Illamasqua Pastel Nails: Nudge and Blow
I was SUCH an Easter morning candy child. 🙂 My petty blood brother and I always looked forward to Easter because our parents would fill our baskets to the brim with sweets!
Jelly beans, Peeps, chocolate bunnies, Cadbury Mini Eggs, yum…
Which reminds me — eff you Cadbury Mini Eggs 
for making your candies so hard to resist!
Every Easter morning, afterward tearing through the house on the hunt for hidden eggs, nosotros'd gorge ourselves on candy until our tummies injure.
Memories of Easter mornings flooded back today when I swatched 2 of the four colors from Illamasqua's Pastel Nails collection for jump.
The colors have been available through illamasqua.com for a while, merely they go far at Us Sephora stores this May ($14 each).
From left: Caress, Wink, Blow, Nudge
Nudge (the creamy greenish blue) and Blow (the flossy yellow) look good enough to consume! — which would non be a good thought BTW (don't practice it!!).
Nudge
Accident
Neither of them produced streaks, either. When I lay the brush downwardly and motility it from cuticle to tip, the color applies smooth and even. Two coats resulted in a fully opaque nail.
Definitely have a big dose of patience, though, because they are really thick. I felt like I spent a while removing backlog colour from the brush, not that it takes away from their performance; it simply makes 'em take a little longer to use.
Oh, if you're familiar with Communist china Glaze'south Up and Abroad Collection, you might experience a wee fleck of de ja vu/vu ja de as I think Red china Glaze'south Lemon Buzz (a creamy yellowish) and Re-Fresh Mint (a flossy dark-green-bluish) wait kinda familiar.

From left: Illamasqua Nudge, Prc Glaze Re-Fresh Mint
Lemon Fizz and Accident look near like twins, while Nudge and Re-Fresh Mint look like second cousins (Nudge is perhaps bluer and Re-Freshment more green).
At present, I think Mainland china Glaze formulas are thinner and a little easier to work with, which is just a fiddling something to think near.
So far, I really like what I've seen. Can't wait to bank check out the other colors this May!
The other cat…
It was sunny but however common cold this morning so I wanted to vesture the pair woolly boots my mom got me for Christmas. Tabs, however, was NOT having information technology because he's claimed them for his own.
Why you lot then obsessed with boots?
When he isn't snuggling the boots, he'due south attacking them, like some kind of strange kitty love-hate relationship. Information technology'southward the weirdest thing!
I bet his little kitty brain thinks they're another cat…
Your friendly neighborhood beauty aficionado,
Karen
