Brand: Revlon
I just picked up a couple of Revlon Nail Enamels on sale for CA$2.99, Enchanted (which I swatched yesterday) and Socialite.
Socialite (525) is a pale pastel turquoise with very subtle shimmer. In the bottle, the shimmer is silver, blue and pink. On the nail, this basically translates to a faint silvery turquiose shimmer. It gives the effect that the polish has a cream finish, but with a soft sheen.
The polish is a little thick and doesn’t even out well, though I can forgive it a little since the color is a very whitened pastel. For the swatch, I did three coats in a semi-successful attempt to even out the polish.
Revlon Nail Enamel retails for around US$4.99 / CA$5.99 and is 0.5 US fl oz / 14.7 mL. It is free of toluene, formaldehyde, and dibutyl phthalate (DBP), and is made in the USA.
Revlon is a public company based in New York, NY, USA.
Really pretty! I just bought Revlon Charming, myself. A pale, pretty lavender!

Nice! I was deliberating between Charming and Enchanting (got the latter). Might go back for Charming, though 🙂

I have to say, I do love the pretty, light pastel colour of Charming!

This one reminds me of a Mary Kay one I have – application was a bish but the results were worth it. I find 3 thin coats usually get the job done on these types of colours.

Don’t think I’ve ever tried a MK polish! Are they not very good overall, or was it just that color?

They’re middle of the road. Not terrible but not outstanding. I don’t like the bottle / brush either:
(that’s the blue shade I have)
They’re definitely not as good as the Avon Nailwears.

I could have sworn that this was Minted!

I have only seen Minted in pics, think it’s a cream finish? Socialite has veeeeeeeery subtle shimmer. LOL hardly any. Kind of gives it a sheen, though.

I was going to purchase this polish but then I wasn’t sure if it would be sheer or not! I totally love this colour though, even though I have about 10 others that are super similar!

Yeah, if you have similar colors already, which perform better, then there’s no need to get this one 🙂 It’s a fab color, though! I am a sucker for this shade, too!
