Lovely As The Lavender Fields of France


"...Imagine fields of bright purple and delicate mauve under a deep blue sky, take a deep breath and experience the true scent and colour of Provence, France." 
So I had picked up two absolutely stunning, classy, elegant colors from the new Revlon ColorStay polish line: "Provence" (named after the famous lavender fields in Provence, France) and "Calla Lilly".  When I bought them, I was imagining a nice dainty mani with these used together as a duo.  This is a total 180 from my last edgy vampster mani ;)  I really loved these 2 polishes together & they are so sophisticated.  And you can't beat the $4 price for this quality of lacquer! Makes me wish I was really in Provence!


 Revlon ColorStay: "Provence" by itself


 It's a very light muted greyish lavender....very pretty

 How about a little lavender scent to go with lavender nails???

 now let's add some subtle shimmer with Revlon ColorStay "Calla Lilly" - a sheer milky base filled with gold fleck shimmer (in some lights shines iridescent green-blue) beautiful.



 some outdoors shots for direct sunlight on the shimmer


It's a great look for Spring & is a knockoff of many other polish brands' new nude-ish style color lines....plus its so much cheaper than the average $8+ dollar brands like Zoya/Essie/OPI

    I almost picked this polish up today, but it didn't suit my skin tone. It looks lovely on you though, and with the layered look it keeps it very fresh and quite bright.

      Thanks so much!!!! its def a lot more subtle than most of my other color choices. i think it'll look even better when its spring/summer & my skin is more tan

    What a lovely combination! Provence kind of reminds me of Zoya Megan in some photos but this looks more lavender / pigmented than Megan.
