Recently, I received this e-mail from Illamasqua. I've been receiving frequent updates ever since I purchased from the Illamasqua website (last year). Thought I'll just share with y'all their Top 10 CULT products.
About Illamasqua:
"Illamasqua is the product of a heady mix of influences. Its roots stem from the dark and illicit 1920s club scene, and combine a rich heritage in the manufacture of make-up for film and theatre. It also takes inspiration from members of the ‘alternative scenes’ for whom self-expression is paramount. Alternative cultures have always dared to be dramatic. They have an emotional attachment to making up. It’s an expression of their darker side, a release for their alter ego.
Illamasqua is for the bolder person hiding inside all of us. It is an act and an attitude. A symbol of tolerance. A celebration of idiosyncrasies. A confident statement of self-ownership."

Lipstick in Box (Deep scarlet red, matt finish)
"I am so ridiculously in love. I've drank tea, ate my lunch, yappered away and it's still going strong. This lipstick has some serious staying power which I am very much impressed with. It's a fabulous matte and is a lovely deep scarlet"

Liquid Metal in Surge (Molten Pewter)
"I adore this colour, it's very unique...This is an extremely creamy product which does not dry at all…paired with a green it looks like a beautiful olive-metal colour. With brown it looks more golden and with silvers, greys, and blacks…VERSATILITY."

Cream Blusher in Dixie (Warm coral pink, dewy finish)
"I love it! This could genuinely be my Holy Grail blusher! The pigment is amazing ... It blends and builds beautifully, stays in place throughout the day/night, and best of all – remains dewy on your skin! A rarity, even amongst the best of them!"

"Instead of dunking your brush in water, dunk it in this genius little bottle of gel and it turns any of your eye shadows (and let’s face it, you’ve got a lot of them) into a waterproof liquid liner. Genius. And for £10.50 for two bottles, this isn’t a want – it’s a NEED."

Pure Pigment in Ore (Rich russet bronze)
"This is one of those products that shocks and awes the minute you swatch it. Ore is a medium-dark metallic bronze with soft red undertones, multicoloured shimmer, and a dazzling sheen...so luxe and full of depth...it really needs to be seen to be believed."

Nail Varnish in Collide (Bright neon pink, satin finish)
"It's hard to capture how incredibly bright and glowing this colour is. I'd describe it as a neon pink without any blue undertones...this nail polish is hot, hot, HOT! Love it for summer. This is the third day of wear and there is very little wear and tear. Love Illamasqua polishes!"

Powder Blusher in Hussy (Bright candy pink, matt finish)
"It's a gorgeous matte coral pink that is super-pigmented. REALLY super-pigmented ... The finely milled matte powder blends seamlessly and melts into the skin. (It) looks incredibly natural and lasts all day. By far, Illamasqua Hussy is the best blush I own. Yup-I said it. Best blush ever!"

"The brush hairs are synthetic and extremely soft – softer than any other natural-haired brush I’ve owned ...This brush is the perfect size for placing a highlighter on your face, doesn’t shed, and picks up the right amount of product."

"Everything is different with this primer ... The skin looks healthy and feels moisturized. It gives the most amazing dewy finish which looks super sexy! ... This is my must have! It's the kind of product that you can’t live without once you try it."

Glint / Writhe
Soft luminous peach/golden tan
Glint / Burnish
Soft luminous peach/golden bronze
"The colours have some shimmer to them, but not in an over the top way. It makes your face gleam, rather than shine. The darker colour is perfect for contouring, it's not too shiny for it. And the lighter colour gives a beautiful glow to the face."
