I'm a simple Scottish girl with an unusual name and a strange obsession for nail polish! My aim is to capture what the eye sees, with a camera! Too much nail polish and never enough time. I have also started wildlife photography, which I enjoy very much. Welcome to my little world :-)

Illamasqua Vice



This is okay to use and okay to apply. Don't have a lot of polish on the brush or application is tricky. Drying time is okay (about 2 minutes for a coat). This is one of the rubber finish polishes that Illamasqua released a few years back. It's a pretty colour with a pretty finish! Lasted well.

    1. Yeah I remember when these first came out and tried them and wondered what on earth was a 'rubber' finish!

      Yeah that are quite pricy! :-|

  5. A rubber finish that lasts? Amazing :) The only real issue I have with waxy/rubber finishes is how unself-leveling the polishes are. Super cool finish, though, and this color is gorgeous!!

  7. I wish Illamasqua were available in Italy too.. Love their products, but shipping prices from their website are so expensive, expecially after the Royal Mail ban for nail polishes....

    1. Yeah the Royal Mail ban on shipping polishes abroad is annoying! I know there are companies that do it for a very high fee :-(

  9. Beautiful Ananka!!! Thank you of reminding me of this beauty!!! And if I remember correctly it wore well on me too - it just got an ugly greasy shine around my tips after a day or two. However, it never looked as nice on me mostly because of my ridged nails - oh well it is gorgeous on you dear xxx
