Illamasqua Human Fundamentalism Collection for Spring – Summer 2012 – All Promo Photos, Information & Prices

Published on March 7, 2012 in Beauty. 6 Comments Tags: 2012 Spring Collection, 2012 Summer Collection, Illamasqua, makeup collection.

Hello ladies!

Starting from today you can pre-order the products from Illamasqua Human Fundamentalism Collection for spring – summer 2012 online @illamasqua.com. For me it’s a fact that Illamasqua has the most interesting promo photos and ad campaigns when it comes to launching a makeup collection. I just love taking my time and look closely at the promo photos and after try to get one of the makeup inspired looks I like most.

Human Fundamentalism is an explosion of your alter ego. It’s becoming who you are and not who you’re told to be. Because beauty isn’t conformity, but the fundamental human desire to express your inner self on the outside. Rise above mainstream limitations and exist in a world where individuality is received with celebration not derision, and breaking the mould is a sign of strength not instability. We stand for freedom of expression, embracing our glorious imperfections and showing the world we’re not ordinary but extraordinary, even if society refuses to accept it. We’re beyond conformity. Beyond control. Beyond hiding who we really are. We are not a religion, but the singular opposite. We are Illamasqua.

Illamasqua Individual Bronzer in Burnish – Review, Photos, Swatches

Published on September 24, 2010 in Beauty. 6 Comments Tags: bronzer, chic review, Illamasqua.

Hey girls!

I’ve got Illamasqua Individual Bronzer from Body Electrics Summer 2010 Makeup Collection a few months ago but as I said in my preview post my skin was too white at that time to use this product.

So at the end of the summer I finally gave it a try but I guess I’m still too white for the Individual Bronzer in Burnish. To be honest I never use bronzers anyway because my skin color is too pale and I prefer using a pink or peach blush from time to time.

I would definitely recommend this if you have at least a medium skin tone because otherwise the Burnish shade which is actually a golden bronze would look to dark on you. Continue reading ‘Illamasqua Individual Bronzer in Burnish – Review, Photos, Swatches’
