Monday, May 31st, 2010 Coming Soon: Avon Going Green for Summer
Avon is embracing the ever so popular mint green trend this Summer with two new colors to the Nailwear Pro line. Jade, a green based (not blue, holla!) mint creme and Olive Green, a dusty green (think JITB) creme. Check out the swatches now!
Both Jade and Olive Green will be available online sometime in June.
Also new in June, Color Trend Ice Sheer Nail Enamels available in three colors: (L-R) Luscious Lemon, Delicious Berry and Refreshing Pear. Once dried each shade has a fruitalicious scent.
These are now available with campaign 13 and online starting in June. If you love green, don't miss out on Jade and Olive Green, both are definite keepers!
EDIT: Since it may be a while before I get to swatch these, here's a quick bottle picture above. Ladies, these are definitely worth picking up! Jade is a green based mint and Olive Green is a grey based green. If you're thinking Rescue Beauty Lounge Orbis Non Sufficit, you've guessed right! They're practically twins!

My Avon lady already had Campaign 13 out, so I ordered Jade. Don't know I should get Olive Green too, lol. Maybe I'll wait for your swatches :)

Thanks for the heads up, Steph! I'm a huge green-polish fan, so this is right up my alley. And how convenient: there's a woman at work who sells Avon. I'll have to place my order when it's available.

I have all these. Aren't they great?! Did you see the demo book for capn 15? 4 new pastel cremes. I love when they are @ the demo price.
Do you have blue flare or mink vison, they actually have a vamp too. darker than tweed.

Hi Christi,
Oooh, are they pastel? It was hard to tell by the promo pictures, but yes saw those along with new Speed Dry colors for summer! I'm definitely curious about Urban Gray!

Hi Jenni,
I can vouch for Avon's Jade, it's really gorgeous!! About two shades deeper than OPI's Damone Roberts 1968

Is Jade similar to MAC Peppermint Patti? It looks like it from the bottle pic.

Hi Jennifer,
No, it's much different. Avon's Jade has a lot more depth (as far as color) and Peppermint Patti is more pastel.

Hi, I just want to know that is Jade similar to china glaze's re-freshment? And I have not ordered from a long time, but are their nail polishes pricey?

Hi Kirn,
No, it's not. Refresh-mint is much more pale and pastel. The closest to Avon's Jade I have (not exact dupes) is OPI DR1968 http://www.stephscloset.com/blog/gallery/id/2992/damone-roberts-1968-nail-polish
Avon's Nail Polishes are pretty reasonable. Regularly priced at $5.00, but you can find them on sale around $2.99/ea!

I was waiting for these shades to be available also here in Italy when two greens with different names showed up on the catalogue, I wonder if they are the same shades... weird!
