October 2nd, 2010

Celebrity Makeup News and Blogs:

Learn how to easily copy the latest celebrity hairstyles for the season. When we think of updos we think of versatility — the ability to change things up (literally) in order to adapt to a situation. And the “situation” women so often deal with when it comes to their hair and hairstyles is the “no time” situation, the “bad hair day” situation and, our personal favorite, the “I need to look pulled-together despite the fact that I have no time and am having a bad hair day” situation. Updo hairstyles can deal with a multitude of hair issues and the best part is, there are plenty of cute styles to try this fall. Like we said, updos are versatile.

Illamasqua Gender Intense Lipgloss Review, Photos, Swatches

Illamasqua Gender Intense Lipgloss

Makeup That’s Just Pure FUN!

Illamasqua Gender Intense Lipgloss (£12.50 for 0.2 fl. oz.) is not a wearable shade by any stretch of the imagination. This is a shade that completely embodies the word fun. It’s different; it’s unusual. It’s something to be used for that just-right-occasion, which might be Halloween for some, an avant garde photo-session with your best pals, or lightly patted on over your favorite lipstick to give it a bluish cast.

Gender is a medium blue that leans a little teal–it’s described as a sky blue, but it definitely had this teal edge to it that made me think less sky blue. I could not smile in swatch photos – it just did not look right! I felt like it made a mockery of the shade, so “straight faced” it was.

It’s almost opaque, but it didn’t apply as evenly or as solidly as other Intense shades have in the past. I would probably lay down a concealer/foundation base (or even a blue eyeliner) and then use a lip brush to apply this–I think that would help it look more even. This is a shade that’s only available through Illamasqua; you won’t find it at your local Sephora!
