Illamasqua Kontrol Lipstick

After a whole year of fantasising about this lipstick and never being able to get it, Kontrol is finally mine! :') Every time I've gone to buy it was always conveniently out of stock, not available, the only thing left being testers. Now the quest for this lipstick is finally over!

Illamasqua Thrust Blush

On Illamasqua's official site, this blush is described as a magenta. When I saw it in store, the thing that drew me to it was the hint of purple within colour, it's almost a bright violet berry in my opinion. Though pretty scary looking in the pan, it can show up as either subtle pink colour on the cheeks or a bright magenta. I would say this blush would be more cool toned, but I am sure it could work for both undertones easily. This product would also be exceptional for darker skin tones! Warning: can look clownish if applied too heavily. I guess that is a rule with all blush, but the pigmentation in Illamasqua blushes is phenomenal!

Illamasqua Apocalips Lipstick

As promised, I present to you another Illamasqua related post, this time on the lipstick 'Apocalips'. If you saw my lost post on Illamasqua, I mentioned them to be quite an avant-garde brand of make-up. Apocalips definitely doesn't disappoint. It is a new colour from the Human Fundamentalism collection, and it's TEAL. It's completely true to it's colour, it's not an off green or a sky blue, it is a perfectly true teal with a matte finish.

Illamasqua Katie Blush

As promised, here is my first (of many) Illamasqua posts. If you haven't heard of this make-up brand, I strongly recommend taking a look at their website. They are definitely for the brave, I've been caught wearing their Discliple lipstick (a matte navy blue) in public and received many a awkward stare. This is truly a brand you have to be confident in wearing and one you have to like venturing into a more adventures style. Despite this, they do cater for more natural looks, such as this product..

This is a blush called Katie.
