Hey Everyone!
I just wanted to tell everyone that Illamasqua is now available in Melbourne, Australia! Illamasqua is known for their beautiful blushes, and pigmented shadows. The whole brand carries a dark, theatircal and mystical aura, even down to its slogan “Make-up for your alter ego”. From the website, Illamasqua states that it’s roots are from a dark 1920s club scene with a heavy emphasis on make-up for film and theater. Dramatic, emotional, dark, bold, Illamssqua emobodies all of these traits to create a very seductive and mysterious brand.
You can now find Illamasqua at Myer! Myer is the department store equivalent in Australia to Takashimaya or TANGS in Singapore or Nordstrom in the U.S. After lunch with a friend and checking out the MAC Wonderwoman collection, we stumbled upon Illamasqua. I snapped these pictures quickly with my Blackberry because I was scared that they might see me.
I have to say that they did a fabulous job with the store, even if it was supposed to be just a department store section.
It was already quite theatrical and beautifully set and laid out. Very impressed.
Evenly spaced and not too cluttered.
Beautiful backdrop!
They even had model mannequins in the back!
Now you’re probably wondering, let’s get to the nitty gritty. How much is everything?? Not to worry, Roseanne and her blackberry is here to save the day again. I took pictures of the prices, but they’re too small if I load it up here so here goes:

I would say they’re a little more expensive than MAC here is in Aussie, and for sure cheaper than NARS. Did I buy anything, nope. I haven’t had a lemming for anything Illamasqua yet!
Is it cheaper to get it here or shipped? Shipped right?
If you could, what would you get from Illamasqua?
Hope you found this post useful!
Love,
Roseanne
