ILNP REFLECTIONS VOL. 2

November 4, 2026

Press Samples, affiliate links used – post disclosure page

Raise your hand if you are NOT prepared to say goodbye to falloween season! But alas, halloween is over so let’s start the winter/holiday nail polish season with ILNP newest release, Reflections Volume 2.

The Reflections Volume 2 collection features 6 new reflective flakie nail polishes. These are reflective like metal, not reflective glitter. Part 1 to this release originally came out in 2020.

This release goes live November 6th on the ILNP website, Amazon and Etsy pages. As links and sale information will be at the end of the post. If you would like to see these in natural lighting, make sure to check out my live swatch video on YouTube!

ILNP is a US based boutique brand. Their polishes are in 12ml bottles, 7 free, cruelty free and vegan.

All of my swatches for this release are in 2 coats plus glossy top coat. These are all 2-3 coats for full opacity depending on your own personal preference, application style and/or nail length.

Cold Press

Foundry

Meltdown

Description: a deep wine Ultra MetallicĀ® illuminated by highly reflective silver pigment.Ā 

Mercury

Description: a charcoal silver Ultra MetallicĀ® with a rich, cool-toned finish.

Molten

Description: a burnt copper-orange Ultra MetallicĀ® with an intensely reflective finish.

Undercurrent

Description: Ā a sapphire blue Ultra MetallicĀ® with a cool, steel-blue gleam.Ā 

Final Thoughts

As someone who is not in fact a metallic finish lover, this release wasn’t really my cup of tea. I knew that I would be able to appreciate the grey, blue and brown toned shades but at the end of the day, metallics and me don’t usually mesh.

That being said these all had great formulas and I was really happy with coverage in 2 coats across the board. I probably would have liked these a bit more if there had been just a dash of holographic added to them.

If you twisted my arm I would say Undercurrent was my favorite.
