The colors are definitely electric and I enjoyed trying some of the products from the new to me brand.  All of the colors offer great pigment power. I was especially impressed with the Powder Blushers, the Lipstick, Sheer Lip Gloss and Nail Varnish.

The colors are very vivid and very true to what you see in the photos.  The brand obviously concentrates on providing pure pigments in the shades. If your look is on the bold side and you wear color, than Illamasqua is defiantly a brand you want to check out. It is a high quality brand, and overall, I am very impressed with it.
