Go beyond the need to conform style wise, welcome bold changes into your life and let your uniqueness shine with the makeup options provided by the Illamasqua brand as inspiration for the spring/summer 2012 season.
Makeup is often seen as a vanity display and a tool , a method
to attract attention on a superficial level only. However, this
wonderful beauty tool can carry much deeper meanings than that as
the latest Illamasqua makeup
collection accurately shows. Called 'Human Fundamentalism', the
collection offers a much appreciated encouragement to let go of
social expectations and dare to express our individuality through
makeup. The brand has become known for selecting challenging
concepts and translate them into art and the latest collection is
definitely an accurate choice to highlight this eclectic and always
surprising spirit.
The rise above standards imposed by society is a definite
characteristic of the collection and, by extension, of the brand
itself. 'Breaking the mould is a sign of strength not instability',
the brand proudly states among other statements encouraging
individuality and gives some pretty striking hues to help us do so.
Here are some of the most interesting products from the
collection:
Fundamental Palette
Promoted as a 'playground of self-expression', the palette will
maximize the fun one can experience when trying to create a
seductive eye makeup. With tones like mint green, bold yellow or
rich violet in contrasting textures, the possibilities are
extremely varied and the appeal of nonconformity, even only makeup
wise reaches new heights.
Neutral Palette
Expression through color is certainly fun yet for true versatility
and maximum utility, the neutral tones in the collection are a good
choice. The creamy buttermilk, antique gold, chocolate brown or the
intense black tone can add a subtle or powerful emphasis wherever
you feel the need for contour on your face or body. Put your
creativity to test and experiment with new color accents.
For fun, show-stopping eye makeup styles in the spirit of the new
season, a few bold yet super seductive choices are sure to help you
stand out:
Powder eyeshadow in Pivot
Powder eyeshadow in Burst
Powder eyeshadow in Vernau
Powder eyeshadow in Obsidian
Precision Ink
For the final touches of a seductive look, the Precision Ink is the
perfect solution. Waterproof, long lasting and ultra thin, the
mascara is the perfect tool for your makeup experiments and why
not, adventures. Precision in application becomes a natural result
of using the fine tip.
Human Fundamentalism Nail Polish
If emphasizing your eyes and playing with bold tones seems a bit
out of your current comfort zone, a few bold, saturated nail
lacquer hues might be the next best thing. Choose between these
alluring new season tones:
Stance - Bright Mauve
Nomad - Bright Jade
The collection will officially launch on March 20 at Sephora but
for those who are anxious to get items from the new collection, the
brand is offering the possibility to pre-order from the official
website.
