TESTY: Illamasqua shadows

So here's a load of fairly random Illamasqua shadows too.




L-T, TOP: dance, gipsy, sister
BOTTON: moan and cream shadow in angel

These are really, really, crap colours. Don't get me wrong, great brand, I'm passionate about Illamasqua, but these shades are super dull. I mean honestly what do I think I'm going to do with that first blue? I wear really bright colours on a daily basis, but even I think I'd look like a tool in that blue shadow, like a smurf had done a plop on my face.

Any suggestions to make it work? Black on the edges maybe? Is it hopeless??

  1. I've bought from Illamasqua but have yet to try their shadows. I'm not a bright coloured wearing girl normally but I'm not enticed to try them looking at your swatches, you're right they look abit blah - apart from gipsy which I think could work when mixed with another colour?

  2. They do have other colours which are a bit nicer, but i don't love their shadows. Everything else is awesome though, especially the liuid metals!! :)
