Illamasqua Pink Raindrops ♥

Happy Thursday! I don't know about you but this week is kicking my butt and I am so glad there is only one more day until the weekend!

Illamasqua Pink Raindrops. I'm sure this polish needs no introduction - the original Raindrops is a massively popular polish that was discontinued and has since been re-introduced into Illamasqua's current line. 

To start off I want to say that I really do like this polish - it's very pretty and very feminine. However, I do not think it is a pink version of the original Raindrops. The original Raindrops is a grey crelly base with flakies. Pink Raindrops is a shimmery polish packed with flakes and an iridescent shimmer. It is slightly frosty and the base is not a crelly as with the original Raindrops. So, while it is lovely if you are expecting a pink version of Raindrops, you will be disappointed.

Pink Raindrops is a very light pink that often read nude on me, depending on the light. I really do love this one and will wear it often. I only needed two coats for opacity and one coat of Poshe. My camera had a very hard time capturing this polish and my pics are not my best. I took photos in various lighting situations so you could see all of its personalities.
