ILNP Clever Girl

One good ILNP of course deserves another, so more shifty shimmers for all Halloween all month!

ILNP Clever Girl is a cool, soft grey that's warmed up to a concrete tone due to the masses of bronze-gold chunky shimmer filling the crelly-style base.  I can see some VNL in macro shots here, but that wasn't the case IRL, the shimmer was enough to have this looking opaque at 2 coats.

In low lighting, the scattered holo flake gave Clever Girl a subtly speckled appearance, and the gold shimmer almost completely vanished.  Formula was great on this, and ILNP's brush never gives me any grief - super smooth, dried evenly, wore nicely.

In any kind of regular to bright light, though, the shimmer wasn't at all shy, and was a nearly metallic zing on top of the creamy grey base.  In brighter light, the silver holo flake vanished, leaving only a rainbow sparkle, but no speckling.  Also, the shimmer was a surprise duochrome, tilting distinctly greenish in angled light.

I've stamped an accent nail using the skeleton design from Bundle Monster BM-413, first in NanaCoco Love Black, then in El Corazon White for a shadowed effect.

Rating:  Clever Girl gets 4 out of 5 stars.  It wore well and was very easy applying, exactly the sort of thing to take on vacation or for a subversive neutral to a business trip.

Where to buy:  direct from ILNP.
