No Lack Of Lacquer

Illamasqua Kink
16/02/12

This is another of Illamasqua’s rubber-finish varnishes (I previously reviewed Vice). The colour is absolutely gorgeous, a rich bottle-green, but the lack of a top coat left it surprisingly vulnerable to denting. It’s less apparent on the pictured hand, but my right hand was a mess of dents and sheet marks, despite the varnish apparently being entirely dry before I went to bed (five hours after painting my nails). I still really enjoy the rubber cap that Illamasqua uses on these bottles - it’s much easier to grip and affords great control.
