Illamasqua MILF! Get your mind out of the gutter you dirty birdy! :)
So this is my first Illamasqua polish and I love the color and sadly I'm a bit annoyed with the formula. Maybe I got a bad bottle, it happens, but this was a PITA to apply. It was drying before I even got to the tip of my nail, thus creating mega lumpy lines and impossible to smooth with the brush. Thank goodness for polish thinner.(I used it with the np brush to smooth the bumps and lumps) Just insane, it usually takes me 5-8 minutes to completely polish both hands but this was nearly 15 minutes to get it looking decent. But the color is worth the extra work.
Pardon my dry, red fingers. It's freezing outside!
It looks so different in the shade!
So what do you think? Should I konad it?
It reminds me of the 50's ( even though I was't there.lol)
ReplyDeleteI like the way it looks! I think it could look fun with some Konad on it.:)
ReplyDeleteHow pretty your nails look! I bought this also. I haven't tried it yet. My girlfriend went to CVS after work and bought me Revlon's Valentine and Frankly Scarlet. I put on Valentine right away. It's a really deep red and I love it. She also found 2 Sinful Colors there. She said CVS doesn't carry them. Konad those nails. They would look awesome with a deep green. Can't wait to see what your gonna do!
ReplyDeleteThat is a gorgeous color, you should konad it with black!
ReplyDeleteGorgeous! Ive been waiting all day for this and it was worth the wait!
ReplyDeleteOmg...that looks so yummy!
ReplyDeletelittledeadmommy- It does have that 50's retro shade.
ReplyDeleteMadeline- that's 1 for konad!
Lucy- Your girlfriend is a doll!You lucky lady you!
gildedangel- konad it is!
Jessica- ((hugels))
Lisa- That was my first reaction too! yummy! Thank You!
Stunning colour! And yes, Konad please!
ReplyDeleteSOOOO PRETTY!
ReplyDeletei gotta get me some Illamasqua polish!
this color is too cool! i would have given up on the application though out of frustration! i just don't have time for all that!! lol
ReplyDeletesorry i've been MIA - long week!
It certainly is a pretty color, but like Diane, I would have probably given up. I just don't have the patience for funky formulas.
ReplyDeleteOMG I love this! It's such a "so ugly its awesome" color! (Wait...does that make sense?) You NEED to Konad this bitch up. Or sparkles...well, I'm just partial to sparkles, but I think it would look awesome!
ReplyDeleteI'm so in love with this color... you've just reaffirmed my need to own this!
ReplyDeleteLove,

i LOVE this color! every time i went to go and buy it at sephora they were out of stock... even online. it was so frustrating! i was waiting for over 3 months to get this color. i FINALLY got it about a week and a half ago and grabbed 2 bottles just in case. haha! i didn't experience the trouble that you had applying it but my nails aren't as long as your are. perhaps that's the difference?? not sure but i really like the formula and it's top notch. it's waaaaaay better than MAC and the shine is still there and i've experienced no chipping or anything. i love Illamasqua's polish. i also got "Untold" b/c it looks like Dorothy's ruby red slippers when you layer it. it's beautiful!
ReplyDeleteLOL!
ReplyDeleteThat name is hilarious
This is a unique color, real nice!, and yes you should konad it.
ReplyDeleteStifler's Mom!!! LOL.
ReplyDeleteI said it on the NB, but I'll say it here... it looks great on you. I know it would look poo on me, which is why I've resisted it. I picked up Muse, with my Sephora GC, instead.
Your hands look like mine. I think you live just down the road from me (I'm in Knoxville), and the weather is killing my hands, nails, and cuticles. Today, I slathered my hands in cuticle oil and slapped on gloves just to get some relief.
Megan- I seriously considered Muse but MILF won.
ReplyDeleteYes I'm just a cup of coffee away from you! The air/weather here is torture on my hands and nails.(I don't have much for cuticles) I'm pulling out my parafin bath tomorrow to fix these granny hands up!
