8 Of The Best Illamasqua Products

Hydra Veil Primer, £34

A backstage staple, this skin-quenching primer acts as both a hydrator and base to smooth and plump, with vitamin E and hyaluronic acid. Lightweight and fast-absorbing, it gives make-up a surface to cling to, while locking down moisture, so your foundation and concealer never cake or look flaky. After applying your moisturiser, brush on a thin layer, and skin will take on a dewy, refined glow, while pores remain visibly blurred.

Colour Veil​ Blusher, £20

Colour Veil stands out from traditional blushers. First, unlike traditional powder or cream blushers, it has a unique jelly-like texture. Second, the hydrating formula combines the intense pigment found in powder blusher with the innovative properties of Illamasqua’s Hydra Veil Primer. The formulation of Colour Veil – an industry first – offers a soft-focus, deeply-hydrating jelly with a powerful punch of buildable colour that’ll last all day.

Skin Base Foundation, £33

Weightless, yet tenacious, it’s no wonder Illamasqua’s Skin Base foundation is award-winning. The sheer formula skims the skin, rendering a clean, supple finish that hides everything, but feels like nothing. For best results, use a foundation brush, applying an even layer all over, starting from the centre of the face and blending outwards for optimum coverage.

Precision Gel Liner, £21

Jet-black, this silky formula has great slip, so it’s easy to work with. Once finished, it sets and lasts without transferring. For a softer finish, apply the liner before buffing it out with a small eyeshadow brush to create a more diffused finish.

Mascara in Raven, £20

This should be your go-to for full lashes. The vitamin E laced formula feels thick but flexible, so it adds volume, while nourishing lashes at the same time. The oversized brush is a bonus too – coating every part of your lashes, you get full results in just one swipe.

Antimatter Lipstick in Bang, From £10

Forget sheer, barely-there nudes. This Antimatter range makes the most of dark plums and bold, bronze shades to take nudes to new levels. Each shade delivers an easy-to-wear matte finish with tenacious staying power – we made it through the day with just one retouch thanks to the silky formula that looks fresh and feels smooth. The shades work on everyone, but the nude-y brown of Bang looks particularly beautiful on most skin tones.
