I was asked about my Illamasqua lipsticks several times on Twitter so I thought, why not featuring them all together?
I have four shades and have already written about each in details, so this is more of a round-up.
Before I start, I have to say that I really like the brand’s lipsticks, they give an amazing colour pay-off and stay on really well. Since they have a matte finish, make sure that you take a good care of your lips so that the lipstick doesn’t enhance any dry patches and goes on smoothly.
Over
This coral with pink undertones, looks beautiful for Spring/Summer season. Here is how it looks like on the lips.
Immodest
It’s a part of the latest collection from Illamasqua, a full on “Barbie” pink. I personally love blotting it with my fingers, otherwise, it’s too intense for me for an everyday life. See it applied, gorgeous, right?
Atomic
Is one of the coolest lip colours that I own, it’s a fuchsia with a violet sheen. Very unique and looks uber hot with minimum eye makeup and a blusher with the same tone. Here is is on myself.
Kontrol
Unfortunately, I am not brave enough to wear such shade outside, but maybe you are. However, I really like the texture and finish of this lipstick and how it looks like applied.
You really have only 4 of their lipsticks in your collection? 🙂
The last shade I purchased is ESP 🙂
I have less than 10 lipsticks in my personal collection, as I don’t wear lipsticks that often. I keep them mostly for makeup jobs.
I know what you mean about being brave! I got one of their green lipsticks, Apocalips, and actually wore it to work (granted I work in a very small office!), but it was a much-blotted effort! I do love wild colours on the eyes and especially the nails, but sometimes it’s even difficult to wear a nice red lipstick. I love the fact that some amazing colours are out there, even if we only use them in private or in our imagination.
Oh wow, that’s awesome Andrea!
These look fierce! My favourite is Atomic.
Atomic is gorgeous!
