Avon Gel Finish Barely There & Sterling Nail Art

Avon Fall Trends - Neutrals For Work Cuticle Stone

The first of the colour reports for fall was green and it looks like Avon got it right as the new Pantone colour of the year is Kale!  The second of the colour reports is metallics and neutrals and I have two Avon Gel Finish polishes to share, Barely There and Sterling. On trend nails are […]

Avon Lavender Sky Geometric Design #31DC2016

31DC2016 Day 16 - Geometric Swatch - Avon Lavender Sky and MdU Fantasy - Pueen Geo Lover 02

Keeping the geometric prompt for the 31 day nail art challenge fairly simple as I wanted to keep the last two looks on as long as possible.  Luckily, I own a Pueen stamping plate called Geo Lover 02 making it an easy choice for today.  It looks so plain after using multiple polishes for flowers and […]

31 Day Challenge – Days 1 – 4 #31DC2016

Days 1 through 4 of the #31DC2016 31 Day Challenge hosted by Chalkboard Nails

I had planned on participating in #31DC2016 but somehow September just crept up on me and before I realized it, it was the 3rd and I had not done any of them.  Not giving up, I spent my day playing with nail polishes and making a huge mess.  Since I am behind, I cheated a […]

Avon Fall Colour Report: Green Nail Polishes

Avon Fall Trends - Green Nail Polishes - Citronized - Turquoise Pop - Noir Emerald - Envy

I love a good dark green in fall but the Avon Colour Trend Report for fall shows that all greens are in and they have options for every skintone and look from brighter yellowed greens like Citronized, ultra wearable blue-greens like Turquoise Pop and your typical darker jeweled greens like Noir Emerald.  I already had […]

Avon Mark. All Bundled Up Bath & Body Collection

Avon Mark Bundled Up Handcream and Body Mist Review

Mother Nature gave us a teasing taste of fall the other day and while personally, I was loving the cooler weather, I had to laugh at people in coats.  They are probably the same people who wear shorts as soon as the first hint of spring hits too.  As much as I hate the heat, […]

DAVIDsTEA Supreme Pekoe

DavidsTea Supreme Pekoe Tea Davids Tea Review - Perfect Spoon Loose

On to the next of the new limited edition traditional teas from DavidsTea this summer, Supreme Pekoe.  I had high expectations for this one, I love black teas and as a “supreme pekoe” it had to be good right? They promise a smooth cuppa of plain black tea giving a rich, malty and bold blend that […]

Avon Mark. Touch and Glow Cream Shimmer Bars

Avon Mark Strobing Blush Highlighter Palette Touch n Glow

My pale skin sticks out in summer.  In winter, no one really notices, everyone else is paler so you don’t seem quite so pale.  But in summer, Irish skin is so noticeable.  So I try to add as much colour as possible while still looking natural but it can be hard adding multiple products which […]

Purple Smoosh Mani with Avon Purplicious, Lavender Sky & Sterling

Avon Sterling - Lavender Sky - Purplicious - Swatch Stamped

I loved the smoosh mani I did with the CND Flirtation collection and since the Canadian Beauty Bloggers theme of the month is purple, decided to go for another smoosh for Mani Monday.  This time I used three Avon Gel Finish polishes, Purplicious (darker purple), Lavender Sky (lighter purple) and Sterling (silver shimmer) over a […]

Avon So Very Sofia Fragrance + Matching DIY Nail Wraps

Avon recently sent me their latest fragrance to try out, So Very Sofia by Sofia Vergara.  It promises a bold and feminine fragrance with top notes of passion fruit, base notes of herbal patchouli along with delicate Flor de Mayo Orchid, the national flower of Colombia, Sofia Vergara’s native country. I will admit that I […]
