Illamasqua Baptiste

Here is another purple beauty from Illamasqua. This time it is the nail polish Baptiste that was another item I received as a Christmas gift from my lovely boyfriend.
I hate wearing nail polish without a fast-drying top coat, and since my Seche Vite went all viscous on me a couple of days after Christmas, I decided to avoid nail polish until my new one had arrived. That's why I haven't posted any swatches or reviews on it yet. :) And speaking of fast-drying top coats, this time I got the one from Poshé insted of Seche Vite, since it is supposed to be better. Of course I will write a review on that one as well, some time.

Illamasqua's Baptiste is a dark shimmery purple which is nothing but gorgeous. I think it is a perfect adornment for both short and long nails and I find it classy and a little crazy in the same time, which is a winning combination.

Honestly, it is hard to find something to complain about when it comes to this nail polish. It is a great formula which is easy to work with and it dries quite fast. One of the nails started chipping after about 24 hours but I don't think it has anything to do with the polish itself since the others stayed just fine for yet another 24 hours. I must be cruel to my nails or something because nail polish tend to chip on me after only a couple of days... Or maybe that is normal. I don't know.

The only reason I won't give this nail polish 5/5 is because of the chipping. As I said I don't know if it is me being awfully careless with my nails or the actual polish, but I have tried polishes that has stayed perfect for up to 4 days...

As usual I would love to hear your thoughts on this product. :) Do you have it or plan to get it?

Thank you so much for reading and hope you'll have a lovely weekend!
