Review: Avon Magic Effects Diamond Shatter

Hey Beauties!

I can't believe I didn't show this beauty to you before. I got it among other Magic Effects nail polishes, that Avon sent me. It's the perfect shiny effect top coat for summer. I don't know why, but to me it looks like mermaids shed all over my nails. :)


It comes in their classic nail polish bottle with black top. The brush is regular and it does it's job well. It's transparent and it looks like it has multi-colored foil parts in it. The parts are different sizes and I understand the name Diamond Shatter, because it looks like something has been shattered. It actually reminds me of shells and mermaid tail.

With one swipe of the brush you get a really good amount of those shatter parts. I was surprised, because it often happens that you can't get good amount of the effects on your nails. But this one is perfect. You really only need one dip and it covers entire nail.

The regular price is 5.90€, but it's often on sale. You'll get 10 ml of nail polish. 


It works best over dark nail polishes. The color of the foil parts actually looks different based on what base color you use. As you can see on white it looks yellow, pink and violet. The best effect is still over black nail polish. It looks green, yellow and blue. Btw, this will look amazing on the pool. I tried it, trust me.



Here you can see how beautiful it looks over basic black nail polish. It makes it look so much better and interesting. 






Gorgeous effect, covers well and looks so pretty in the summer. I'm certain I'll use this one when I go on the holidays, because it just looks so pretty on the sun and in the water. 




Ne morem verjeti, da vam nisem tega lepotca pokazala že prej. Dobila sem ga med Magic Effects laki, ki mi jih je poslal Avon. Je popoln sijoč nadlak za poletje. Ne vem zakaj, ampak spominja me na morske deklice :).

Standardna steklenička s črnim pokrovom, ki je značilna za vse Avon lake. Čopič je tudi standarden in dobro opravlja svoje delo. Lak je prozoren z večbarvnimi delci folije. Delci so različnih velikosti in popolnoma razumem ime Diamond Shatter, saj res izgleda kot nekaj razbitega. Mene spominja na školjke in rep morskih deklic. 

Z enim nanosom čopiča dobite veliko delcev. Bila sem presenečena, ker včasih se zgodi, da teh efektov kar ne morem spraviti iz stekleničke na nohte. Ta je popoln. Z enim nanosom dobim res veliko delcev, ki popolnoma prekrijejo noht.

Redna cena je 5.90€, ampak je vedno kakšen popust. Dobite 10 ml laka.

Najbolje izpade preko temnih lakov. Barva delcev folije izgleda različno preko različnih barvnih podlag. Kot lahko vidite izgleda rumeno, roza in vojolično preko belega laka. Najboljši efekt dobite preko črnega laka. Takrat delci izgledajo rumeni, zeleni in modri. Mimogrede, to bo izgledala fantastično v bazenu. Verjemite, sem preizkusila.

Tukaj lahko vidite kako čudovito izgleda preko navadnega črnega laka. Črni lak izgleda veliko bolj zanimiv. 

Čudovit efekt, dobra prekrivnost in izgleda tako čudovito v poletnih dneh. Prepričana sem da ga bom uporabila na počitnicah, ker izgleda tako lepo na soncu in v vodi. 

Avon nail polish haul

Hey Beauties!

This week Avon surprised me and sent me 19 of their nail polishes. I was beyond happy. Avon currently has some really interesting finishes and effects. In this week I'll post a review of each category. So expect some more nails on my blog.

Spodaj tudi prevod v slovenščini.


Avon Magic Effects Matte

I love matte nails. Obsessed really, is the right word. Ever since I got Kiko matte nail polish I've been putting it on top of every manicure. Now you can just buy the matte nail polishes in desired shades, if you're just looking for a certain color.

From left to right

Violetta: it doesn't show the real shade on the photo, it's actually electric violet.
White
Inky Blue: in the bottle it seems like a mix of dark blue and warm eggplant color
Black


Avon Magic Effects Matte Top Coat

If you're like me and wish to transform every nail polish into matte gorgeousness, then you can buy there matte top coat.


Avon Magic Effects Diamond Shatter

They also have effect top coat called Diamond Shatter. This is extremely pretty. It looks like shattered glass or diamonds all over your nails. It gives of green and blue sheen.


Avon Magic Effects Fringe

The next range in Magic Effects nail polishes is called Fringe. The name probably comes from the clothing. These polishes have short thin lines of different colors.

From left to right:

Frayed Edges: silver and white fringe
Jacquered Metal: blue and gold fringe
Tassled Trim: it looks blue on the photo, but it's actually true cool violet, violet and silver fringe
Fringe Effect: black and gold fringe


Avon Magic Effects Mineral Crush

One of my favorite looking ranges is also from their Magic Effects called Mineral Crush. Those are basically glittery sand finish polishes. I love the look of sand finish and find that it can last a really long time on my nails.

Diamond: photo doesn't to it justice, it's chocolate based silver with silver glitter
Topez: turquoise with silver glitter
Pearl: pink based nude with silver glitter
Rose Quartz: red toned pink with silver glitter
Agate: again on the photo it looks blue, actually it's cool violet with silver glitter
Ruby: Red with gold and pink glitter

Glitter in this is basically very small. It is alternating from tiny to a bit bigger dots in all of them except Ruby. Ruby only seems to have very tiny glitter particles. 


Avon Gel Finish

They also have the very popular Gel Finish range, which is suppose to give you gel-like nails.

From left to right

Creme Brulee: true light warm nude
Dazzle Pink: salmon pink with white silver shimmer
Red Velvet: ruby red that looks like it has metallic finish


Right now our Slovenian Avon has all these nail polishes on an offer 1 for 4.50€, 2 for 6.90€. If any of these made you squeal, you can now buy them at a lower price, if you get at least two. You can check out their catalog here.

I'm sure I can't possibly use all of these nail polishes, so I'll probably do a giveaway and give some of them away to you. I will probably swatch each nail polish on one nail, but it will be pretty much like new. Let me know which ones do you like best.




Ta teden me je Avon presenetil in mi poslal 19 njihovih lakov. Bila sem zelo vesela. Avon ima trenutno zelo zanimive efekte in finiše. V tem tednu bom objavila ocene posameznih kategorij. Pričakujte več nohtov na mojem blogu.

Avon Magic Effects Matte

Obožujem mat nohte. No v bistvu sem z njimi obsedena. Odkar sem si kupila Kiko mat nadlak, ga nanašam preko vsake manikure. Zdaj lahko kupite mat lake v določenih odtenkih, če si želite samo določen odtenek z mat učinkom.

Od leve proti desni

Violetta: na sliki ne prikaže pravega odtenka, je v bistvu električno vijolična.
White
Inky Blue: v steklenički izgleda kot mešanica temno modre in vijolične kot jajčevec
Black

Avon Magic Effects Matte Top Coat

Če ste kot jaz in želite vsako manikuro spremeniti v mat božanstvo, potem lahko kupite mat nadlak.

Avon Magic Effects Diamond Shatter

Avon ima tudi nadlak, ki se imenuje Diamond Shatter. Ta je zelo lep. Na nohtih izgleda kot strto steklo ali diamanti. Manikuri daje zelen in moder sijaj.

Avon Magic Effects Fringe

Naslednja linija v Magic Effects lakih, se imenuje Fringe. Ime verjetno izhaja iz oblačil. Ti laki imajo majhne in kratke črtice v različnih barvah.

Od leve proti desni

Frayed Edges: siv in bel fringe
Jacquered Metal: moder in zlat fringe
Tassled Trim: na fotografiji izgleda moder, vendar je v resnici pravi hladen vijoličen, vijoličen in srebren fringe
Fringe Effect: črn in zlat fringe

Avon Magic Effects Mineral Crush

Ena mojih najljubših linij iz njihovih Magic Effects lakov se imenuje Mineral Crush. Gre za lake z bleščicami, ki imajo peščen finiš. Obožujem izgleda lakov s peščenim finišem in ugotavljam, da na meni precej dolgo zdržijo.

Od leve proti desni

Diamond: na fotografiji spet izgleda drugače, gre za čokoladno siv odtenek s srebrnimi bleščicami
Topez: turkizen s srebrnimi bleščicami
Pearl: nude odtenek na bazi roza odtenka z srebrnimi bleščicami
Rose Quartz: roza odtenek na bazi rdeče s srebrnimi bleščicami
Agate: spet na fotografiji izgleda moder, je pa hladno vijoličen s srebrnimi bleščicami
Ruby: rdeč z zlatimi in roza bleščicami

Bleščice so v bistvu zelo majhne. Gredo od zelo majhnih do večjih pikic v vseh lakih, razen v Ruby. Ruby ima samo zelo majhne bleščice.

Avon Gel Finish

Imajo tudi zelo popularne Gel Finish lake, ki bi naj dajali izgled gel nohtov.

Od leve proti desni

Creme Brulee: prava svetlo topla nude
Dazzle Pink: lososova roza z belimi in srebrnimi bleščicami
Red Velvet: rubi rdeča, ki izgleda kot da ima kovinski finiš

Trenutno ima Avon ponudbo na vse te lake in sicer dobite enega za 4.50€, ali dva za 6.90€. Torej če ste pri katerem od teh zacvilile, jih zdaj lahko kupite ceneje, če se odločite za nakup vsaj dveh. 

Katalog lahko pregledate tukaj. Za Avon predstavnike pri katerih bi radi naročili povprašajte Avon ali poiščite najbližje predstavnike kar preko Facebooka.

Prepričana sem, da ne bom porabila vseh teh lakov zato bom nekatere podarila vam v nagradni igri. Verjetno bom vse lake preizkusila na enem nohtu, razen tega bodo popolnoma novi. Napišite mi v komentarjih kateri so vam najbolj všeč.
