Review: Avon Gel Shine Nail Enamels - Whole Collection

Hey Beauties!

I was offered a chance to try the whole Avon Gel Shine collection and of course, I couldn't resist. So today I'm introducing you to all the shades from this collection. They've just added 6 new shades as well as top coat. 


These nail polishes should give you gel like manicure as in salon, but without having to use UV light and having trouble taking it off. New formula with nourishing omega oils promises to give you intense color with one coat and even more shine

Color range is huge and has a bit of everything. You can choose among 20 different shades. It goes from neutrals to pastels to bright vibrant colors and some darker ones. 


Most of nail polishes have a standard creme finish with some exceptions that also have a bit of shimmer in them. Lighter shades definitely need at least two coats to cover the nail and not look streaky, while some darker ones can be worn with just one coat

They are all very shiny and I would agree with Avon that they do look like gel nails, especially if you apply top coat over it. 


Formula is creamy and it depends from shade to shade. Not too runny nor too thick. Brush is standard straight cut and medium wide

They all dry fairly quickly. I've already had a few shades from this collection and they weren't as long lasting as some other nail polishes from their range. I've decided to try out one of their newly added shades with the combination of top coat and it surprised me how well it lasted on me. Today it's fourth day of wear and I have minimal chipping only on my both index fingers and one middle finger. It might be because of the new improved formula or top coat, which made it last longer. I'll report on that, when I try it some more. As I've said before I have very weak nails prone to chipping.

Let's see how the shades looks like on the nails. I've tried to describe them as best as I could and also tell you if my camera picked it up differently than it looks like in real life. On the left side are swatches with one coat and on the right side are swatches with two coats. 

Iceberg White - very light grey toned white. It needs at least two coats and has creme finish.



Sheer Love - pastel pink. It's a mix of creme and sheer. It needs at least two coats.



Dazzle Pink - salmon pink with duo chrome white and pink shimmer. Shimmer finish and it needs at least two coats.



Barely There - pastel grey brown. It's creme finish and needs at least two coats.



Mint To Be - pastel mint. My camera didn't wanted to pick up true color of it on the swatches photo. It's a bit more green tinted, kind of as it looks like on the first photo with just nail polish. Creme finish and needs two coats.



Rain Washed - cool pastel blue. Again having problems with photographing it. The swatches photo is more true to a real shade. Creme finish and needs two coats.



Lavender Sky - pastel lavender purple. It's creme finish and it needs two coats.



Citronized - warm lime green. Creme finish and it needs two coats.



Orange You Crazy - bright orange. Creme finish and it needs two coats.



Fabulous - red based pink. Creme finish and it needs two coats.



Parfait Pink - medium pink. Creme finish with small amount of tiny silver shimmer. It needs two coats.



Verry Berry - berry pink. On the photo it looks more red, while in real life it's a tiny bit more purple toned. Creme finish and one thick coat can be enough.



Mauvelous - medium mauve. Creme finish and one thick coat can be enough.



Purplicious - warm dark purple. It's a bit more warm toned than it looks like on the photo. Creme finish and it needs two coats.



Fire Cracker - bright orange red. Creme finish and it needs two coats.



Roses Are Red - bright red. Creme finish and it needs two coats.



Red Velvet - medium burgundy with tiny gold shimmer. Pearlescent finish and it needs two coats.



Wine And Dine Me -  oxblood. Creme finish and it needs two coats.



Emerald City - medium emerald. Another one of those colors that my camera doesn't want to pick up properly. It looks a lot more green based in real life. Creme finish and it needs two coats.



Sapphired Up - cobalt blue. Creme finish and it needs two coats.



Top Coat

To coat is suppose to make your manicure last two times longer and prevent chipping or peeling. As I've mentioned before I used it with Mint To Be and I wore nail polish for four days with no problem. I think it might be that top coat actually helped prolong the wear of my manicure. 


It's on the runny side and I didn't notice that it would smudge my color underneath. I also noticed that it did make my nails shiny, but the colored nail polishes are really shiny on its own as well, so the difference wasn't too obvious. 

On the left side is Mint To Be without top coat and on the right side it's with top coat. 



Regular price of nail polishes is 5.90€, but currently they're on offer for 4.90€ and you can even buy more of them for less here.

Regular price of top coat is also 5.90€, but currently you can get it for 4.90€ here.

I love the shade range of Gel Shine nail polishes and I was really surprised how well they lasted on me with top coat. They have a nice creamy formula and dry fairly quickly. I especially like pastel shades like Rain Washed, Mint To Be and Lavender Sky. I also really like bright summery shades like Citronized, Orange You Crazy and Fire Cracker. Mauvelous gets the most unique shade title in my opinion. I also love Purplicious, which is darker, but looks nicely bright in its own way. Wine And Dine With Me reminds me so much (in fact it can be a dupe) of Maybelline Colorama 261, which I've worn all through the fall. What are your favorite shades?


Now you also have a chance to win a whole range of these nail polishes. Avon Slovenia is having a photo contest on their Facebook page. All you have to do is take a creative photo inspired by Avon nail polishes. It can be your favorite nail polish shade, manicure or nail art.

Ponudila se mi je priložnost za testiranje celotne Avon Gel Shine kolekcije in seveda nisem mogla odkloniti. Danes vam predstavljam vse odtenke iz te kolekcije. Pred kratkim so dodali v kolekcijo še 6 novih odtenkov in nadlak.

Ti laki obljubljajo profesionalen videz gel manikure kot v salonu z izjemno, da vam ni potrebno uporabljati UV lučke in da se odstranjujejo kot navadni laki. Nova formula z negovalnimi omega olji obljublja intenzivno barvo z enim samim nanosom in še več sijaja.

Kolekcija je ogromna in vsebuje malo vsega. Izbirate lahko med 20 različnimi odtenki. Odtenki se gibljejo od nevtralnih do pastelov do živih močnih in do temnih.

Večina lakov iz te kolekcija ima standarden kremni finiš z določenimi izjemami, ki vsebujejo tudi nekaj bleščic. Svetli odtenki vsekakor potrebujejo vsaj dva odtenka, da se noht prekrije in da ne se ne vidijo potegi čopiča. Temnejši odtenki se lahko nosijo tudi s samo enim nanosom, ker so bolj prekrivni.

Vsi so zelo sijoči in strinjala se bom z Avonom, da lahko izgledajo res kot gel nohti iz salona. Sploh če uporabite še nadlak.

Formula je kremasta. Ni preveč tekoča, niti preveč gosta. Vsi laki imajo standarden ravno odrezan čopič, ki je srednje širok. 

Vsi se precej hitro sušijo. Pred tem sem že imela nekaj odtenkov iz te kolekcije in mi niso zdržali na nohtih tako dolgo kot kakšni drugi iz njihovega nabora. Zato sem se odločila, da preizkusim enega izmed novih dodanih odtenkov v kombinaciji z nadlakom in bila sem presenečena kako dobro se je obdržal na nohtih. Danes je četrti dan nošenja in samo kazalca in en sredinec sta rahlo okrušena. Ostali so vsi še v precej dobrem stanju. Predvidevala lahko, da je za to "kriva" izboljšana formula ali nadlak, ki je podaljšal obstojnost. Več o tem bom poročala, ko ga bolj stestiram. Kot sem že večkrat omenila, jaz imam zelo slabe nohte, ki se pogosto cepijo.

Poglejmo kako odtenki izgledajo na nohtih. Potrudila sem se čim bolje opisati odtenki in omeniti, če moj fotoaparat ni ujel pravega odtenka oziroma tako kot izgleda realno.

Iceberg White - rahlo sivkasto bel. Kremni finiš in potrebuje dva nanosa.
Sheer Love - pastelno roza. Rahlo bolj prozoren in potrebuje dva nanosa.
Dazzle Pink - losos roza. Šimrast finiš. Vsebuje majhne bleščice, ki se svetlikajo srebrno in roza.
Barely There - pastelno sivkasto rjava. Kremni finiš in potrebuje dva nanosa.
Mint To Be - pastelno mint. Moj fotoaparat noče ujeti pravega odtenka. V resnici je veliko bolj zelenkasta podlaga modre. Kremni finiš in potrebuje dva nanosa.
Rain Washed - hladna pastelno modra. Kremni finiš in potrebuje dva nanosa.
Lavender Sky - pastelno sivka vijolična. Kremni finiš in potrebuje dva nanosa.
Citronized - topel limeta zelen. Kremni finiš in potrebuje dva nanosa.
Orange You Crazy - živo oranžen. Kremni finiš in potrebuje dva nanosa.
Fabulous - rdečkasto roza. Kremni finiš in potrebuje dva nanosa.
Parfait Pink - srednje roza. Kremni finiš z majhnimi sivimi bleščicami in potrebuje dva nanosa.
Verry Berry -  jagodičasto roza. Na footografiji izgleda volj rdeča, med tem ko je v resnici malo bolj vijoličasta podlaga.  Kremni finiš in en gost nanos je dovolj.
Mauvelous - srednje sivkasto vijolična. Kremni finiš in en debel nanos je dovolj.
Purplicious -  topla temno vijolična. V resnici je malo bolj topla kot pa izgleda na fotografiji. Kremni finiš in potrebuje dva nanosa.
Fire Cracker - živo oranžno rdeča. Kremni finiš in potrebuje dva nanosa.
Roses Are Red - živo rdeča. Kremni finiš in potrebuje dva nanosa.
Red Velvet - srednje vijolično rdeča z zelo majhnim zlatim šimrom.  Potrebuje dva nanosa.
Wine And Dine Me -  rjavo temno rdeča. Kremni finiš in potrebuje dva nanosa.
Emerald City - srednje smaragdno zelena. Še en odtenek, ki ga moj fotoaparat noče ujeti v pravem odtenku. V resnici je veliko bolj zelenkast. Kremni finiš in potrebuje dva nanosa.
Sapphired Up - živo modra. Kremni finiš in potrebuje dva nanosa.


Nadlak

Nadlak bi naj naredil barvo dvakrat bolj obstojno in jo ščitil pred luščenjem in pokanjem. Kot sem že prej omenila, sem nadlak preizkusila skupaj z Mint To Be in sem lahko lak nosila brez vidnega luščenja kar štiri dni. Predvidevam, da je nadlak pripomogel k podaljšanemu nošenju moje manikure. 

Je tekoč in nisem opazila, da bi mi razmazal barven lak pod njim. Nohti so po uporabi nadlaka res sijoči, ampak barvni laki so že sami po sebi precej sijoči, tako da v tem primeru ni bilo opazne razlike z uporabo nadlaka. 

Na levi strani je lak Mint To Be, na desni pa je skupaj z nadlakom. 

Redna cena lakov je 5.90€, ampak trenutno jih lahko dobite za 4.90€ oziroma še ceneje, če jih kupite več naenkrat tukaj.

Redna cena nadlaka je prav tako 5.90€, ampak trenutno ga lahko dobite za 4.90€ tukaj

Zdaj imate tudi vi priložnost dobiti celotno kolekcijo teh lakov. Avon Slovenija ima foto natečaj na svoji Facebook strani. Vse kar morate storiti je, da ustvarite fotografijo z navdihom Avonovih lakov za nohte. Lahko gre za vaš najljubši odtenek, manikuro ali nail art. Svojo fotografijo lahko naložite tukaj in imate odlično priložnost, da zadanete dovolj lakov do konca življenja. 


Avon je bil tako prijazen, da mi je priskrbel giveaway za bralke mojega bloga. Podelila bom pet mojih najljubših odtenkov in sicer Rain Washed, Mint To Be, Citronuzed, Orange You Crazy in Purplicious. 

Vse kar morate storiti je da izpolniti Rafflecopter, ki se nahaja nad slovenskim prevodom objave. Nagradana igra se konča 25. maja. Odprta je samo za Slovenijo. 

Obožujem Gel Shine kolekcijo in resnično me je presenetilo kako dobro je lak ostal na mojih nohtih v kombinaciji z nadlakom. Vsi laki imajo dobro kremno formulo in se precej hitro sušijo. Meni so še posebej všeč pastelni odtenki kot so Rain Washed, Mint To Be in Lavender Sky. Zelo všeč so mi tudi živi poletni odtenki kot so Citronized, Orange You Crazy in Fire Cracker. Mauveloous je v mojem pogledu najbolj unikaten odtenek. Zelo mi je všeč tudi Purplicious, ki je temnejši, a po svoje vseeno precej živ. Wine And Dine With Me me spominja (mogoče je celo enak) na Maybelline Colorama 261, ki sem ga nosila skozi celotno jesen. Kateri pa je vaš najljubši odtenek?

Review: Avon True Colour Matte Eyeshadow Quad - Au Naturale

Hey Beauties!

I like Avon Eyeshadow Quads and have quite a few of those. Mocha Latte was my first quad palette and I especially loved two matte shades in there, so when I saw that they came out with three all matte quads I was really excited. Au Naturale is the most neutral brownish palette and I absolutely love it.


All their quads have a shiny black plastic packaging. It's compact and closes well. It's also great for travelling, because it's small.

You get double sided foam applicator, but I never use these any way.

Regular price of these is 10.60€, but they are almost always on offers for less. 




Au Naturale is neutral brown palette. The shades are also very neutral. They're not too warm neither too cool. 

Shade 1 - warm nude.
Shade 2 - warm taupe light brown.
Shade 3 - neutral chocolate medium brown.
Shade 4 - dark chocolate cool brown.


Texture is very silky and on the dry side, but I notice that these mattes are a bit more wet than those from Mocha Latte. They are a bit crumbly, because of the drier texture and you might experience some fall out. Just tap the brush before applying on the lids and it will be good.

I also noticed that these mattes are very pigmented, actually more than most of their mattes from other quads. Shades blend really well. They are also buildable. The more you put on the darker the shade. On the bottom you can see how light there are with just one swatch, while on the upper photo you'll see that they can be build up to a really dark shade. 


Shadows stay on me the whole day with minimal fading. I always use them with Avon Ideal Flawless eye shadow primer. I also didn't experience any creasing through the day. Only if I work out, then they will go a bit into the crease, but that's with all eye shadows I wear. 

I also compared two shades from Au Naturale to two matte shades from Mocha Latte, because I was curious if they're identical and they're actually not. Shade 2 from Au Naturale has a more visible yellow undertone, while Shade 2 from Mocha Latte has a bit more taupe or purple based shade.  They are both similar, but not quite dupes.

I also compared Shade 3 from Au Natural with Shade 4 from Mocha latte and 3 is darker than 4 and also a bit cooler, while 4 is much more red based and warmer. 


I already showed you how these shades look like in my All Brown Matte Makeup post. 






I also used it in other makeup to show you that it can look a bit less intense, if you don't apply it as heavily. 




I'm really glad Avon decided to add some all matte palettes, because I've been loving the two from Mocha Latte and actually wished for more brown matte shades from them. These are nicely pigmented, a bit crumbly, stay well on the lids and don't crease. Pigmentation is not out of this world, but to me this means that it's more wearable and blendable. I really like this Au Naturel selection, especially the fact that they're not too warm nor too cool. Definitely recommend it to those that want staple neutral matte palette with decent quality. 

*The product was sent to me. 




Avon četverci senčil so mi zelo všeč in imam jih kar nekaj. Mocha Latte je bila moja prva paleta in v njej so mi še posebej všeč mat odtenki. Ko sem videla, da je Avon naredil nove popolnoma mat palete sem bila navdušena. Au Naturale je najbolj nevtralna rjavkasta paleta in jaz jo obožujem.

Vsi njihovi četverci imajo sijočo črno plastično embalažo. Je kompaktna in se dobro zapira. Všeč mi je tudi za potovanja, ker je precej majhna. 

Zraven dobite tudi dvostranski aplikator z gobico, ki pa ga jaz nikoli ne uporabljam.

Redna cena palete je 10.60€, ampak Avon jih ima skoraj vedno v ponudbah po nižjih cenah.

Au Naturale je nevtralno rjava paleta. Odtenki so tudi precej nevtralni, ne preveč topli, niti hladni.

Odtenek 1 - topla nude.
Odtenek 2 - topla sivkasto svetlo rjava. 
Odtenek 3 - nevtralna srednje čokoladno rjava.
Odtenek 4 - temno čokoladno hladno rjava. 

Tekstura je zelo svilnata in sicer bolj suha kot vlažna. Čeprav opazim, da so ti mat odtenki veliko bolj vlažni kot na primer tisti mat odtenki iz Mocha Latte. Se tudi zelo lepo zabrisujejo. Senčila se malo drobijo zaradi suhe teksture in lahko vam padajo pod oči. To rešite tako, da preden nanesete senčilo na veke, malo stresite čopič. 

Opazila sem tudi, da so ti mat odtenki veliko bolj pigmentirani kot večina mat odtenkov iz drugih palet. Možno jih ne nadgrajevati. Če naneste tanek sloj, bodo senčila nežnejša in svetlejša. Če pa nanesete več slojev, postanejo temnejša. 

Senčila na mojih vekah ostanejo ves dan in zelo malo zbledijo. Pod njimi vedno uporabim Avon Ideal Flawless podlago za veke. Tudi nisem opazila, da bi se mi čez dan senčila nabirala v gubici. To se zgodi samo kadar treniram, kar pa je normalno glede na potenje in se mi to dogaja tudi z drugimi senčili. 

Primerjala sem Au Naturale z mat odtenki iz Mocha Latte, ker me je zanimalo ali so odtenki enaki in niso. Odtenek 2 iz Au Naturale je vidno bolj rumenkasto rjav, med tem ko je Odtenek 2 iz Mocha Latte bolj sivkas oziroma skoraj vijoličast. Oba odtenka sta si zelo podobna pa vseeno ne enaka. 

Primerjala sem tudi Odtenek 3 iz Au Natural z Odtenkom 4 iz Mocha Latte in 3 je temnejši kot 4 in tudi bolj hladen, med tem ko je 4 bolj rdečkast in topel. 

Odtenke senčil sem vam že pokazala v moji objavi All Brown Matte Makeup. Na drugih fotografijah pa lahko viditi, da lahko odtenki izgledajo tudi manj intenzivno, če jih nanašamo z bolj nežno roko. 

Res me veseli, da se je Avon odločil dodati v svoj nabor še nekaj mat palet. Dva mat odtenka iz Mocha Latte sta mi bila zelo všeč in želela sem si še več takih rjavih mat odtenkov. Ti so dobro pigmentirani, malo se sicer drobijo, dobro zdržijo na vekah in se ne nabirajo v gubo. Pigmentacija res ni izjemna, vendar zame to pomeni, da so senčila bolj nosljiva in se lažje zabrisujejo. Zelo mi je všeč nabor odtenkov v Au Naturale, še posebej dejstvo, da niso preveč topli, niti preveč hladni. Vsekakor priporočam vsem, ki si želijo vedno uporabno nevtralno mat paleto z dobro kvaliteto senčil.

Review: Innisfree Smart Foundation Perfect Cover in 13 Light Beige

Hey Beauties!

Innisfree is the first Korean natural brand. Their products are based on natural ingredients from Jeju island. I won't go into details, buy you can read more about their brand here. I've heard that their skin care products are really popular. This foundation got me interested because of the smaller size version and perfect cover claim. It's hard to buy foundation online since you don't really get to test it out or even see if the shade fits you. That's why I like that it comes in smaller size and of course with smaller price as well. 


Innisfree describes this foundation as a high coverage foundation formulated to conceal skin imperfections while leaving the skin with a dewy finish. It also contains Jeju mineral powder and green tea which help skin look healthy and alive. 

It comes in a size of 15 ml and I bought it on Jolse (here) for 6.70$. You can also get it directly from their site here. Innisfree intentionally made it in the smaller version, because it means you can test it out and see if you like it without buying a huge size and then throwing it away. 

It comes in a paper box. The packaging of foundation is a plastic squeeze tube, which I really like. It's practical and because of the size it's also perfect to carry around with you. 


The nozzle has a very small hole and it's easy to control the amount. You can squeeze out tinniest amount possible. I love this system a lot. 


Shade 13 Light Beige is actually the lightest shade in my foundation collection as well as in their range. It's definitely warm toned, but it's more of a peachy tone rather than yellow. I guess a bit of a mix, but definitely more peach toned. When I blend it into the skin it looks fine and I don't see it being as peach as it looks swatched. It matches my skin tone perfectly. 


I applied it under my neck where I am really light right now and you almost don't see a difference between foundation and my natural skin. It's maybe a tiny bit darker. Peach undertone also works fine with my pale skin right now. On the left side I applied foundation and on the right side it's my bare skin. 


Consistency is a bit thicker, but it blends into the skin. Sometimes I feel like it's best if you don't have a lot of moisturizer underneath or it creates a barrier on top and doesn't seem to blend into the skin as much. If you apply it in thin layer it's a very light to medium coverage, otherwise I would say that it's lighter medium coverage. It evens out skin tone, but doesn't hide red patches or under eye darkness. 

This will almost accentuate pores if you have problems with them and it will also stick to dry patches and make them even more visible. 

It looks very obvious in the beginning, but it blends in with your natural sebum through the day and it actually looks better than at the beginning, although it's still very noticeable foundation. It stays slightly sticky to the touch, so I always powder it. Even with translucent powder it still gives you a kind of satin or dewy finish. The skin is not matte and also not completely dewy, but it has a very soft sheen to the skin. Even if I apply thin layer of powder I can still see the sheen through it. It looks very natural and healthy in the finish, but a bit obvious because of the consistency of it. 

On the left side is my skin with just moisturizer and on the right side is with Innisfree foundation. 



I compared it to two of my favorite foundations. Innisfree Perfect Cover in 13 Light Beige is a very light peach toned shade that is actually the lightest of them all. Bourjois Healthy Mix Foundation in 51 Light Vanilla is the yellowest or rather the most orange of them all. It's also the darkest shade and the warmest. Revlon Colorstay Combination/Oily Skin Foundation in 150 Buff is a yellow based shade and it's a bit darker than Innisfree. It might not look darker on the photo, but it oxidizes on the skin after a while. Innisfree almost looks like a mix of Bourjois and Revlon as far as the shade undertone goes. You definitely see it as warm, so yellow toned, but it also has a prevalent peach tone to it. 


It has an interesting scent, which I can't decide if it's floral or herb or mint based. I feel like it's a bit of everything. Nothing offensive and you only really smell it once you're applying it. 

It doesn't oxidize or turn darker with wear. It's definitely not long lasting, because it's fairy light foundation which means it will come off through the day. I don't check it through the day, but it definitely fades. It might also go a bit into fine lines or get cakey on dry or rough parts of your face. Definitely not the best natural looking foundation.


I think the name is misleading and you shouldn't count on this foundation giving you the best coverage ever, because it doesn't. I would describe it as for someone with fair skin tone that wants foundation to be luminous or kind of dewy and has a lighter medium coverage. I don't think this is appropriate for oily skin, those with enlarged pores or mature skins. It's a natural brand which should be taken into consideration if you're on a search for a "healthier" foundation and it's not all that bad. I mostly love it because of the fair shade and the luminous sheen, which I've embraced this spring. My only wish would be that it would look a bit less obvious on the skin and wouldn't gather in fine liner. Coverage doesn't bother me at all, I quite like it to be lighter for spring. 

Pastel Makeup

Hey Beauties!

I love pastels for my nails, but I always thought they don't suit me as makeup. I've seen some amazing pastel makeup looks online and really wanted to put my Essence pastel liners to use. That's how this look came about. I actually like it, even though it's not my usual cup of tea. I always think that pastels look better on someone with lighter eye color and blonde hair.


I started my eye makeup by applying eye primer and setting it with nude eye shadow. Then I added light brown to the crease as a transition shade. I applied pastel mint shade on the center of the lid. I took pastel lavender shade and applied it in the crease.


Then I added pastel lavender eyeliner in a winged like shape and tried to make it bolder to really stand out. I also used dark purple gel liner and slightly deepened around my lash line, but I tried to make it not very visible. Around my bottom lash line I applied creamy peach eye shadow.


Then I went over it with bright ocher yellow shade. I also used light yellow gold shade in the inner corners. It was time for lots of mascara to ground these pastel shades and finished. 



On my face I used very light foundation with matching concealer. I powdered my entire face. On the cheeks I used light cool toned matte pink blush. I also lightly used bronzer to balance it out with light eye shadow colors. For my highlighter I used light champagne gold shade. 


As this was pastel look, I also decided to go light with my lip color and chose pastel lavender pink. The whole look is very light in general and may not be for every taste, but I quite like that as a change. 



If you think it's too light, you can use bolder lipstick, like I did here. I used bright purple to make my lips stand out a bit more.


So what do you think of pastel makeup? Would you wear it or is it just not for you?
