Illamasqua Glamore Collection

winjaffe Mayıs 17, 2021

Today I am here with a long post for you, introducing the new Spring collection for Illamasqua 'Glamore'. This collection challenges you to 'redefine your own brand of glamorous' and 'be glamor'!

There are many perks of interning at Illamasqua and getting to see the new collections before they launch is just one! The 'Glamore' collection, bringing new textures and shades to Illamasqua, is one which I think many of you will love and is certainly one of my favourite Illamasqua collections. Aside from the girly imagery and pink theme running through the collection, the satin finish lipsticks and shattered star nail varnishes are a dream to apply and perfect to add a pop of colour and glam to your make-up/ nail art look!

Satin Finish Glamore Lipstick - Soaked, Glissade & Luster - £16.50 each

As some of you may know all previous Illamasqua lipsticks have a matte finish. Although I love a matte lippy, I was very excited when I heard the new Glamore lipsticks had a satin finish and hoped they would have the colour pay off and staying power of previous Illamasqua lipsticks I have tried. Not only do the lipsticks feel gorgeous and creamy on the lips, the shades are super vibrant and the colour is there to stay once applied.

The three shades are Luster (candy pink), Glissade (bold pink) and Soaked (vibrant orange). My favourite shade has to be Luster as it is a really girly pink with a slight neon edge. As you can see from the swatches the shades are full of colour and if a pop of colour on the lips is something you love, as I do, these are definitely for you! These lipsticks can also be applied lightly, and pressed into the lips to add a subtle wash of colour over the lips.

Shattered Star Nails - Trilliant, Marquise & Fire Rose - £15 each

Now you all know I love a nail varnish, so this collection became all the more exciting when I saw the shattered star nail varnishes. The polishes contain different sized glitter pieces, are super girly and perfect for adding a shimmer to the nails with a slight difference. They are described as being multi-dimensional and once dried the textured finish on the nails allows you to feel the glitter as opposed to the glossy finish most glitter polishes have. If the textured finish is not for you, the nail varnishes look just as great with a top coat applied on top!

The three shattered star shades are Marquise (orange), Trilliant (champagne) and Fire Rose (pink). Im finding it very hard to pick my favourite shade as they all look amazing on the nail. As with the lipsticks the shades are vibrant and two coats are more than enough to achieve an opaque wash over the nails. I cannot wait to use these in a nail art look, so keep your eyes peeled for these in a nail art look coming up soon!

The collection launches on 27th February, so not long to wait, and the products are available to purchase online and in store/ on counter. The textures of the lipsticks and nail varnishes bring something new and exciting to Illamasqua and are a must try for those old and new to Illamasqua. To finish off the post here is myself and Kirsty getting our 'Glamore' on in the photo booth at the Glamore launch, with a peek of a star nail art look I created with the shattered star nail varnishes in Trilliant and Fire Rose!
