[Review] Illamasqua Glamore Lipstick: Cherub

Previously I wasn't really aware of this brand, until my makeup teacher told us about this brand, it has a great colour pigment and the product seems awesome.

So during my Melbourne trip on my very last night, I walked around Melbourne Central area and just happily walk around Myer the cosmetics area looking for interesting thing. Suddenly I saw the Illamasqua booth! I was kinda excited, finally I see this brand! So I was walking take a look, at first nothing impress me, nothing much interesting. Until I really looked at the lipstick rack.

Illamasqua Glamore Lipstick - Cherub 

Within the first glance I took the Cherub, tried on my back of my palm, wanted to try on my lips but I was longwinded should I, shouldn't I? Because I didn't have any tissue to wipe off the top part. But then I just rubbed off the top part on back of my palm then I tried on my lips. I totally love the color, without hesitation I told the sales person I would like to get it. 

I have researched in the website too and I just realise Cherub has a warm coral and satin finish. Totally ideal for a more hydrated comfort finish.

Here's the price comparison:
Myer / David Jones AU RRP AUD30
Robinson SG RRP SGD 34
Online Illamasqua website RRP GBP 18.50

Swatch - Cherub (Warm Coral, Satin Finish) 

So here's my review:

At first I don't really like because it's kinda pinkish and I hate pink. But then, after I used it again and again, it just changed my mind, it wasn't that bad actually. Rather than pink, it's more to nude colour and give a little bit of pinkish touch on lips, looks more feminine and natural.

My lips is really unique. It won't dry without any lip balm and if I apply lip balm, it will dry so I decided not to put any. So does lipstick, my lips just doesn't work on MAC. It gave a crazy dryness until my lip skin peeled off. Illamasqua really moist my lips, feels so soft, creamy and it didn't give any crazy dryness at all. So far I haven't experience any of my lip skin peeled.

Could be used in any occasion and still looks very glam

One of the best lipstick that I've used so far!

Super highly recommend for those been looking for lipstick that won't make your lips dry like crazy, and nude pinkish feminine look :)

Rating: 5 out of 5




Illamasqua is only available in Robinson throughout Singapore. I just found out about this from the sales lady, I visited the booth in Robinson Orchard and the lady said Illamasqua is exclusively for Robinson as they are signing contract for a year and not allowed to open any counter in other place including airport :(
