This week I took another break from my Nail Varnish Challenge and tried out this little Illamasqua number I've had lying around for months! I think I got this back in May when they did one of their amazing promotions. I ended up getting it for just under £6!!! In general I think Illamasqua are a little bit overpriced but they certainly make up for it by doing 50% off promotions and having really good sales!
I'm so pleased I got this. I don't really like any of the other colours from the I'mPerfection collection, but this one is lovely. I've used 2 coats and got an opaque finish. I was worried the sequinny bits might be hard to spread evenly but they weren't too bad. I have a couple of more 'bald' areas (see ring finger) but I guess that's part of the charm as well!
I've just had a look on Illamasqua's website and this shade has been discontinued!! :(

So pretty! It was a limited edition, I believe. When does Illamasqua usually run sales? I've got nothing from the brand yet and not paying full price is always a plus in my books :D
ReplyDeleteAll the other speckled ones are still there so it's a bit odd haha! If you follow on Twitter that's the best way to find out about their sales! They have them every few months so it's worth waiting if you're not desperate!
DeleteI soooo wanted to get this nail polish but it was out of stock during the sale. :( sniff, sniff.. And I don't want to spend the normal price - it's outrageous in my opinion. It's just the perfect lilac shade and speckles make it so much fun - loving your mani! X

Oh no!! Yeh I'd never pay full price for the nail varnishes, they're so expensive. I'm sure it'll crop up in blog sales at some point :)
Deletethis looks like fancy nail art, so cool xx
ReplyDeleteYeah! I had a few people asking how I'd done it haha :)
DeleteI bought this nail varnish as soon as it came out, I love it! I wanted to buy all the speckled nail varnishes but at £14.50 each I could only buy the one. Illamasqua are definitely my favourite make up brand! x

This looks absolutely gorgeous, I'm gutted it's been discontinued or I probably would have headed over there !
ReplyDeleteIt's nicer than the others in the way it doesn't look quite as much like a cadbury's mini egg...
