Illamasqua Intense Lipgloss Galactic

Here are my swatches of Illamasqua's Intense Lipgloss in the colour Galactic from the brilliant Dystopia Collection. I personally think it is an amazing product, especially for the professional make-up artists out there. I assume that the colour pay-off and overall finish is similar to the Liquid Metal in Phenomena that came with the collection as well. The ligloss is a bit tacky as one would expect from a lip product but it is not as sticky as the Lipglasses by M.A.C., for instance. If it wouldn't be tacky at all, it could be used as versatile as the Illuminators (that come in the same packaging, by the way) or probably even the Liquid Metals to create special effects on eyes, cheeks or other body areas. When you take it off without make-up remover, it leaves the most amazing sparkle on your skin that stays perfectly in place because of its stiff consistency.



I wouldn't necessarily recommend this product for the average make-up lover who is more into wearable looks, but people that love to play with make-up and face paint and professional make-up artists will love Galactic.
