L'Oreal Confettis Top Coat

This is the top coat I popped on top of Avon's Mint Ice.

This is okay to use, need to dab it on rather than painting the nails and it was slow drying. I thought it looked awesome on top of the green hehe. It's black and white with tiny specks.You can just about make them out, under the watermark of the last picture, on the middle finger...zoom! Lasted really well.

Avon Sweet Sundae

Sadly not Sunday yet! Boo.

This is okay to use, streaky application (but that's expected) and mega quick drying. The first coat was terrible, the 2nd not too bad and the 3rd did the trick! I'd have to say I found this colour rather nice, maybe it was the mood I was in? Sadly chipped a bit.

Avon Color Trend Mint Ice

This is not very easy to use, not very easy to apply and mega quick drying! This 1st coat is very streaky and for the next two I had plenty on the brush for better coverage. It's a springy minty green, I guess the name gives the colour away! Lasted well.

Avon Sugared Peach

Got the three new Avon Color Trend polishes the other week there! First up is the peachy one.

This is okay to use, iffy application and mega quick drying! Like all these pastel type colours, it was very streaky on the first coat, but on the second was fine. For the first coat, I always make that one thin but usually have plenty of polish on the brush for the following coats. Lasted really well.

Bluecross Snowman Purple Glitter

So this is the glitter that I put on top of the last post.

This is easy to use, easy to apply and okay drying. I had a few bald patches, so I just dabbed the glitter on and that worked a treat. It's full of purple and blue glitter! Lasted well. It's very lovely and shiny!

******* I put a glitter polish on top of this, which will be featured soon. Upon removal (with the tin foil) I noticed this has stained my nails! Not sure if it was to do with the addition of glitter polish or it was this nail polish? Had to buff the stains off with the 4 way buffer!

Angelica Chameleon

This is easy to use, easy to apply and fairly slow drying. Oh it's iridescent.... greens, purples and bronzes can be spotted! It's also slightly smelly too. Lasted really well and it looks amazingly awesome.

Angelica Twilight

Yah Primark in Scotland finally have these nail polishes!

This is okay to use and okay to apply. The brush isn't the best I've used and the formula was slightly gloopy. It's mega mega slow drying as well and it's quite smelly, like the older polishes due to not being 'nasty chemical free'! But all that said, it's worth it because it's cool and iridescent :-) It changes from a gorgeous deep blue to a gorgeous deep purple, you can just about make it out in the pics. Lasted okay.

Avon Mandarin Magic

This is the last of the new Avon fruity polishes!

This is easy to use and quick drying. I had a slight issue with the lid. The black part of it came off, but it was fairly easy to paint the nails and application was good. It's an orange colour with gold flecks, I think the pictures do the talking lol! I noticed slight tip wear after about 6 hours, but lasted well otherwise.

Avon Apple Of His Eye

This is easy to use, easy to apply and fairly quick drying. I'd say it's a lovely red with gold flecks. Lasted okay but was prone to slight scuffing. Hadn't had this problem with the previous colours.

Avon Honeydew Dazzle

This is easy to use, awkward to apply and okay drying. The first coat is very streaky so make sure you have plenty on the brush for the next few coats. I always find it best to have a thin layer for the first coat. It's a minty green colour with subtle green flecks. Lasted well.

Ugg it's been a long and hard nightshift and I'm just about to head to bed, thought I'd better post this before I starts the zzzzzzs.

This is easy to use, easy to apply and okay drying. It's a sort of magenta colour with purple flecks and a shimmer to it. Lasted really well. It's absolutely gorgeous. Love it.

Avon Divine Lime

This is easy to use, easy to apply and fairly quick drying, It's a lime green polish and is jelly like with green/gold flecks that look sorta blue in natural light. It's from the new range of Avon polishes. At first I didn't really like it, thought it look yuck on my nails, but it grew on me. Lasted really, really well.
