Just a Mani Monday: Revel Nail Anne & Phoebe

Welcome to Mani Monday! 

Every OTHER Monday I will bring to you one of my personal manicures that I've been wearing. Each time Ill take the time to talk about the color, how its been lasting on me so far and any issues I may run into. I will do follow ups on the previous manicure each following Mani Monday post. 

This weeks Mani Monday is Revel Nail: 

Anne - Light True Purple 

Phoebe - Silver Glitter

Application Date: 3/13/18 

Current Wear Time 6 Days 

-No Chips

-No Lifting

-No Color Fading 

This week was my FIRST time ever trying Revel Nail I do have to say the application process and results didn't differ to much from Color Club Serendipity. I do like that Revel is more affordable long term and has many more color options. One of the downsides of Revel is that its not readily available in big box retailers like Walmart and it does have to be ordered. For my first mani I had to go purple. I'm a purple girl through and through. With Spring coming I wanted to keep it light and bright so I chose Anne and Phoebe as an accent nail. Anne is described as a light true purple I don't feel that's the best description of it when I think of "True Purple" I think of in your face Barney Purple do I feel this is a lighter version of that? No. To me Anne falls in the color range of between Lavender and Lilac Purple it screams SPRING IS HERE! I really do love this color and couldn't be more happier with the outcome of my manicure. As a newbie I did run into some issues with my manicure the primary being I over buffed my nails. Yes that streakiness you see in the images is NOT an issue with the color it was a user error where I over buffed. We all live and learn right? Other than that I found no issues with the application of my Revel colors I chose. As you can see colors like Phoebe its un-noticeable if you over buff but be cautious when working with solid colors that don't hide imperfections well.

Nail Mail: Revel .5oz Launch Part 1

March 1st Revel nail expanded their dip powder line by not only offering 1, and 2oz powders jars but now .5oz jars. These .5 ounce jars are on the extremely affordable side at $7.99 a jar and get approximately 7 manicures. Home users have been reporting that you can get 10-14 manicures out of these jars. It all comes down to how many dips you use and whether your using the same color for your full manicure. These jars are larger than the Color Club jars in the Serendipity dip powder set from Walmart. 

Now that launch day is over its the best time to order. I found when I ordered during the sale my turn around time was quick but some others were not. I will say I went overboard during the sale not only were the jars affordable but Revel did a promotion that every 5 you bought you got one of your choice free. So who can pass up such a great deal? I sure couldn't. I did place 3 orders and will be sharing them over the next week. Please keep an eye out for swatches as I do plan on swatching all my colors.

My First Dipping Experience

Let me start this post with a little background on myself. My name is Heather and I started dipping my nails 3 weeks ago. In that time Ive done 1 YES 1 manicure. Up until now I couldn't find a product that worked for me. Regular nail polish would chip off the same day, gel polishes I would get a 3 day max wear out of a product that was supposed to have longevity, and acrylics were pricey and badly damaged my nails. I found out about nail dipping via the wonder world wide web I was highly interested but was afraid it would be just to complicating for an average person like me. I spent hours upon hours watching videos on YouTube from brands such as SNS, Revel, and Kiara Skye. Finally I got word Walmart yes WALMART of all places was now carrying a dip powder system from Color Club called Serendipity. I quickly hopped online to check the color selection out and found 1 that was perfect for me the Oh La La French Manicure set. This set was $20 yes TWENTY dollars I felt like I hit a jackpot by finding a starter kit so cheap. It was worth the plunge to me I had to do it at this point I came home and jumped in, but as I jumped in I quickly realized I don't even know how to do the french manicure I'm just going to take the easy way out and use just the gold glitter. I started to follow the steps the whole process took me about an hour as I did it over tips but it worked! It really worked! I was shocked and delighted and told everyone I could tell. Over the last 3 weeks my nails had held up so well that's not to say Ive had a few snags along the way because I have. Out of 10 nails I have 8 intact but I don't blame this on the actual dip set I blame it on user error. One error was on my right thumb I didn't lay my tip flush against my natural nail so it lifted. My second issue was my left pointer finger I had to re-dip a few times because my color wasn't coming out shiny it kept drying so dull so I ended up with a lot of bulk once I got it right. I hated my pointer finger and I did what no one should do I picked and picked and plucked it off my pointer finger was sore for days! Moral of the story properly soak or drill your powders off do not pick them off. So here I am head over heals in love with the 1 product I found that finally works for me dip powders. I thank Color Club Serendipity for sending me on my way to a spiraling addiction of buying nail powders, nail accessories and plates for stamping. Please stay tuned as I continue to update my blog with everything from nail mail to mani pictures.
