My Take on Revlon Icy Violet:

Icy Violet is a nice shade from purple family. It has micro glitters in blue color. I think they are really very fine and camera would not be able to capture their effect. Still I have tried to take pictures in different lights and location. Like day light, evening time, lamp light and tube light :D Let’s see how they all look. Enjoy NOTD’s pictures.

 This is a cool deep purple with blue iridescent shimmer that flashes in the light. :) After 5 days of application. It is still intact without any signs of chipping.

 Look from a distance :)

You would love it if you are looking a purple shade. The consistency is also pretty decent and it glides really smooth. 2 coats of it and you are good to go!

Pros:

§  Very smooth to glide and apply.

§  Highly pigmented.

§  No chipping before a week.

§  Not very shiny.

§  Very good coverage with two coats

§  Good lasting power 

§  Easy to remove with acetone/remover.

Cons:

§  Might require a top coat for very high shine.

Will I Repurchase Revlon Icy Violet:

May be, I will try the shades that I don’t have.
