Illamasqua Discussion

I've started putting some swatches of their eyeshadows on my blog if that helps anyone. Looking at Sephora in their get the look section I notice they mention some different products to those shown on the actual Illamasqua site so if you want to re-create a certain look,probably best to check Illamasqua's site for products used.

You can actually purchase some items now but most say "coming soon". Hopefully, tomorrow everything will be available.

Sooo...yay we can buy now! But, oddly, I got a lot less than planned to. I just..at the last minute...decided I need to swatch lipsticks/shadows in person and lipsticks would melt in the mail (I know from previous experience)...I ended up just getting the satin primer and a luminizer. Oh and a Cargo blush.
I sure hope they have Illamasqua at a nearby Sephora sometime soon, sigh.

Both of the liquid metal eyeshadows. I sent an email to Illa and they told me that being able to depot and paletting is not something they have planned in the future although they did have that option at one of the Selfridges some time ago, but they did away with it. Oh well. I'm still going to get some other eyeshadows eventually, but those are the two I really want.

So far it has the dreaded "canada restricted" upon checkout.

Though that might mean that Illamasqua has negotiated exclusive distribution rights with someplace like Holts.

I use the eyebrow cake. Its absolutely brilliant - i love it. I've used it with sealing gel but I tend to sweat a lot so the powder itself works excellently. Especially with the Illamasqua brow brush - that blows the Mac brush right of the face of the planet.

I'm sure Sephora is sick of me, but I called to ask them if they knew what stores would carry the line and of course I was told that they have no idea yet, of course other than the one in New York that is doing the launch. Kind of hard to pick certain products off of the website swatches, so I'm hoping someone will do some nice swatches, including foundations in my color range.

Unreal.


Yeah, I had to spell it out for the person that I spoke to at Sephora, then they had to go check with a manager.

i think the first couple of stores carrying the line will probably be major metropolitan areas (with lots of tourists that don't have access to it either). so probably LA, San Francisco, New York, Miami, etc.

Yay, I put a big order on Sephora. But there are a lot of items that I really wanted that aren't available in US

. I'm thinking about just ordering off the UK website but does anyone know what the shipping cost is to US? It doesn't state it when I'm checking out and it looks like shipping in UK is about $7 so I'm worried shipping for US will be around $20.

Oh! That's what I really would like to know more about! My good friend just graduated from Make-up/Style School, she got a pro discount by Peggy Sage and I'm sure she could use the one here.. She is freelancing and also works as make-up artist with one Hairstyle Salon two days a week, so her CV is not so impressive (yet!

). Now she is away on vacation and I'd looooove to prepare this surprise for her return - to arrange everything so she'll only need a few mouse-clicks. Would you be so kind to give me some tips about what to do? I've found this professional registry on Illamasqua site, but not sure she has yet CV ready to upload... what will be the best to write there and does she stand a chance to get this pro discount? Thanks in advance! (do they have a smile of Puss in Boots from Shrek? the one with eyes nobody can resist? I'm looking with the same begging eyes now...)

And thanks a lot to everybody here - it's been a pleasure reading, although my wallet, probably, will strictly disagree...
