Illamasqua launches it's Debut Fragrance FREAK

The biggest launch in Illamasqua's history, our Debut fragance Freak launches today across www.illamasqua.com, across our Selfridges counters and Flagship store!

To be the first to Freak visit http://www.illamasqua.com/shop/catalogue/category/freak-fragrance/products/freak-75ml-eau-de-parfum/355/

 

This exotic and unconventional scent is not alone...to accompany the launch of Freak, we have created a capsule collection of three Limited Edition

products, whose shades reflect the rare blooms that make up this concoction of dangerously exotic unconventional flowers.

Embracing the mysterious histories of their namesakes are hardwearing Nail Varnish in Hemlock (pale opal green iridescent), the nocturnal heart of Pure Pigment in Queen of the Night (blackened plum), and a sensual Sheer Lipgloss in Datura (neutral mauve).

The capsule collection is also included in a Limited Edition Gift set, comprising Freak, Nail Varnish in Hemlock, Pure Pigment in Queen of the Night and the exclusive Sheer Lipgloss in Datura. The gift set is available for £80, offering a saving of £21 and makes the perfect Christmas gift - or little indulgent treat for a make-up lover!

In other exciting Illamasqua news, we hosted the final stage of the Illamasqua Distinction in Make-up Artistry Awards this Saturday 15th October 2011 in the heart of our flagship store and School of Make-up Art at 20 Beak Street, London W1. 

Contestants from across the globe jetted in from America, Australia and Ireland to be a part of the finals for the first Distinction in Make-up Artistry Awards 2011 and the store was a spectacle of vivid palettes and creative techniques as each artist competed to be crowned the winner of their category. Next year promises to be even bigger and better as we continue to recognise professional artistry and creativity!

Now is your chance to celebrate the creativity of these students and vote for your winner! To vote, simply visit the Illamasqua facebook page, click through the image galleries for the three Awards categories to view each Finalist's fantasy look and "Like" the image to vote for your favourite in each category before Midnight Monday 24th October 2011 - http://www.facebook.com/illamasqua?sk=app_251098594941999

We also have a behind-the-scenes film coming very soon to Youtube.com/illamasqua ... watch this space!

Illamasqua Theatre of the Nameless Collection- A preview

Theatre of the nameless......

Illamasqua says.....

Autumn is officially upon us, so allow us to descend in to the Theatre of the Nameless and show you the must-have pieces to see you through the darkness... 

Descend into the riotous scene of erotic adventure that is THE THEATRE OF THE NAMELESS, nocturnal den of the dissident leaders of underworld subcultures. Exotic dancers rub shoulders with expressionist actors and performers; nudists and Boot Girls openly compete for the Conférencier’s eye; and all participate in the Club’s endless, pleasure-seeking rituals, immersing themselves in a heady world of sensual delight …

Teased by the sweet, pungent tang of opium, the air throbs with the electric shock of lovers’ flesh. Dare to feel the intensity of the club’s intimate caress, and abandon yourself to the glorious wonders of unfettered night-time make-up.

“Theatre Of The Nameless is a heady mixture of opulent hues, decadent pigments and fearless application. A bruised and burnished pallet that gives a sensual slip that bleeds colour into colour, worn through and kissed off “  Alex Box, Illamasqua Creative Director

Infused with the essence of self-expression that transformed 1920s Berlin, this rich and indulgent collection envelops the senses. Darkly sophisticated tones are accompanied by shocks of dazzling iridescence, creating a breathtakingly modern interpretation of the most illicit nightlife in history.

 

 Cream Pigment £17.00

 Brazen new shades – Androgen(Coral) and Depravity (Magenta) –introduce new levels of excess to this uniquely Illamasqua, intensely colour-rich and crease resistant matt formula.

Pure Pigment £15.50

 These versatile performers are there to be played with, giving a high-shine metallic finish of pure colour in shimmering Zeitgeist (Dark Shimmer), Beguile (Light Shimmer) and Berber (Auburn Shimmer). 

Precision Ink £17.00

 Our most exotically coloured Precision Ink yet, Havoc (Aubergine) lets you scrawl hidden messages across your naked flesh, to be discovered at midnight by your secret lover.

Nail Varnish £13.50

Taking a lead from the colour-coded specialities of the Wittenberg Platz’s domineering Boot Girls, Illamasqua introduces confident new shades in Taint (Stone Brown), Kink (Bottle Green), Vice (Deep Cerise), and Faux Pas (Blue Violet).

  

Shimmer Blusher £16.50 

Mirroring the glimmer of starlight that illuminates this insomniac’s lair of unending night-time pleasures, the dusting of shimmer in our new blushers, Ambition (Neutral) and Morale (Rosed Flush), adds a rich radiance to your face.

Lipgloss £13.00 

Full, glossy lips in dark, sultry Intense Lipgloss Façade (Grey Pink), Belladonna (Deep Pink) and Sheer Lipgloss Violate (Dark Green Shimmer) give you the ultimate high-shine power-pout that will stop them in their tracks at a hundred paces.

Lipstick £15.50 

Colour-intense lipstick with a highly pigmented formula in the dark, sultry and powerful shade Kontrol (Blue Violet) to give you the deep-down confidence to dominate any situation.

False Eye Lashes £16.00

 The Theatre of the Nameless brings two new lashes to our extensive handmade range of styles and colours – the fluttering, tapered extravagance of the aptly named Grandeur and the thick, long, luxurious Blackened Auburn Weimar.
