ILLAMASQUA GLAMORE COLLECTION SWATCHES & REVIEW

Hey guys, I hope you've had a lovely weekend. My weekend was good,  we had some friends over yesterday and then today I spent half the day painting walls, I actually don't mind painting so I'm happy but tired! 
Anyway today I have the Glamore collection from Illamasqua! I wasn't planning on buying these because you guys know I'm not a fan of textured polishes but then I bought the lipsticks for my mum and they had an offer on so I just bought them! 
So I was a just a tiny bit disappointed when I saw these because I don't like textured nail polishes but these are lovely and I will wear them with topcoat :)
I have used 2 coats for each swatch, I've included swatches with and without topcoat.



First up is Trilliant, this is a lovely Nudey Champagne colour which I didn't think I'd like but I actually do. It wasn't overly textured either.





Below I've used two coats of Essence Better Than Gel Top Coat Sealer.



Next is Fire Rose, this is a super girly pink explosion! Not really my thing but still very pretty. The silver glitter in it cools the pink down a little bit and it looks slightly metallic. This was as textured as Trilliant.

Finally we have Marquise, which is so so gorgeous! It's more orange irl than my pictures show and the shimmer in it is more vibrant irl too. In the bottle the shimmer looks like it may be a bit duochrome but it's not on the nail. This doesn't have hex glitter in it like the other two so the texture is different in this one and more tolerable for me.

So that's all the swatches, I hope you liked them! They're all soo sparkly and even more so when you apply topcoat. They all apply really easily and cover really well. You can buy these from the Illamasqua website for £15 hereOverall it's a nice collection and my favourite is Marquise, what's yours?

  2. I wonder how Marquise compares to Jinx/Destiny and the Kiko. It looks lovely but I thinkiit's too similar. I loooove textures.

  3. OMG!!! These nail colors are all so very pretty. Among these three, I want the fire rose. I super like the color for its classy and so perfect for any occasion.
