Recently an UK friend, let's call her M, asked me to CP (custom purchase) the Urban Decay Naked palette for her. In exchange, I asked her to pick up two Illamasqua polishes for me. She sent me these:

Illamasqua Duo in Bacterium and Purity |
AND she sent me these surprises!!!!!

Nails Inc Denim (Diet Coke) |
I absolutely adore this shade. I am wearing it as a pedi right now, and it only took one coat!

Illamasqua Bacterium |
How funky is this shade? I love the creativity of Illamasqua.
I about fell out of my chair when I opened this one! I actually wore it as my manicure for 3 days. Some people have trouble with Chanel chipping on them, but I wore this with only minimal tipwear. I used Beauty Secrets Moisturizing Base Coat (thanks J for the tip!!!) and CND Air Dry Top Coat.
Thank you, M, for your generosity! You really put a smile on my face!
