If you're familiar with MAC lipsticks, I'd say the Illamasqua satin formula is a cross between MAC Amplifieds and Satins - they're pigmented like the Amplifieds, but creamier than the Satins. For me they last about 4 hours of normal wear (i.e. through coffee and lunch) when they need to be reapplied.
The colours are:
Soaked - vibrant orange
Glissade - deep berry pink
Luster - candy pink
My favourite shade is Luster (surprise, surprise), coz you know, I'm just a pink lover at heart. But I can also see myself getting a lot of wear out of Glissade now that the weather is cooling down here in OZ. Soaked is a vibrant summer shade, so I'll probably put this away for now until the weather warms up again.
You can get Illamasqua at Myer stores for $25AUD or online through their website which has international delivery.
What's your favourite shade? Have you tried Illamasqua lipsticks before?

Hehe yes it is isn't it? I'm too predictable. :)
DeleteI love Glissade! They're actually not that inexpensive for a high end brand but the quality seems amazing! xxx

No I agree, $25 is a great price considering some of the "drugstore" brands at priceline cost more than that.
DeleteInternational shipping?! Then Luster will be mine :)
ReplyDeleteIt's definitely the type of shade you'll love. I've been wearing mine non stop for the past week. xx
DeleteGlissade is a lovely shade and for me it's all weather color. As it's warm almost throughout the year where I stay, half of my stuff would remain unused if I go by weather to wear certain shades!
ReplyDeleteI love Glissade!
ReplyDeleteI love Soaked.. They are such a good price, I will have to check Illamasqua
