    The Illamasqua Skin Base foundation was something I had wanted to try out for a long time. Some years ago it received quite a bit of hype as did the brand's blushes. I think the main reason due to...

    I'm writing about Illamasqua's white skin base mixer. This is a lovely product, it's creamy and relatively densely pigmented and a nice ivory colour. As it's so pigmented, a couple drops is all...

    I like how full coverage this foundation is; I have a bit of redness on my cheeks and forehead and it covered up everything seamlessly and smoothly. I also found it not to be drying, which is a big...

    Actual rating is 3.5 stars, but I am rounding up because I love the color. I don't really love this foundation much on its own on my combo skin because it can break up quickly on oilier areas, but...

    Only used this a few times but really like it. Very easy to apply and blend, no cakeyness at all. Also, I am 61 so my skin is probably a bit dry. I applied moisturiser some hours before applying...

    I love this foundation but just wish it had slightly more coverage and staying power. The different shades are amazing, and I do think I have a great match for my skin tone (6.5) but I find myself...

    Do not get if you have sensitive skin. Low quality. Bought it as a present and looked like a fool. Cheers

    Not my HG but my first foundation purchase after switching to cruelty free (from MAC) and I like it. Needs to be paired with a different primer though, their one is crap. The coverage is great and...

    I'm slowly changing out every not-cruelty free makeup product I have, and finding a couple of first class foundations would be next in order. Try #1: Illamasqua Skin Base. It has gotten some very...

    Despite only giving one lippy. I don't hate this foundation, I just really dislike it. I didn't really like it because it dries to a very powdery finish. The packaging isn't great, it's a...

    I am so glad I decided to try this foundation again! I used it when I was 14-15 years old, and found it was bad on dry patches and separated on my oily nose (hooray for combination skin), but now...

    This foundation works well for me in heat of the summer and in bitter cold winters too, so they're right when they say it's for all skin types. There are so many shades to choose from, and there...
