It's time for the finale of the ILNP Heat Wave Summer 2025 collection. This is Melted, a lilac purple creme. At first, I was unsure what this color was inspired by, but it was actually related to berry gelato.

I'm continuing with the KBShimmer polishes from the Summer Collections 2015. This is Leggo My Mango and it's listed as a creamsicle orange cream. I do think mine have faded a little bit in the past decade despite being in a dark Helmer all these years.

ILNP Cream Pop
