I told you once the indie floodgates had opened I’d have no chance at resisting them any more… Thanks a lot Happy Hands Metal Heart! 😛 So I was browsing on Llarowe through the Hare Polish polishes (because they are all GORGEOUS!) and Medusa Luminosa was in stock, and so it accidentally fell into my shopping cart and I accidentally entered my card details and accidentally ordered it… I just don’t know how it happened! 🙂
Medusa Luminosa is actually a type of Jellyfish… I’m so happy about this because ocean creatures always mesmerize me (even if Jellyfish scare the hell out of me!) I just think they’re so beautiful and I feel like this polish really captures the luminous iridescent appearance of the Medusa Luminosa.
This is honestly one of the most beautiful polishes I think I own 🙂 the base is a vibrant pinkie-blue-purple (not quite as blue as the photos show) with purple microglitter, red/gold shimmer and iridescent blue sequin glitter. It’s so pretty!! My nail line seems really visible in the photos; it was visible but barely in person. I feel like I don’t need to explain this polish any more, the photos do the talking!
Application:
Medusa Luminosa is a little on the thick side which makes neat application a little difficult, but this is nothing that can’t be sorted with some thinner. The photos all show 2 coats, so 3 coats would probably be totally opaque. It also would work really well layered over other colours, particularly different shades of purple or blue. The finish is a tiny bit bumpy, but one coat of Revlon Quick Dry topcoat sorts that. Just be  careful to wrap your tips or you will get shrinkage with this one.
I can’t think of anything else to say other than it just glows on your nails – I’ve worn this twice since I got it a couple of weeks ago which is saying quite a lot for me!! You can sometimes get Medusa Luminosa on Llarowe when she has a restock (it’s currently sold out) it cost me $19.88 including shipping from the US, which works out at around £12.77 which I think is pretty reasonable for such a gorgeous polish. I have a bit of an obsession with Hare Polish at the moment, I’ve just bought another 5… whoops!
What do you think of Medusa Luminosa? Would you pay £12.77 for it? 🙂
