I got Illyrian Starburst when it went on sale- it was going to be released during a Polish Pickup month (it was going to be called Arco Iris, from June Video Game theme). For some reason, I think it was a supply issue, it wasn’t released then and she released it later in her shop.
It has a purpley gray base and tons of flakes. I did 3 coats for this polish- I honestly almost always do 3 coats, especially with flakie jelly polishes, just to build up the base and layer the flakies.
It is a really really pretty color, and pictures don’t do it justice.
It has a lot of flakies in it, and that makes the formula super thick, but not unmanagable. Here’s a close up, you can see all the flakies, they’re really a pretty iridescent flakie.
I took a sunlight picture, and it is very pretty in the sun! It catches all the iridescent shimmer in the flakies.
With all the flakies, I feel like the polish almost looks more lavender than gray, which I like.
Overall, a great polish! I do like Illyrian, but you definitely have to know that you’re going to wait awhile for them to arrive after you order them!
Live your life with love in your hearts and glitter on your nails!
