This is an amazing product. It uses the reflection of light to give the illusion of wide-awake eyes. Wear this alone or under a concealer. It's a creamy consistency and glides on smooth. This product retails for $19 but find it on our site for less.


Wow! What a beautiful highlighter! These colors scream vintage charm. This shimmer bloc comes from Laura Mercier's new Cinema Noir Collection that just launched in June. With it's peach, bronze, rose and cream colors, it looks great on any skin. Also, it's a duo product too. Use each one separately as an eyeshadow. Creates the perfect highlight. This product retails for $38 but find it on our site for less.



We love Illamasqua and this palette is a perfect example of why. It's colors are truly pigmented and the texture is creamy and smooth. This palette is brilliant. Create ever day looks or something dark, sparkly and dramatic. This is a must have. Love it.
This palette retails for $42.50 but find it on our site for less. Here's some swatches:





From Illamasqua's new Naked Strangers collection this lip gloss is the perfect nude rose color. The shade is Intimacy. The sheer lip glosses go on smooth and creamy. They're super glossy and make for the perfect pout. This retails for $20 but find it on our site for less.
Here's a swatch:




What a great product! Both a lip color and a cheek color in a pot. This formula is creamy and smooth. It feels like you're wearing nothing at all. It's so pigmented, it's unreal. There's 8 colors to choose from and all of them are just perfect for summer. Keep them in your purse for the beach or just every day. These retail for $20 but find them on our site for less.


This palette is highly pigmented and is metallic creams. It has 4 awesome liquid metal shades. Each Liquid Metal is amazingly rich and highly pigmented. This palette gives you dazzling, shiny looks. I love you use them as bases to really make your colors pop. The new neutral palette is perfect with this.

Palette 01 includes Liquid Metal shades in Enrapture (metallic copper), Surge (metallic steel), Phenomenon (metallic silver), and Solstice (metallic gold).

Another amazing palette from Illamasqua!  This palette is filled with highly pigmented colors for the face, body, and hair.

What a great kit for the price! Can't believe this is only $39 retail. You get a full palette that's at least worth that. These colors are truly wearable shades. Whether you're going for natural and nude or smoky and smoldering, it's all you'll need to create your look.
