Illusionist: Smoke Show (B488) - Gray Cream Stamping Polish

I’ve used this primarily for shadows and it fits the bill. Isn’t super bold on darker colors, but that’s ok. You may want to opt for a lighter gray if you want it to stand out on blacks/super dark shades.

Another gray must have shade. I paired this with the book stamping plate and it looks so good. Stamps great and such a pretty almost lilac color.

It stamps so well on light colors but on dark colors it’s super subtle. Doesn’t show up well. If you’re going for a subtle dark on dark manicure it works well for that. The stamp always comes out clean with this medium grey polish though and I love that.

I like this dark grey color. But I had a very difficult time getting it to pick up the stamps. It got very thick and sticky the first time I used it. It was a warm day - mid 70's, and I think that contributed, but this was the first time I've had a polish get goopy at the first use. I need to get a thinner and hope that will make it work better, because I really do like the color.

Perfect for gravestones, rainclouds, and a good alternative to basic black when I want to mix it up.
