mind it that much, it's still pretty long lasting :)
