The unique formula is a cream in the pot.  In addition, the formula is a shimmery paste. Although, there is no need to use a glue base because it automatically sticks to your eyes. However, once the formula touches your skin, it slowly transforms into a long wearing powder.  Furthermore, the formula includes lots of pigments. Finally, you can use the chrome pots for both eyes and lips!

The unique . marbled highlighter starts off as a liquid.  Next, the liquid ingredients go through a baking process to make the powder highlighter..  As a result, the marbled-powder  becomes a unique highlighter.  It creates a warm glow.  Also, if you want a more intense look, apply Beyond Powder Wet. Moreover, you can use it on your body for a natural-looking bronze look.  Also, dampen your eyeshadow brush and use it as a metallic, high-shine eyeshadow.

Then,  the Nude  Beyond Powders come in two shades, Risque, and Dare.

RISQUE IS A MARBLED HIGHLIGHTING POWDER

I purchased Risque.  The reason is, Risque is marbled.  As a result there are several colors that marble together to create Risque.

To begin with, Vivacity is a burgundy shade that has a shimmery metallic finish.  I love this shade on the lids, in the crease to add definition, and used to line your lower lash line.  Also, use it in your inner corners.  I also like it as an eyelid shade.

Second, Bold is a Pop Pink shade with a shimmery metallic finish.  I love this shade over the crease, on the outer corners of the eyes, as an eyelid shade, or use it to line . your lower lash lines.

Third, District, a mauve shimmer, has a shimmery metallic finish.  Again, this shade looks great in the crease, as a transition shade, on your outer eyelids, and on the outer corners of your eyes.  Also, use it to line your lower lash lines.

Illamasqua Nude Collection Last But Not Least……..

There are Many Nude Palettes On the Market

I’ve been a huge Illamasqua fan for years!  Their formulas are vegan and cruelty free.  Moreover, this Indie Brand from London is an innovative, high quality brand.  Also, I love that the brand is a little edgier than some of the other high quality brands. First, I love that Illamasqua is a brand that is willing to take risks.  As a result, when Illamasqua does a #Revolutionary Nude Collection, you better believe it will be more avant guard, edgy and, of course, revolutionary.

I have a lot of new nude palettes.  For example, Natasha’s New Biba Palette is a gorgeous, all matte, nude palette.  Also, Kevyn Aucoin’s Nude Pop is a colorful nude palette.  Moreover, even Huda Beauty’s New Nude Palette has a lot going for it.  Additionally, the newest Urban Decay Naked Reloaded palette, a remake of their original nude palette, Naked, is another nude palette with revamped, new nude shades.

There is Something Special about the Illamasqua Nude Collection

However, there is something special about the Illamasqua Palette.  Maybe it is the way they put the metallics in one row, and the mattes in the other row?  Also, could it be the way the palette was curated?

In addition, just for a second, think about the lipstick shades in the nude collection.  A few of them are really not nudes at all!  Or, are they revolutionary new nudes?  One last thing, maybe Illamasqua is teaching us there is more to nude than a plain old nude shade!

A pop of Fuchsia,  or a pop of Deep Red?  Although, at the other end of their lipstick spectrum, there is a beautiful bright nude pink shade!! There are so many choices today.  I think what I love most about the Illamasqua Collection is they want you to be Revolutionary.  In other words, they want you to think outside of your box.  Add a pop of color.  Take more risks.  Makeup should be fun.  Don’t take nudes so seriously.  Mix textures, and colors that you wouldn’t ordinarily use with nudes.

Finally…….
