These days, simple, pretty nails just don’t cut it anymore. Nail companies are pumping out polishes with textures that mimic all sorts of other materials: snakeskin! velvet! feathers! The newest entry is by Illamasqua, who’ve concocted a formula that dries into a matte, rubberlike finish (kind of like the dominatrix boots they were supposedly inspired by). Available in six electric colors, they’re long-lasting and chip-resistant — and could probably also be used to re-caulk your tub.
