Illamasqua Nail Polish – Part 8,943

Illamasqua. It’s a word I’ve been saying A LOT lately and will be saying even more once they hit the US and Sephora this year, WHOO HOO! Seriously, I am totally amped up about this and am pretty sure they are going to rival MAC as far as my favorite makeup brand. I love brands that are edgy and different and cater to a “darker” side of people’s psyches, because that’s where my psyche lies most of the time!

Anyway, this isn’t really part 8,943, but I have posted so much of their fabulous nail polish I feel like it is. Check these beauties out!

Milf

Ahhhh Milf. It may have a “controversial” name, but really, who cares? The color is so freakin fabulous it could be named Hairball Soup and I would still love it. This is a superb minty green creme, I think the best one I have ever applied. The application was on the thicker side, but not unwieldy. This was fully opaque in two coats.

Illamasqua Nail Polish AND giveaway!!

My love affair with Illamasqua continues…

Illamasqua Wayward Illamasqua Nail Polish AND giveaway!!
Wayward

Isn’t this yellow most decadent? It’s bright, sunny, warm and cheery! This definitely leans towards orange, but not too much. And amazingly it was not that much of a bitch to apply! This was three succulent coats.

Illamasqua Nail Polish for Summer 2009

Illamasqua released two new colors for summer and I got ‘em both for ya! As per usual, they rock. I haven’t come across one yet that I didn’t love from this company, I swear! I am practically peeing my pants thinking about what they could possibly have in store for us for fall. You KNOW a vampy-ish company like this is gonna have some sick dark colors and I am really excited to see what’s in store!

Illamasqua Muse Illamasqua Nail Polish for Summer 2009
Muse

Muse is a really pretty and uncommon teal blue creme. It’s not the same kind of teal we have seen from Misa and Essie and butter LONDON though. This is darker and has more grey to it. A peacock teal perhaps? I don’t know. I do know I love it (sorry for the messy application on my middle finger) and it only took two coats to apply.
