I really couldn't wait to play with my new Illamasqua eyeshadows from yesterdays event! I did each eye differently and I love them both! These are my first shadows from Illamasqua, I know some of them are not hugely pigmented but I have found these ones fine, the only one that is not very pigmented is the matte hot pink but I think thats a good thing as it lets you build up the colour gradually.
For this one I used the silver (top left) all over the lid and under the lower lashes and then the grey (bottom right) in the crease and outer v. I patted some of the light shimmery colour (bottom left) over the top.
I wanted to challenge myself to use the hot pink so I played around with different bases and over black it looks gorgeous! I put a black base all over the lid, into the crease and under the lower lashes. Then the light shimmery colour (bottom left) on the lid and under lower lashes and the hot pink (top right) in the crease. As you can see over the black base both colours look purple, the hot pink is actually wearable for me this way! I blended it out so you can see a little bit of the pink above the crease. I would never have bought a shadow this colour so am really glad I was given this palette to try!
I am really looking forward to this collection being released, am definately going to get my pre-order in next week!
You do such beautiful eyes! Love it.
