It was an absolute pleasure to be part of Illamasqua during 3 days course in London and the result of my week in London was not only my lovely Certificate from Illamasqua(which I've gotten two of). But lovely bag with products I have bought with help of all team at Illamasqua Beak street store. Massive huge "Thank you, guys!"
I only have one regret - I did not get another cream pigment in Androgen but online Illamasqua.com it there to help ;)
Enough talking it is time to share my beauty finds:
1) First stop is an awesome primer called "Hydra Veil" - the meaning is in the name. It is wet, nourishing at keeps make up in place. What more do you need from primer? And as I know it does not run off the combination and oily skin types as well. Most of the time you get one or another.
It has no added odor which absolutely great for the sensitive skin types and the one of us who can not stand any added smell to their products.
When top lid is removed it reveals tiny spoon with the one you grab some of the product and smooth all over you face and neck. It will absorb almost immediately leaving you with non-greasy moisturized feeling on the face and perfect canvas to lay your make up on.
My colour Skin Base foundation #6. As you can see if I would blend it in on my hand you would not be able to see it.
And of course for any other skin tone lovely man (unfortunately I do not remember his name, as there were 3 man at Illamasqua Beak Store: one is our lovely teacher Ben, second one is lovely grumpy man with beard and different colour eyebrows and the third one is the one and only who convinced me to have my SB and explained how to get to Brewer Street) gave me a Skin Base Mixer in White and Amber. That would give me an expansion to my skin base palette and the ability to work with different skin tones. And considering that in my country there is not many girls with darker skin tones (unfortunately) - I should be OK and be able to match any Client.
As to give any complexion a spring warmth you need to get a Limited Edition Illamasqua Skin Base Foundation in shade: Au (as in Aurum - Gold..remember Chemistry? =)) It is an amazing way to give yourself or your Client and instant light tan. Goes amazingly for the brides who usually get spray tanned and face washes off and you need to match face with body... Almost invisible specks of gold would give great highlight as well.
Next step is a concealer Skin Base Lift - brightening concealer in colour Light 2 - it matches my skin tone immaculately.
If you are going to use cream blusher - use it now or Cream Pigment in my case in colour Hollow which can be used on your eyes, lips, face and body. As a contour, base for your eye shadows or create a lovely nude lip. Other colours presented at the store and web -site are fun and creative and has a strong staying power.
Absolute must have is a translucent Loose Powder that does not give a flash back! It is a must for wedding, photo shoots and every day use. It comes with puff and in 15g package.
If I could I would buy every single thing in the store and play with them all days long. But at the day of shopping I had to choose and decided to get myself a lovely eye colouring pencil in Navy and eye shadow in Burst to match.

Next step is a base. I have to admit that during the course I did not felt real advantage of the foundation we were using. It seamed a bit heavy to me. But funny enough it did not feel that way on a skin. So when I was doing my shopping in the end of the course I was reluctant to get one. But, boy I am so glad I did!
It does give your face an airbrushed effect and you have one long lusting perfect complection without looking or feeling heavy.
