Illamasqua Ore Pure Pigment ($24.00 for 0.04 oz.) is one of those products that shocks and awes the minute you swatch it. Ore is a medium-dark metallic bronze with soft red undertones, multicolored shimmer, and a dazzling sheen. It's...
Illamasqua Viridian Nail Varnish (£13.00 for 0.5 fl. oz.) is a darkened teal base with lighter teal micro-shimmer; the teal leans towards the blue side, making it a cooler-toned teal. Funny enough, when the flash fired, it...
Illamasqua Scarab Nail Varnish (£13.00 for 0.5 fl. oz.) is a fiery ruby red with copper and scarlet shimmer strewn through the color. It almost looks metallic but not quite. It's a very cool shade with depth; I envision flames...
Illamasqua Precision Ink Liquid Eyeliner (£16.50 for 0.06 oz.) is a new eyeliner launching with Illamasqua's Art of Darkness collection for fall. It's a long-wearing and waterproof liner that should dry quickly.
It may look familiar. In fact, it may look ...
Illamasqua Collide Nail Varnish ($14.00 for 0.5 fl. oz.) is a wicked neon pink cream that's opaque in just about two coats (which is what is pictured), but you could easily get away with three coats or do two thicker coats. The formula is so...
Illamasqua Lament Nail Varnish ($14.00 for 0.5 fl. oz.) is a fierce coral-orange that practically glows in the light. Even in soft, indirect light, you can see the brightness of the shade. Like Baptiste, Lament applies easily without...
Illamasqua Growl Lipstick ($22.00 for 0.14 oz.) is a deep reddened brown-wine with opaque color coverage and a low sheen. This is a shade that will last six to eight hours without much work, because it has a drier formula, it really clings to lips. I...
Illamasqua Baptiste Nail Varnish ($14.00 for 0.5 fl. oz.) is a stunning shade of shimmering royal purple with flecks of red and fuchsia-violet shimmer. It's gorgeous in the light as well as out of it; it looks inkier when in the shade, but when the light hits it, all of...
Illamasqua Gender Intense Lipgloss (£12.50 for 0.2 fl. oz.) is not a wearable shade by any stretch of the imagination. This is a shade that completely embodies the word fun. It's different; it's unusual. It's something to be used for...
Illamasqua Volt Illumine Oil (£32.00 for 100ml) is the same lovely formula as Pulse, but it gives off a very different look. This look is less sun goddess and more moon goddess--it's a mix of iridescent blue and violet and white shimmer. I think...
