Illamasqua Intense Lipgloss swatches

I love, love, LOVE these. I am basically trying to catch them all ala Pokemon. I'll probably do a longer review of them when i can, but here's a super quick one.
These are just amazing colours, and the most opaque lipglosses i have ever tried. They're a bit sticky, but not overly so in my opinion, they make my lips feel a bit silky. They stay on longer than any other gloss i've tried, but still wear off much quicker than a lipstick, to make them last longer you can layer them over a matching lip pencil. The smell absolutely amazing, like a fruity sherbet. You can sheer them out easily if you want. Perfect glosses in my opinion.

Mistress


Torrid


Temper


Move


Indulge


Gender


Galactic


Fury


Follow


Fierce


Besotted


Petulant


And to give you an idea of what they looked like sheered out, here is petulant applied very thinly.


Fume

Perform


Frenzy

  4. I've nominated you for an award on my blog!

    I think they're all beautiful, but Mistress is gorgeous- it looks lovely. And I really like bold colours so I'm surprised that it's the one that jumped out at me...

    Jody Pham:
    it really is, it's so unique and gorgeous. But i haven't actually worn it outside my house yet :/ i need to figure out a good look to go with it.

    Luna Soeth:
    There are so many more i want :P
    And no problem, i hope they could help!

    Heather:
    It's pretty spectacular!

    RaeRae:
    Thank you for the award! <3 you're so sweet. Will pop it on my blog asap :)
    Mistress is really pretty, but actually this isn't the best photo of it, it usually looks a lot brighter.

    Bicky:
    Hmm that is odd about Gender! Maybe it's just the lighting, though it looks pretty true to life to me. And you should get Galactic, you can sheer it down and pop it over any lipstick too.

    sequelofdecay :
    Hmm! You could always order it from the Illamasqua site itself, though the shipping would probably be more pricey. I don't think it's been discontinued or anything so it's probably just out of stock :)

    Sera:
    It's amazing, i couldn't imagine such an amazing silver product! There is indeed a matching lipstick, it's called Vengeance and there's a gold one too called Trash :)
    At least the lipgloss will be all the sweeter when you can afford it :D

    Hendrix:
    It's the most spectacular lipgloss ever :P

    Emma:
    Aww i hope my swatches can help. They really are the best lipgloss i've tried.

  11. There's so many colors I like and would wear-pretties!
    Gender and Galactic are awesome, they really stand out. I like seeing unusual colors that are also high quality. I've been really curious about these glosses but I think they may be too pricey for me. I might get myself one next time I want to treat myself with something special though ;D Thanks for going through the trouble of swatching all of them and posting this.
