The recent arrival of Illamasqua's I'mperfection collection has everyone in a flap (pun fully intended for the speckled polishes that take center stage on this launch.
Don't get me wrong the entire launch is delightful with a bright pink lipstick (review coming soon), a funky yet innovative blush brush, blush duo's and so much more but the polishes are what we all want to get our hands on and rightly so too!
All in there are five speckle type shades that remind me both of freckles on the face/body and Cadbury's Mini Eggs, due to the light pastel base shades they are soft and very Spring appropriate yet the dark matte glitter particles which give the speckle effect give an all over edgier feel.
Speckle is a milky blue toned lavender base with black matte glitter chunks of varying sizes.
Illamasqua polishes are renowned for their quality and this shade is no different two quick coats gives an impressive yet unique finish with a high sheen almost jelly finish coupled with a quick drying formula.
It really is love in two coats and what could be more perfect that Mini Egg inspired nails for upcoming Easter?
I am completely hooked and it is all I can do not to order the other shades in the collection.
What do you think of the I'mperfection collection and most importantly the speckled polishes?

DeleteThese are actually called milky glitters not speckle posh :) you can find a lot of cheaper alternatives to this I the drugstore or indie polish companies!
ReplyDeleteAh sorry I wasn't referring to all glitter polishes of this type just the Illamasqua ones which have been dubbed Speckle/Freckle polishes, sorry about that :) yes there is lots out there ( I wish more Indie brands would ship to the UK ) and Revlon have launched a few too which is exciting :)
DeleteSuch a beautiful colour and I love the effect it gives! xxx

I absolutely love this, and the fact that it matches mini eggs is even better - I feel it makes it more acceptable to eat them if they match!
