Today I have Illamasqua- Cameo, one of two recent Sephora-exclusive Illamasqua polishes (the other one is Noble, which I will swatch later.)
Cameo is a really lovely bright periwinkle cream. I think it looks blue to most people, but it definitely leans purple. It's quite a Spring-y color, but I love to wear happy colors in the Winter, sometimes!
Artificial light, two coats:
Window-filtered daylight:
Outside, shade:
Shade, different white balance:
Sun:
It looks much bluer in the sun!
Formula: Like all Illamasqua polishes I've tried, the formula was excellent. It's on the thick side, and basically applied itself in two easy coats. There was slight VNL when I used flash photography, but otherwise was perfectly opaque after two layers.
Stay tuned for Noble; I'll swatch that one soon because I can't wait to wear it!
Gorgeous color! I can't wait to see Noble. :) I need more Illas in my life :)
ReplyThey are really quickly becoming my favorite brand!
I'm looking forward to seeing Noble, too, I'm a sucker for turquoise :D But this periwinkle is such a beauty, too! :)
ReplyI know....blues are so fun!
Very pretty color.
ReplyThank you!
Oh, I'm a blue h00r, and I have a soft spot for periwinkles so this one is screaming my name! Sadly no Sephoras in my country, poop. But it looks gorgeous on you! :)
ReplyOhhhh, I hate when a nail polish is hard to get in your own country! There is probably a close dupey color to Cameo out there somewhere though... :)
ok, super late but I came back to tell you I found Catrice It's all I can Blue on a local store and it looks really close to Cameo, success!! \o/ I wouldn't call them dupes, but they're certainly close to kill my lemming, mhuahaha :)
Yay! That is so awesome you found a dupish one!
