I’ve realized that I never posted any news about the Italian brand Collistar. It is pretty famous in Europe and usually it’s not a problem to find it. I personally have a counter just near my place which I visited today. So I thought I should make posts about their Spring and Summer 2010 collections.

So what do you think about this collection? I really wanted to get something from their gorgeous holiday 2009 collection but couldn’t find it. Maybe it was sold out so fast or maybe it was available only in Italy (Pupa is an Italian brand for those who don’t know). But now there is a new Pupa counter just near my place so I won’t miss anything for sure 
I already posted a preview of this collection of Illamasqua and promised you all the details. Now you can read all the details and enjoy the beautiful promo photos! Collection will be available this Friday – 9th of April.

Introducing the first collection of make-up for the whole body from Illamasqua…
Body Electrics is inspired by the power of kinetic energy, the art of movement, the fluidity of the body in motion. The collection is an anthology of creams, powders and dry body oils infused with light, shimmer and shine, designed to highlight and contour your whole body. Containing hyper-pigmented light-reflecting particles that ignite the skin with intense colours and finishes, each product in the range has been created to accentuate the body’s every twist and turn to exquisite perfection, ensuring you exude a confidence that’s more than skin deep.
The new collection is supported by an expressive, avant-garde visual campaign shot by leading fashion image-makers Warren du Preez and Nick Thornton Jones. With stunning make-up by Alex Box, nails by Sophy Robson, and styling by Dazed’s Katie Shillingford, Illamasqua will harness the power of movement and take body make-up to a whole new level…
