ILLAMASQUA SKIN BASE



Im always pretty hesitant to try out foundations. With the worlds most sensitive skin, thats also pretty prone to rashes, I usually stick to what I know. My skin tone & texture changes quite a lot too so finding foundations that work for me is tbh, a ball ache.

I've had my eye on a few foundations over the last few months including Charlotte Tilbury Magic Foundation, Dior Star Fluid Foundation and todays topic, Illamasqua Skin Base. All 3 had positive feedback from friends and raving reviews from beauty bloggers, but after walking through Selfridges and having the warmest welcome from the team at Illamasqua - thats where I decided to spend some money.

I find the coverage of Illamasqua Skin Base great, but it doesn't last very well without a primer or a setting powder. For that I use the Nars Pro Prime & Nars Light Reflecting Setting Powder. I often get an oily T-Zone but this combo works great for me. The coverage is wonderful, medium but build-able with a flawless finish. The foundation itself is smooth and lightweight so it blends seamlessly across the skin. I also need to add that I have never found a foundation to match my skin tone as well as this one has. Im not particularly dark, but I am mixed race so my undertone is slightly yellow and I find a lot of foundations (especially drugstore, shade intended) have pink or orange undertones which is a big fat NO from me. On a whole, a lot of foundations just don't match to my skin so having an easy experience with this one was a pleasant surprise. For a day to day, no fuss face this is the foundation I go for! It looks fresh, dewy & natural - perfect!

    1. Hi,
      My name is Sarah Anik, some months ago I had s*x with the third guy in my life whom i was about to marry and now I have herpes. I couldn’t believe it because he wasn’t a random guy, he’s the closet guy I’ve had as a boyfriend, but it has been a never ending nightmare since. I’ve always believed in GOD and have asked him for forgiveness which is ironic.
      I felt like killing myself with the taught of having a husband and family will be quite difficult and i felt like I’m not really in the room when people are talking. I didn’t know what to do and pretty much cry and pray every day to God for help and looking at my family with so much love and feeling that i have disappointed them even though they don’t know. Until God lead me to DR. SOLUTION online who promised to help me cure my disease through herbals. At first i didn't believe him, but to my greatest surprise i was cured completely by herbals, which medical doctor also verified that i was cured. Special thanks to DR. SOLUTION.
      Don't be discourage because he that did it for me will also do it for you and you can contact him through his email address solutionhealinghome@gmail.com or text him on what'sapp, phone number +2348077683109 or visit his website www.healinghome.webs.com for more information.

  2. Illamasqua are one of my favourite EVER brands, their lip products are second to none!
    I've tried their skinbase and although I like it, I love their rich liquid more - it is very thick though, if you're into full coverage it's worth a go.
    Skinbase looks perfect on you!

  7. I am here to give testimony of how i got back my husband, we got married for over 9 years and we had two kids. thing were going well with us and we where always happy. until one day my husband started to behave in a way i could not understand, i was very confused by the way he treated me and the kids. later that month he did not come back home again and he called me that he want a divorce, i asked him what have i done wrong to deserve this from him, all he was saying is that he want a divorce that he hate me and do not want to see me again in his life, i was mad and also frustrated do not know what to do,i was sick for more than 2 weeks because of the divorce. i love him so much he was everything to me without him my life is incomplete. i told my sister and she told me to contact a spell caster, i never believe in all this spell casting of a thing. i just want to try if something will come out of it. i contacted traditional spell hospital for the return of my husband to me, they told me that my husband have been taken by another woman, that she cast a spell on him that is why he hate me and also want us to divorce. then they told me that they have to cast a spell on him that will make him return to me and the kids, they casted the spell and after 1 week my husband called me and he told me that i should forgive him, he started to apologize on phone and said that he still live me that he did not know what happen to him that he left me. it was the spell that he casted on him that make him come back to me. my family and i are now happy again. Thank you Dr. Aluta for what you have done for me i would have been nothing today if not for your great spell. i want you my friends who are passing through all this kind of love problem of getting back their husband, wife , or ex boyfriend and girlfriend to contact traditionalspellhospital@gmail.com and you will see that your problem will be solved without any delay. He cast spells for different purposes

  9. Doctor Wakina through his love temple email address; dr.wakinalovetemple@gmail.com made this mouth-watering testimony possible after three nights of spell work done on my husband. Even when I thought all hope was lost, Dr. Wakina encouraged me to hold onto my faith until the nights are over. Through the three nights, I experienced heavy spiritual powers inside of me, I felt that something is seriously happening to my emotions and lifestyle, it was an awesome experience that have changed my life for good and brought back my husband who left us for one/half years.
    I was always being intimidated by the girls he brought home then, the last incident I could remember was when his most liked girlfriend arrived back from holiday, and he ran very early to see her, closed his office and didn’t even care to tell me he won’t be coming back again. I thought he was lost or kidnapped until when I saw several pictures he posted on facebook with her. I felt very heavy and sad inside my heart until I met Dr. Wakina when all efforts and hope was lost, he changed my husband and my husband has totally forgotten about the girl and others too. I don’t know how Dr. Wakina got such talent and I envy him.
    I recommended four of my friends to Doc after my husband came back, surprisingly, he helped three of them, we are all smiling today because Dr. Wakina helped us achieve our dreams via his email; dr.wakinalovetemple@gmail.com. Peace and Love. - Anna Hector
