I'm a simple Scottish girl with an unusual name and a strange obsession for nail polish! My aim is to capture what the eye sees, with a camera! Too much nail polish and never enough time. I have also started wildlife photography, which I enjoy very much. Welcome to my little world :-)

Avon Must Have Orange

I had ordered this from the last brochure and had expected it to be very orange. But instead is was a more browny orange! It was only 99p.




This is easy to use, easy to apply and quick drying (less than a minute for a coat). As I said above it isn't really the colour I expected, it is just a little too brown for my liking :-| The brush is really good and the lid is comfortable to hold. It lasted really well. Just isn't me :-| I do find with the Avon polishes, sometimes it's hit and miss with the colours compared to the brochure photos of them!

  4. It really looks orange-brown. I guess it wouldn't be one of my favourite shades, but it isn't bad. It has a nice finish.

  6. Basically I like orange, but this one is a bit to rusty for me.

    Kind regards,

  9. Ya I agree sometimes it's hard to tell from the Avon brochure what the color will look like. You can try checking tracefacephiles blog before ordering... she is an Avon lady and nail blogger so she usually has swatches of Avon polish! Good thing Avon polish is cheap at least... and the formula is good... maybe you can find a good home for this polish I'm sure someone else will like the color!

    1. It really is sometimes it's just pot luck! Other times you can get a nice surprise as well :-) I'll check her blog out, though I'm not sure if the UK selection is different from your selection over there?

      That's true it doesn't feel like money wasted! Perhaps I can hehe :-)
