Illamasqua Baptiste - Swatches

My love for Illamasqua is no secret, so when they had a 20% off event for reaching 50k Facebook fans, I picked up a couple of polishes.

This is Baptiste. I'm bored of not posting my nails now, so you can all put up with my nubs! ;) and strange camera angles due to it being my *gasp* right hand. 

Look at that ring finger. Nail tore right off.

Anyway, Baptiste is stunning. Deep vampy purple packed with shimmering red and blue particles, it has a real depth to it. 

The formula is like butter and rich in pigment. I'd say it's a one-coater, or two coats for fools like me. I believe this originally came in a set with Boo! as part of the Pantomime nail duos, but Boo! is no longer available. Sad face.
