I can't believe Christmas is only two months away, this year has really flown in!

As usual Illamasqua have outdone themselves and given us an absolutely amazing Christmas collection.

The collection is incredibly indulgent and consists of a new eyeshadow quad, nail polish and intense lipgloss.


The Fatale Palette (£34.00) includes four beautiful shades which can be used individually or together to create the ultimate party eye. Fatale is also Illamasqua's first quad full of powder shimmer shadows:

• Bronx - Bronze Gold
• Ensnare - Sultry Berry Shimmer
• Mystify - Chesmut Brown Shimmer
• Seductive - Violet Shimmer

If you were to create a nail polish with winter in mind then Blizzard (£14.50) would be it. Illamasqua have hit the nail on the head with this polish as it accurately captures a gorgeous snow glitter effect. One coat is all you need for easy nail art for the party season. Wear alone for a subtle shimmer or over Boosh (black) nail polish to really stand out.


I love to rock a really dark, smokey eye most of the winter season so the perfect accompaniment for me is a really glossy nude lip.
Maiden Intense Lipgloss (£14.50) is possibly my favourite product from the Christmas collection as it is everything I want from a lip product. 


 If you aren't familiar with Illamasqua glosses, the first thing you notice is the smell, they have a gorgeous fruity scent, similar to Haribo sweets. It also isn't too sticky which is amazing.


Illamasqua Christmas 2013 collection will be available from November 2nd 2013 from Illamasqua stores and the Illamasqua website.
