Beauty Not Brutality

Whilst some beauty brands say they are pioneers of cruelty free products, questions have always hung over their claims.  Illamasqua has always stood firm on core principles that define their position in the beauty industry and wider world and have gained their accreditation from PETA to prove that they are the ‘cruelty free brand’.



 With makeup brushes made out of synthetic hair, and more than 300 vegan beauty products, the entire collections can be viewed in Areej Stores throughout and in their Illamasqua boutique in Dubai Mall.

My Burberry Eau de Toilette


Kate Moss and Cara Delevingne
Great news - My Burberry Eau de Toilette, the latest chapter in the brand’s My Burberry fragrance story has finally hit our stores.  Created by Chief Creative and Chief Executive Officer Christopher Bailey, working in collaboration with perfumer Francis Kurkdjian, My Burberry Eau de Toilette for women is a fresh interpretation of the iconic Eau de Parfum.

The bright and uplifting, fragrance is as individual and elegant as its inspiration, the Burberry trench coat.

A bright grand floral, My Burberry Eau de Toilette captures the essence of a spring blossom garden, with its blend of blooming rain-tipped flowers, with sweet pea and lemon flower top notes, heart notes of peonies, peach flower and freesia followed by the rich scents of damask rose, white moss and musk.

The campaign for the fragrance was shot in London by photographer Mario Testino, under the creative direction of Christopher Bailey, British models Kate Moss and Cara Delevingne, front the new My Burberry campaign wearing only the signature Burberry trench  - the epitome of Brit-Girl chic.

Candleglow Luminizing Palette & Lip Glacés

The twinkling of candles, the romance of nightfall. This light-infused dimensional palette creates the perfect “glow” for skin at any time of day.  Two all-over-face highlighting powders create the look of skin that has been softly illuminated by candlelight, 4 eye colours give you a wash of shimmer and three luminescent Lip Glacé shades complete the look.

LAURA’S APPLICATION TECHNIQUE - For a Rosy Daytime Glow:
Eyes:
Sweep Spark all over lids up to crease with the Angled Eye Colour Brush.
Apply Glow to inner corners of eyes to brighten eyes and to look more rested.
Finish by blending Light on brow bone for extra highlighting.
For extra definition, apply Mahogany Brown Tightline Cake Eye Liner underneath the root of the upper lash lines.
Finish with Extra Lash Sculpting Mascara.

Cheeks:
Sweep Glimmer on the apples of the cheeks and to top of cheekbones with the Angled Cheek Contour Brush.

Lips:
Line lips with a neutral or nude lip liner.  Apply a nude pink lip colour such as Golden Peach Paint Wash and finish with a luminescent Lip Glacé.

Tip: When creating these romantic looks, focus “radiant” products on the high points of the face – such as your cheek bones, brow bone, bridge of the nose, and chin.  This will ensure you look radiant, not shiny or oily.

Kajal D’Orient Eye Liner
Shade: Noir Suprême

POSITIONING
Kajal as you’ve never seen before: one-stroke of carbon colour intensity with a luminous shine finish.
Create endless eye effects with the first kajal to combine colour, light and long wear. The creamy texture melts to the skin for instant impact, blends easily and evenly for a truly smoky eye. Highly adherent colour stays smooth and flexible and the easy to apply stick glides on with extreme precision. 

Creamy, intense application. The look achieved is very dramatic.  Kajal can be applied in the water line of the eye (inside the lower lashes) thanks to ingredients that are gentle on eyes.  Long lasting colour precision.

Extra Lash Sculpting Mascara

Styles and sculpts the lashes to enhance the natural contour of the lashes with mega build structure. Delivers immediate building and volumizing action. The combination of the uniquely molded brush and easy-glide texture gives you extra lashes with instant shape. Clump-free with no un-even build-up. So brush it on and see a-lot-a-lash!
