My Illamasqua nail polishes (quick overview with swatches and video)Moji laki od Illamasqua-e (hiter pregled s swatchi in videom)

Since there’s a nice summer sale on Illamasqua’s web page, I thought I’d do a quick overview over the Illamasqua‘s products that I own. I don’t have a lot of them, since they are expensive. Some of the products were sent to me for review purposes in the past and some I bought myself. This is a bunch of products ready to be swatched.

I’ll start with the nail polishes. Here’s a video that shows all of my nail polishes by Illamasqua: Bacterium, Hectic, Milf, Raindrops, Nudge, Baptiste, Phallic.

My thoughts on Illamasqua’s polishes:
The bottles of the polishes are square, which I love. The cap is glossy black, which is nice to look at, but not pretty when there’s tons of finger prints on it. :hmm: The caps are detachable, which is a huge plus, as it’s hard to paint your nails with a square handle. The color range is nice. The polishes dry pretty fast. The wear for me is nothing spectacular. The same as with other good quality polishes. The price is as with all the other Illamasqua products quite high. Are they worth it? Well, that’s up to you. If you like the color, if you have the money, if you like Illamasqua’s bottles … I got some of them for review purposes and some I bought myself. Would I buy them again? I guess yes. I like the colors that I bought and some of the polishes have a special story behind it … No regrets there. ;)

My favourites:
Raindrops – although it’s pretty sheer I still LOVE it! I love the beautiful tiny silver flecks of shimmer in it.
Hectic – my first creme olive green. Although I was a bit disappointed at first, because it’s watery and needs three coats for ful coverage, I still LOVE it!
Milf – no disappointment there. Love the color and the name is bold. I like the whole package.

My today’s manicure is the mixture of Baptiste and Phallic nail polishes. I applied two coats of each. The application was easy. The polishes are well pigmented and they dry pretty fats. These two polishes look spectacular in the bottles. Phallic has wonderful sparkly shimmer, which gets lost when the polish is dry and the polish looks kinda flat. The shimmer sparkles only when it’s in full sun. Baptiste looks like an awesome duochrome in the bottle. It looks mesmerizing in the bottle, unfortunately it looks just dark purple on the nails. Don’t get me wrong, it’s still a wonderful deep purple, but not a duochrome.

Ker je na spletni strani znamke Illamasqua super poletna razprodaja, sem se odločila, da naredim rkatek pregled čez izdelke znamke Illamasqua, ki jih premorem. Morda pa moje besede, fotografije, swatchi, video komu pomaga pri nakupu. Nimam ravno ogromno njihovih izdelkov, ker so kar dragi. Nekaj izdlekov sem dobila v review v preteklosti, nekaj pa sem jih kupila sama. To je kup, ki čaka, da ga poswatcham.

Začela bom z laki zanohte. Spodaj je priložen video, ki prikazuje vse moje lake od Illamasqua.e:Bacterium, Hectic, Milf, Raindrops, Nudge, Baptiste, Phallic.

Moje mnenje o lakih:
Stekleničke so oglate, kar mi je izredno všeč. Pokrovčki so črni s sijajem, kar je zelo lepo za pogledat, a izredno grdo, ko je na njih polno prstnih odtisov. :hmm: Pokrovčki so snemljivi, kar je ogromen plus, saj je z velikim kvadratastim ročajem težje lepo nanesti lak. Izbor odtenkov je dober. Laki se kar hitro sušijo. Obstojnost ni spektakularna. Podobna kot pri ostalih lakih dobre kvalitete (OPI, Essie …). Cena je kot pri vseh ostalih izdelkih te znamke visoka. Ali so vredni toliko denarja? To je pa čisto odvisno od vas samih. Če vam je kakšen odtenek zelo všeč, če imate denar, če so vam všeč njihove stekleničke … Kvaliteta res ni slaba. Odločitev pa vaša. Smaa sem nekaj lakov dobila v oceno, nekaj pa sem jih kupila sama. Bi jih kupila še 1x? Mislim, da ja. Odtenki so mi všeč in nekateri laki zbudijo kar nekaj spominov … V glavnem … nakupa ne obžalujem. ;)

Moji favoriti:
Raindrops – čeprav je precej prosojen, ga vseeno obožujem! Drobni srebni delci (mini krpice) so tisto, kar ga naredijo posebnega.
Hectic – bil je moj prvi takšen odtenek. Čeprav sem bila najprej razočarana nad nanosom in konsistenco, ki je precej vodena. Lak rabi tri nanose za popolno prekrivnost, ga kljub temu obožujem.
Milf – nobenega razočaranja tukaj. Všeč mi je tako barva kot tudi drzno ime. Celoten paket je super.

Moja današnja manikura je mešanica odtenkov Baptiste in Phallic. Nanesla sem po dve plasti. Nanos je bil enostaven. Oba sta dobro pigmentirana. Sušita se hitro. Oba izgledata spektakularno v stekleničkah. Phallic je v steklenički čudovit moder odtenek s polno svetlikajočega šimra. Žal pa na nohtih lak izgleda precej mrtev. Leksetajoči šimer se kar izgubi in se prikaže samo na močnem soncu. Baptiste je steklenički čudovit duochrome, žal pa na nohtu pride le temno vijoličen. Ne me razumeti narobe, barva je čudovita globoka vijolična, a ne duochrome.

  1. Glede na cene lahko rečem samo da dobro da ta znamka pri nas ni dostopna (preko neta ne naročam). Všeč sta mi raindrops ter Baptiste…
