Musings of a Muse

The holidays may be over by I’m still all about sparkling shades of gold. Gold really helps lighten up my eyes and takes away the attention from dark circles, fine lines, and other scary eye woe. Gold just works well throughout the seasons doesn’t it? I can’t think of a single season which gold can’t be incorporated in, can you? Summer, Spring, Fall, the Holidays…you name it and you can def get away with some gorgeous gold!

Illamasqua Precision Ink in Alchemy fits the bill for sparkling gold….

Check it!

Care to muse it with me?

Check it below!

Not loving my new shade of Illamasqua in Test as I’m not much a nude girl but I’m positive a slew of people will jump on board with this one. It’s a creamy, pink beige shade that’s completely mod chic. Loving the formula as it’s super pigmented and moisturizing.

If nude is your game this should please especially for Fall! Although I’m not too keen on this particularly shade I headed onto Sephora and ordered two more shades as I’m digging the formula. I snagged Tramp and Over. Eager to get ‘em and try out. Full review coming shortly!

Love nude shades of lippies?

What are your favs?

Tried out Illamasqua Lipstick yet?

What do you think?

An edgy, mysterious, unexpected Fall Collection from Illamasqua? Sounds about right to this Muse’s ears.

Illamasqua reports on it’s new Fall Collection entitled Dystopia on it’s official blog and things are looking interesting.
