Illamasqua Naked Strangers Collection Swatches & Review

It's no secret I love each and every Illamasqua release. Their collections are always true works of art, beauty and creativity combined.

Today I have for you two of the new Naked Strangers polishes Monogamous and Swinger.






Monogamous is a pink nude creme with a satin finish. I don't usually wear this type of color, they tend to give me "corpse" hands but somehow the rubber look changes that. I applied two coats here and it was enough but you might need a third one depending on your level of practice.






Swinger is a very shimmery cool gold, leaning pewter. It reminds me a lot of the discontinued Dior Timeless Gold so if you've missed on that one, you should definitely get Swinger. I used two coats for my swatches but opacity was really good, I think you could even get away with a single carefull one.






The Naked Stranger collection is already available at Illamasqua.com. The nail lacquers retail for £13.50, worlwide delivery available.

    I'm still not sure I can get behind the rubberised finished - it still looks kind of unfinished to me... Loving the gold though, definite special occasion nails :)

    The nude of monogamous makes me want to die! That color is breathtaking. I want that and swinger but honestly I've never met a polish from Illamasqua that I didn't like. It's really such an amazing company that always keeps me coming back for more!
