I recently purchased two polishes from the Illamasqua Generation Q collection - Charisma and Creator. I am excited to share them with you.
"Generation Q is a clear message to everybody, everywhere that
beauty is not young, old, black, white, male or female,
but anything, everything and everyone," - Illamasqua website.
I love these polishes. The formula is phenomenal. Both polishes applied wonderfully and the dry time was pretty speedy.
Charisma is a gorgeous shade of berry wine. It has a generous amount of shimmer added to it. The first coat makes you wonder how many coats it will take. But amazingly the second coat provided an fantastic opaque finish. I didn't use a top coat on these swatches.

Creator is a jet black base with small multi size silver glitter. Again as I was applying the first coat it looked pretty sheer. The second coat provided wonderful coverage with lots of silver glitz. No top coat is used on these swatches.
