Illamasqua - Perseid

To celebrate Illamasqua's fifth birthday last October, they came together with four social media guru's to create their own Illamasqua products. What amazing opportunity that would be!!

The collection is named #CREATORS and features two nail varnishes, a sheer lip gloss and an intense lip gloss.

I chose the nail varnish in Perseid created by Suzi Tse, of Style Suzi.



The product comes with a card explaining about the #CREATORS collection.

Swatches are two coats of colour with a base and top coat.







Close up of Perseid in the bottle.

Perseid is a deep purple base packed with glitter particles of all sizes, and the tiny green glitter gives it a lovely depth with the colour shift.

This is one of those colours that only really comes to life in sunlight. However, it is still a beautiful colour non the less.

The #CREATORS collection takes its inspiration from the galaxy, and I think you can see by the close up shot of the polish in the bottle they've really achieved that! It feels endless and mysterious.

Unfortunately, I found that Perseid wasn't quite as long wearing as other Illamasqua shades I've used. But I think I would wear it for an occasion so as long as I get one night of wear, it's ok :-)

All the products from the #CREATORS collection are Limited Edition, so get them while you can!

Perseid costs £14.50 from Illamasqua.com.
