Allow me to introduce you to a quick insight my current beauty delight: Revlon's latest additions to its vast collection of fabulous products, Parfumerie nail polishes. I developed something of an obsession with scented nail polish when I went to Florida in 2012, spying a set of scented Crayola nail polishes (no, they weren't crayon scented, they were orange, bubblegum, apple and blueberry!) on the beauty shelves of Walmart and since then I've been on the hunt for a more grown up version. Imagine my excitement when I saw that Revlon were the answer to my scented nail prayers!
Revlon have brought out 24 shades and scents in their Parfumerie collection, three of which I currently own (Ginger Melon, African Tea Rose, and Beachy), where each nail polish scent smells akin to its name, for example my Ginger Melon above really does smell like I have melons on my nails once the polish has dried. You really don't need to build up the layers with these polishes to get them to smell how they're supposed to, two coats was all that it took for me to catch the scent of melons and even then the scent is not incredibly overpowering (because let's face it, who'd want their nails to smell strongly in everyday life, even if the scent was something amazing like candy floss or mint leaves!).
Truth be told I'm quite desperate to get my hands on some of the other colours/scents, particularly Wintermint, Pink Pineapple, Chocolate Truffle, Apricot Nectar and Spun Sugar. The bottles are adorable, the range of colours is appealing and the gimmick of scented nails still enthrals me, what's not to love? Oh, yes, the price - £6.49 for a single bottle is quite steep, but I don't think it'll stop me from trying a couple more...

I'm not sure how I feel about scented nail polishes, but this collection just looks lovely! From the colour range to the bottle, I've basically decided I need more than a few of these ;) x
ReplyDeleteI really want to get a few of these, I simply love the look of the packaging and I don't mind scented nail polish. I had one from Rimmel a few years ago and loved it x
