Illamasqua Brigitte from Rozie
Luscious juicy jelly sheer rose pink! I’m not sure it’s my color but I love it and will joyously wear it anyway! It went on deliciously smooth, this is 4 coats. Don’t expect a vnl not to show! This polish looks dripping wet all the time. No topcoat here! Thanks Rozie for such a beauty!! I am so enjoying every one of them!
Illamasqua Poke from IceRozie
Rozie performed the greatest kindness for me ages back when she bought me a bunch of Illas that are Euorpean only. I had an orgasm, I swear. I’ve staved off using them until I could get her long awaited packge off! Now it’s on! This was one I wasn’t going to get! Can you imagine how po’d I’d have been??? Bright violet purple with multicolored micro glitter! It goes on like buttah, it stays like iron. Amazing polish and I’m so glad you got this one for me, Roze! Thank you!! Here’s a bonus pic of the bottle where you can see the aaahhhmazing microglitter!

Illamasqua Rampage
Hehehee… finally mine! Another fabulous score and longtime lemming from Jessika! Thank you, darlin!!
This is creamy perfection, and any application flaws are my fault! This is two coats, and I was impatient, so… you know.
The finish is a jelly, not matte and not super shiny. I topcoated with Poshe, and so far it seems Seche Vite works better for me with Illas. The drying time was a little longer on Rampage than the other Illas I’ve tried, but nothing that would make me not wear this gorgeousness! There’s no hint of black, it’s pure, deep green. I’ll try to capture a better pic next mani and add it. The lightbox is almost ready, but my hands are not, lol!
Illamasqua Grab
Excuse my dry horrible cuticles. Trying to get them to grow back onto the nail bed! I love this polish and love the color. What else can I say? Creamiest polish ever made… it HAS to be. If you don’t have an Illa cream, you just need one.
Illamasqua Phallic
I’ve been dying to review these polishes and we’ve had no light, so I give up. I’m moving on to indoor photos. Hopefully next month I’ll have a lightbox and can take some GOOD pictures. But for now, here we go!
Illas so far seem a bit thick to me. Not unmanageable by any means, but thicker than a typical ChG or OPI. I could easily have managed it in two coats, but my hands were shaky, so the application is imperfect. I have to apply these thicker polishes differently than I would a thinner polish and I’m not quite used to it yet.
The color is a very shimmery deep blue, and I don’t think it’s all that unusual, but it’s very pretty. I favor the Illa creams, I think.
Illamasquas
Look what showed up on my porch today!! Try to ignore my grubby paw prints! I had just put cuticle oil on and was so excited I didn’t wash my hands before I opened them!
Now, do I have the MOST awesome DH or WHAT!?! I whined about Illa week on MUA and that sweetie ordered these for me from Sephora! Not only that, my baby remembered what I wanted! They were out of Rampage, Muse, a few others, but this is awesome! Here’s the order they’re in:

Illamasqua MILF loaner from Jessika
I feel terrible wearing this polish with my fingers all messed up from me torturing them + freezing weather. But I wore it anyway! Let me apologize for my not so great photo, too.
Jessika!!!! You let me borrow your bottle of Illamasqua MILF and now I’m hooked! BWWAHAHAHAA! You’ve created a monster! 
James says “Thanks alot!”
The cremiest creme you could ever imagine. This goes on so smooth, you can’t dent it. I stuck my finger in it before it was dry, and the fingerprints popped back out. I watched it happen. Totally opaque in 2 coats. Application dream…it fixes itself. Amazing. Beautiful perfect minty green for warmer skintones. It makes your nails look perfectly smooth. I’m definitely getting this when the no-buy ends!
Thanks, Jessika! I mean that seriously! I love it, and you are so kind for letting me borrow! I keep it wrapped up and stored safely!
