Illamasqua Lipstick: Birthday discount well spent!

20 July 2015

Hi guys, hope you are well? I've got an exciting lipstick to share with you all today. This beauty from Illamasqua. *heart eye emoji* 




In a recent Tanya Burr video, the Khloe Kardashion inspired makeup look one I believe? I will link it here.. > https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eoW5bx82OCQ  - she used the gorgeous Illamasqua lipstick in the colour 'Rosepout'. I was in love with the colour and it went straight onto my beauty must have's. As some of you know, it was my birthday a few weeks ago and as a special birthday treat illamasqua give you a little something special with a 15% discount code unique to you. As you can imagine, I was VERY excited about this, and got onto ordering the lipstick straight away! 




I was really impressed with the speed of the delivery, as it was with me the next day! I ordered it at around 10am and it arrived on my doorstep the very next day - and delivery was free! (if you're a shopping fanatic like myself, you will know how amazing next day delivery is.. and for free!!) I absolutely loved the packaging, and was so excited to open up my little black box! The lipstick was placed inside on a bed of black tissue paper and the beautiful gold lining around the box made me excited to open something shining back at me. 

Inside was my brand new lipstick.. eek!






Isn't it pretty?! 
I ordered the satin finish lipstick in the colour Rosepout. The colour is gorgeous, I find you can never have too many nudes, AND you can never go wrong with a nude lip. I like to pair this with a simple lip liner in a similar colour to define my lips a little bit more. Another trick I've learnt is to make the lipstick go on a bit smoother use a little bit of vaseline to coat the lips beforehand. 

This lipstick is a little pricier than the average drug store lippy, at £19.50 (15% off if your birthday is coming up) but it is a lovely product and you can definitely feel the difference in quality, as you've paid that bit extra. 

Illamasqua is a makeup brand which I knew off but have never had any of there products before - but since having a browse on the website, it's safe to say I will be returning to purchase a few cheeky bits. They have gorgeous shades of lipsticks, and I've got my eye on there metallic eye shadow pots *heart eyes, heart eyes, heart eyes*

Love, H x
