My delivery arrived yesterday, packaged beautifully, and I am so so happy! Everything I got is gorgeous:
llamasqua Powder Blush in Hussy - £8.25 (Normally £16.50).
Illamasqua Powder Blush in Tremble - £8.25 (Normally £16.50).
Illamasqua Nail Varnish in Jo'Mina - £6.75 (Normally £13.50).
Hussy is described as a 'candy pink', which it is, but I would also say it has peachy tones. Tremble is described as a 'lilac pink', which I completely disagree with, as it also has peachy tones. I am slightly dissapointed in my choices as Tremble really is just a lighter version of Hussy, I'm starting to wish I'd purhcased Lover (a bright apricot) instead. However, both shades are incredibly beautiful, matte and deeply pigmented.
The blushes just wouldn't photograph well in the dull Scottish daylight, so this is the best shot I have of the colours, but this is pretty spot on!
At 4.5g, they have 1.5g less product than M.A.C blushes. However, I can't deny that the colour and pigmentation of these blushes completely blow M.A.C out of the water.
This picture still doesn't do the blushes justice! |
I hope you enjoyed this post! I'm really pleased with my purchases. Do you have any favourite products from Illamasqua, or is there anything you'd love to try? Let me know! xx
I have Hussy and I like it, it's super pigmented :) I'd recommend their cream blushes too, they're lush! Also their lipsticks have AMAZING staying power xx
ReplyDeleteIts properly lovely :) I really fancy trying their cream blushers next, I really like the look of 'Rude'. No doubt I'll move onto the lippies next :p xx
DeleteAw, I really want to try one of their blushes, but not sure if I can justify the full price. The colour of the nail polish is DIVINE. xx
ReplyDeleteI know, £16.50 does seem like a lot for such a wee blush, but they're really beautiful! I think Illamasqua do quite a few sales throughout the year though! And thank you chica, it really is stunning! :) xx
DeleteI love hussy. Lover is also really beautiful. I've just tried their cream blush in 'rude' too. Amazing. I'll do a review soon.
