NOTD: Avon ColorTrend "Refreshing Pear"

This is one of the new Ice Sheer nail polishes from Avon. I didn't realise these were scented until I was casually examining the box between coats! These are not as strongly scented as the Revlons from last year but it has a very nice subtle fruit scent! I am a sucker for scented nail polish; brings me right back to the late 80s when I got some of my first ever polishes (and I still have and use most of the today!).

This is 3 coats, unsurprising considering the name! No top coat, it dried fairly quick anyway (I was preparing strawberries within 20 mins).

That reminds me; I also bought the whole Footworks Cherry Ice foot care collection from Avon recently , and it's lovely! :) First I soaked my feet in hot water, then I scrubbed them with the Exfoliating Scrub, soaked them some more til the water was lukewarm. I dried off and massaged in the Moisturising Lotion and finished with a spritz of the Cooling Foot Spray. It made my neglected little tootsies smooth and soft and it smells divine!

Foot Spa!

Check out my new foot spa! :) I fractured my right foot all the way back in October. I am still suffering badly, especially now in the freezing cold. I am now in between x-rays taken and doctor's final verdict at the moment. You can hardly see the bruising cause there is so much bubbles from this machine, but its right on top of my right foot... :( It's really sore, only thing that soothes it is heat. So I got myself a foot spa with infrared heat and massage. The glowing red light is the infraheat pad. I have really small feet so I can put almost the whole of my foot on the heat pad, and it gets awesomely hot and soothes the pain deep inside the foot. Aaaaaahh... The massage mode is noisy and the bubbles are messy but it all adds up to one sweet machine for sore feet! :)
