Illamsqua sale haul

When Illamasqua announced a 50% off sale recently, I knew that yet again, my spending ban was going to take a beating.

I'd been lusting over the Paranormal UV polishes since the previews had been shown, so this to me was a sign. It was purchase time.

Illamasqua haul

I decided to go for Ouija (the hot pink shade) and Seance (purple). I also ordered one of the Imperfection speckled polishes in the pastel purple shade called Speckle.

I'd wanted to try an Illamasqua lipstick for ages, and following on with my love of hot pink lips, chose Euyrdice - a matte, hot pink shade.

My final purchase was one of the Gleam highlighters, in the shade Aurora. I'd heard such good things about these, and this looked like a perfect shade for my skin tone.

I have to be honest, part of me wishes now that I'd ordered some of the cream and powder blushes, but I know that I already have plenty in my collection to keep me going!

Did you order from the Illamasqua sale? I'd love to hear what you bought.

  13. I wanted to buy this highlighter so bad - I can't wait to hear your views on it (maybe I might even pay full price if it's as amazing as I think it'll be), but I just got the speckle nail polish & two foundations - one white, to mix with too dark foundations and one in 120, which is a perfect colour match for me. I'll be doing reviews on my blog soon.
