No Change Transforming Nail Color














I was so excited to get my Avon order in the mail today. I tried out my new items right away. I'll review one today and one tomorrow. Today, I'll talk about Change Artist Transforming Nail Color. 

This product has two separate sides; one being the color polish and one being basically a top coat. The top coat side has a very skinny striping brush of sorts. This top coat is supposed to enable the customer to make designs on your nails. It is supposed to transform your polish.

Please note I keep saying "supposed  to". My roommate and I both used the polish and the transforming top coat. Neither of us were satisfied with either product. 

While the polish itself is a very pretty color, it wears poorly even after several hours of drying time. The top coat didn't really transform the polish at all any more than any top coat would. 

The worst part of this product is, its a mess. The transforming top coat causes the polish part to run no matter how long you let it dry. It also streaks the polish. 

Maybe if I had more patience to play around with it, I could give it another go but as it is now I have one hand painted with just the polish and one hand with the streaky shiny polish and transforming top coat on. 

My roommate managed to do the tips of her nails with the polish and brush another color over her whole nail. It looked really pretty until it started coming off a few hours later. You can see in the picture it did look nice for a while. Trust me, that didn't last. 

Overall, I give this product a thumbs down. Nice try Avon. You have some great products but this isn't one of them. Tomorrow I'll review a lip product from Avon.

  1. Interesting content.

    Just wanted to share some information that may help busy professionals caught up with work and who have less time to maintain their nails. You can try out gel nails which are now becoming a hot favorite as they are natural looking even without nail tips and the best way for nail enhancement. Also, if you are allergic to those strong smelling chemicals which you can experience with acrylic nails, then you should use gel nails as these are odorless.

    However, when you are planning on gel nail application, make sure you approach a nail salon or a nail artist who is well versed with gel nails and is properly trained and mastered in gel applications. This will save you from problems that can arise with improper gel nail applications.
