The Summer Season: Illamasqua Fume Intense Lipgloss
The Summer Season: Illamasqua Fume Intense Lipgloss
Illamasqua Intense Lipgloss Fume
($20.00 for 0.20 oz.) is a juicy, glossy cherry red. It makes your lips look like perfectly ripened, candy-apple red or luscious, summer-ripened cherries. Either way, the color and finish is pretty sexy. It’s bright, but it really is more wearable than you’d think, because it has that gloss texture. It’s very rich and opaque, and it wears about three to four hours and leaves a residual, persisting stain for a few more.
Is this the right red for you? Would you wear it?
The Summer Season is a series of posts featuring bright, vibrant shades of coral, orange, and pink lipsticks and lipglosses — all perfect for a summer of fun — that runs through July 2010.
See photos and swatches…
i don’t like the colour red.. neither on clothes, cars, food etc..
but on you this red looks amazing!
Thanks!
Where do you buy it?
Sephora
That is gorgeous! I love that it leaves a stain…
Uh, it looks so pretty and yummy on the lips ><), but I'd totally go for it if I were in a bolder mood =] Looks awesome on you anyways, 😀
Thank you!
WONDERFUL! What a great shade!
That is really pretty.
Wow this one looks really pretty on you!
this is really really nice. i can imagine it a good christmas shade too!
ooh for this topic, can I suggest the Body Shop lipgloss in the bright red color??
Hey Ace,
I am 100% full on Summer Season shades, sorry 🙁
So pretty! But apparently my Sephora doesn’t carry Illamasqua, boo 🙁 Could you take a picture of the stain it leaves?
I’ll try!
^_^ I just found a gift for my best friends birthday coming up!! *sings*
She loves wearable reds and very much obsessed with the CG lip stains and glosses in general =)
This would be PERFECT! All hail Christine! lol =p Really though, tyvm! ^_^
Yayyyyyy!
Mesmerizing. <3 I can't stop staring at the picture, lol. It's so intense but so lovely at the same time.
Like others have mentioned, this would look great during the holiday season for those who want to try a red lip. Christine, I don’t think there’s a color you can’t pull off well! = )
Yellow! Green! Browns! are all ehhh on me 😛
Beautiful !
I think most if not all of your Intense lipglosses are so pigmented and glossy ! It makes me wanna get them all 🙂
No….. I am a firm lover of a creamy red lip. Never a gloss that looks as if it would drip off of your lips. The colour is nice, but I don’t like the gloss part of it. I have tried red glosses before and they always turn messy on me.
Gorgeous shade, looks great on you. I think these are the first beauty products i’ve noticed that I don’t mind buying all shades of, even if a few are really similar or if I already own something similar. Damn Illamasqua and thier trendy, to die-for makeup.
Are you sure Illamasqua didn’t have you in mind for these gorgeous summer colors? They were made for you. Not everyone can pull off such bright, luscious colors. I am totally envious;)
Haha!
Can this color also pass for a winter/fall color? I know the colors tend to be more bold, but I tend to lean toward more lighter colors. I do love this color on you. I’m an NC35 gal and I hope it’ll good on my lips as well 🙂
Definitely!
