AVON HAUL #5

I purchased these items about a month ago and totally forgot that I had done the haul video for it.  Too much going on right now so sorry for the delay.  I hope you enjoy and will check out the video below for more info.

Nail Art Sponge:  $1.49  These little tools are great for those starting to learn nail art and ombre and sponging techniques.  The kit comes with the plastic handle and 5 sponges.  After you use a sponge, just take it out of the applicator and turn it over to use the other side and even use the edges.  After you run out of sponges you can put your own in the applicator as well.  You will get quite a bit of use out of this product.  I love the applicator for more control and to keep hands from getting messy.  I don't know if these are still available. I have not seen them in the current AVON brochures.  

AVON Nailwear Pro Chillin Teal:  $6.00 This is really light and soft teal with reflects of silver.  This color would make a great french manicure or a great color for someone who does not like to have a lot of color on the nail, just a hint.  It is very soft and delicate and great for Spring.

AVON Nailwear Pro+ Green Goddess: $6.00  The camera doesn't do this color justice.  It is a light and delicate green with reflects of silver.  It is more of a satin finish and is a great color, again, for someone who just wants a hint of color.

AVON Speed Dry Crusin Coral:  $6.00  The Speed Dry collection claims to dry in 30 seconds.  What is does is it will start to set in 30 seconds but it is not completely dry for several minutes.  With these polishes, you have to work fast because when they start to set, they become streaky and hard to apply.  This color is a nice soft, feminine color for Spring and Summer.  Very light  with reflects of gold.

AVON Speed Dry Beachin Bikini: $6.00  Another soft color for Spring or Simmer.  This color doesn't come off great on camera but it is a soft orange/peach with reflects of gold

Eye Dimensions Eyeshadow:  $7.99 on sale $9.00 reg price There are 6 color trios in this line.  The others are Bronze Star, Khaki Chic, Diamante Purple and Sweetheart Plum.  The two I purchased are Sultry Smoke and Neutral Haze.  The description claims that they are a silky formula that wears for hours without creasing.  I did not experience either of these claims.  Some of the colors are so shimmery they are flaky which is not going to make application easy or silky.  I used these with an eyeshadow base and did experience some creasing and fading.

SULTRY SMOKE:  I have not used this trio yet, but I love the matte black.  The taupey color is nice but the champagne/pearl color is way to flaky.  It is too dry.  I will report back when I do use this trio.

NEUTRAL HAZE:  I have used this trio and really like the brown/burgundy color.  It doesn't have as much shimmer as the other colors and blends nicely.  The middle color which is a rose gold looses the rosy color when applied and just comes off as a champagne color.  I was disappointed with that.  The pearly color was also too flaky.  When I applied it to my brow as a highlight, it had way to much fall out and too much glitter.  I like a subtle highlight under by brow.  With this I looked like there was a disco ball on my eye.  Not attractive at all.
