Count on Avon to surprise you with seasonal novelties. I am very fond of Avon's continuously changing range of products. They always seem to add seasonal shades and are fairly quick on picking up new beauty trends and making their own versions. I have already reviewed the whole range of
Avon Gel Shine Nail Enamels previously. They've added
5 new seasonal fall shades that are absolutely gorgeous and some are really unique.
As with their previous nail polishes, these also come in a square shaped glass bottle with black plastic top. In each is 10 ml of product and the regular price is 5.90€. These are often on sale and right now you can get them for 2.90€ (Slovenia).
They have regular straight cut brush. The formula is creamy and easy to apply but not fully opaque. You'll need two coats to completely cover the nail.
Drying time is fairly quick and they have a good lasting power. I'd say 3 to 4 days on my weak and prone to splitting nails. The finish is very shiny and it definitely resembles gel like polishes. If you apply their top coat over it, you get even shinier finish.
Stonewashed Clay
Unique mix of grey and light olive shade. I'd say it's grey with olive tone. I find it unique and very classic shade in a way. It's a fun twist on boring grey.
Rouged Cider
Muddy salmon shade. It's as if salmon shade would have a bit of muddiness or brown added to it. Really unique shade in my range of nail polishes and it almost looks like a blush that I would love to own.
Pined-Perfection
Pine tree green. This shade is true to its name. It really does look like a proper pine tree, a medium muted green. I adore this shade. It's hard to find unique and muted green shades and this one looks really pretty.
Jaded Sky
Petroleum shade. My camera didn't want to catch the real shade of this nail polish. It looks like a mix of darker green and blue. On my photos it looks just blue, but in real life it also has a bit of green in it and looks like a proper petroleum shade.
Marmalady
Brownish apricot. To me it looks exactly like apricot jam. It's my favorite shade of all of these and in my opinion the most unique. When I wore it, I got a lot of compliments from those persons that don't usually even like these kind of shades. It's a bit retro and super unique.
In my opinion, these are one of the most unique shades of nail polishes that I've seen in a while. You often see muted and different toned classic shades in higher ranged brands and not so much in drugstore ranges.
Fall shades are one of my favorite shades in general, because I love green and peach. Marmalady is a total winner of uniqueness and is definitely the one that I advise you to get it. All the other shades are just as pretty. Jaded Sky is my least favorite, but that's probably because I'm not to keen on blue in general.
I highly recommend you to check these out and get some, if you have a chance. It's a lovely creme formula, shiny finish and they are fairly long lasting. Also take a look at other shades in the
Gel Shine range. There are some interesting fall shades as well - my favorite being
Mauvelous and
Wine And Dine Me.

Na Avon se vedno lahko zanesem, da bo presenetil z novostmi. Njihova politika dodajanja novih izdelkov v redne linije, mi je izredno všeč. Vedno dodajajo sezonam primerne odtenke in se hitro prilagajajo lepotnim novostim ter ustvarijo svoje verzije. Pred tem sem že ocenila vse odtenke Avon Gel Shine lakov za nohte. Zdaj so v svoj nabor dodali še 5 novih jesenskih odtenkov, ki so čudoviti in nekateri zelo unikatni.
Tako kot vsi ostali njihovi laki, imajo tudi ti kvadratasto stekleničko s črnim plastičnim pokrovom. V vsakem je 10 ml izdelka in redna cena je 5.90€. Laki so pogosto znižani in trenutno jih lahko dobite za 2.90€ (tukaj).
Čopič je navaden, ravno odrezan. Formula je kremasta in se z lahkoto nanaša, ampak ni popolnoma prekrivna. Potrebovali boste dva nanosa, da prekrijete celoten noht.
Se dokaj hitro sušijo in so dobro obstojni. Na mojih mehkih in cepljenih nohtih se obdržijo 3 do 4 dni. Finiš je zelo sijoč in vsekakor spominja na gel lake. Če nanesete še njihov nadlak, bo finiš še bolj sijoč.
Stonewashed Clay
Unikatna mešanica sive in svetlo olivne. Sama bi jo opisala kot sivo z olivnim tonom. Je zelo unikaten, a hkrati klasičen odtenek. Vsekakor zanimiv dodatek dolgočasni sivi.
Rouged Cider
Umazano lososov odtenek. Je kot bi lososovemu odtenku dodali malo umazano rjave barve. Zelo unikaten odtenke v mojem naboru lakov. Izgleda kot odtenek rdečila za lica, ki bi si ga želela imeti v svoji zbirki.
Pined-Perfection
Borovo zelen odtenek. Ta odtenek je zvest svojemu imenu (Pine = bor). Izgleda kot pravi borovec, srednje umazano zelen odtenek. Obožujem ga. Težko je najti unikatne, rahlo umazane, zelene odtenke, ki izgledajo tako lepo kot ta.
Jaded Sky
Petrolejski odtenek. Moj fotoaparat nikakor noče ujeti pravega odtenka tega laka. Izgleda kot mešanica temno rjave in modre. Na mojih fotografijah izgleda veliko bolj moder kot je v resnici. V živo ima zelen dodatek in je res pravi petrolejski odtenek.
Marmalady
Rjavo marelični odtenek. Mene spominja na marelično marmelado. Je moj najljubši odtenek izmed vseh in po mojem mnenju tudi najbolj unikaten. Ko sem ga nosila, sem dobila veliko komplimentov in to od takih, ki jim podobni odtenki sploh niso všeč. Je rahlo retro in zelo unikaten.
Menim, da so to eni izmed najbolj unikatnih odtenkov lakov. Pogosto najdemo take umazane in odtenke z zanimivi podtoni pri višje cenovnih znamkah in ne toliko v drogerijah.
Jesenski odtenki so eni mojih najljubših odtenkov na splošno. Obožujem zelene in breskvaste odtenke. Marmalady je moj zmagovalec v kategoriji najbolj unikatnega odtenka in je vsekakor en izmed odtenkov, ki bi vam ga priporočala. Tudi vsi ostali odtenki so zanimivi. Jaded Sky mi je najmanj všeč. Verjetno zato, ker na splošno nisem ljubiteljica modre.
Priporočam, da si katerega izmed teh odtenkov dodate v svojo zbirko. Imajo kremno formulo, sijoč finiš in so dokaj dolgo obstojni. Preglejte tudi druge odtenke v Gel Shine liniji. Med njimi je še več zanimivih jesenskih odtenkov. Moja favorita sta Mauvelous in Wine And Dine Me.
