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.

Beautiful Night and Day

My roommate got this as a valentine gift from me this year from Ebay. Yes, the colors really are as brilliant as they look. In fact, this picture doesn't even do them justice. As you see in the pictures on the models, the makeup is very beautiful. The colors really pops!

The lighter colors are soft and subtle and the brights are just spectacular. My favorite thing about this makeup is its staying power. The colors stay true and bright for at least 8-10 hours. However, when it is time to wash it off, it comes off quick and easy (especially with the Equate makeup removal pads) with no leftover stain on your eyes.

This makeup is good for both personal and professional use. Create different looks for day and night. Models: Amy Hass (myself) and Holly Lawson. Makeup by Amy Elmore.
