WIN THE 10 MOST CHIC NAIL POLISHES FROM AVON

Ana Morodan | On 08, Mar 2013

 

 

Here’s a truth - I almost never have a perfect but that picture perfect manicure! I’m not handy when it comes to  these things. God knows I’ve tried. I have a small (actually kinda big) phobia about manicure saloons and all those sharp tools. Because of that I always do (try, give my best, implore the Gods to succeed) my own manicure. And I always use red, ever since I was in high school and my English teacher, whom I respected immensely, was only using that color. I got inspired and that was it, promised myself  to only use this feminine and sensual color – It would be my trademark.

Last week, when Avon told me about their colorful nail polishes and about their new campaign, I said to myself “Why not give it a try and be creative with some other colors too?” after all, if you use them wisely, other colors can tell beautiful stories also.

 

 

 

 

Maybe some of you are asking yourselves  “Why does Ana choose to work with Avon  from time to time?”

I love Avon because besides their focus on beauty products one of their purpose is to built women’s confidence, to teach them that being independent, powerful and feel beautiful at the same time is easily achievable by all of us.

 

 

Speed Dry is the Best

 

 

They sent over 10 beautiful nail polishes, in many chic colors and challenged me to be daring, to do a creative manicure and have an optimistic  day. Life is made of small parts no?

Better yet, they  told me to dare YOU to remake my manicure and in return, the most creative of you can win 10 colored, chic nail polishes from AVON – cool gift for Woman’s Day no?

 

Without a doubt, I am gonna use my favorite/ countess like color – bloody red

 

 

Several grey hairs and tons of minutes later -  here’s my work of art

 

You can do it too - a heart in a nail

Brief, here’s what you have to do if you want to win 10 chic nail polishes from Avon

 

  • be daring, energetic and optimistic and paint your nails like I did or similar – forget about the dots if you can’t handle them, as pointed above, it costed me 4 grey hairs to make them
  • take a picture of your new manicure (phone picture accepted)
  • uploaded it on your Facebook and put the link in a comment under this post along with your contacts

 

The most beautiful manicure will win 10 chic nail polishes from Avon

We have a deadline for this marvelous contest, it’s 18-20 of March so get your nails done (#smile, #wink, #fun, #avon, #coolcontest)

    Ana,

    I love this surprising piece of information, that you do your own manicure because you are afraid of manicurists at beauty salons. Wonderful to hear, I am afraid of letting someone else clip my own nails, though love having them painted on, and I feel much better knowing this! Do you actually master the art of giving them a nice shape and what do you do with the cuticles? How good are you at painting them? ;)

    Alina, I am a bad manicure handler, everyone that comes in contact with me can tell you that. It’s one of my biggest flaws. That’s why I loved this Avon campaign, because it helped me get better at this.

    Being afraid of nails saloons and getting infected means that I have to do my own nails and I SUCK at this.

    I only use red nail polish as I said, never cut my cuticles, one nail has a round shape and one has a rectangular shape, one is smaller than the other, stuff like that :)

    Buuuttt, I dare you to try and remake my manicure, who knows, maybe you’ll end up with 10 nail polishes and you’ll start practicing this like I did and you’ll get better, I can certify that :)

    Hahah, funny! And yet, up until this post I could have sworn you get your nails done at a salon and I was always sighing, “ah, I will never be able to achieve this one” and everybody else I know, except for my best friend who also doesn’t cut her cuticles and paints her own nails, seems to go to specialized help . Good to know, thanks for sharing. I am going to try, inspiring post!

    Hello! Theese are my amateurish painted nails!
    I am no professional, but I love having flowers and petals painted on my nails for this spring beginning! The quality of the photos is not great, but I promise I will redo the photos with a better camera soon! I hope you like them!

    I’ve seen this post over an hour ago, and here I am, writing to you about this task you’ve given us. I loved your idea at first sight. But as I was thinking if I could do it or not, I was already looking for the nail polishes and all the stuff I have to use in order to make my nails look at least acceptable. And here they are, at my first atempt to paint my nails not in just one color. I have to admit it, it was not as dificult as I tought it would be, and I did really enjoyed painting them.

    Hi! I’m really happy that i found your website. It’s amazing, i like your style a lot. I’m a huge fan of nails, nail art, nail polishes and stuff like that, and when i saw this contest, i was like “YES! Another chance for me to try my luck and maybe win some beautiful nail polishes”. So here i am. I didn’t try to remake your manicure, but i wanted to prove you my imagination and creativity, and, why not, my talent. So here they are three of my precious (i sound a little bit like Smeagle, don’t i?)manicures. Hope you like them.
    Have a great week!

    Hy everyone!
    My name is Cristina and I like your manicure Ana! I prefer a simple manicure because I can’t do something cute by myself.
    As you see I tried to remake your style but my nails doesn’t look perfect. I LOVE red because it’s a happy colour, I look more feminine wearing it.
    I need more colours of polishe to be mine because this is the way to be special for me everyday, my nails art wouldn’t work good.
    Here you have to links to my “magnificent” nails:
