Revlon Iced Mauve

I realised I hadn't shown you Revlon Iced Mauve on it's own in the sunlight before I used it for my pastel water marbling. So I used Revlon Quick Dry base coat and then two thin layers of Revlon Iced Mauve. If you use a thicker coat it is opaque in just one layer. The formula isn't as bad as most Revlon nail polishes, this one is easy to control and not crazy watery. To finish it off I applied a coat of Sally Hansen Mega Shine top coat.

I took these photo's in artificial light once I applied my top coat.

Then these were taken in natural light, outside in the lovely sunshine. You can see where I clumsily managed to knock my nails - oops!

Iced Mauve is a gorgeous purple pink colour, a light mauve. It has a subtle shimmer to it that you can see in the photo's. It has a longer dry time than other nail polishes but most of the Revlon polishes I use take quite awhile to dry. This is a beautiful colour and easy to grab if you're in a hurry since it's opaque with one thick coat. Just remember to let it dry without knocking it - unlike like me!
