There were spooky goings-on this morning at the Church of St Barnabus Chapel in London’s Soho as Illamasqua’s Artistic Director and make-up artist Alex Box showed off the brand’s new collection, aptly titled The Art of Darkness. From the altar (and decked out in a fabulously decadent gold headpiece) she worked her magic on a model, making her up to look like a creature of the night, shimmering and glinting in gold metallic pigments and pearl highlights. Two of our standout favourite products include the Precision Liner in Alchemy, £16.50 a brighter than bright gold liner that doesn’t budge and the Intense Lipgloss in Hermetic, £12.50 a dense ruby red lacquer that’s perfect for the new season’s dark lip trend. I say Allelujah to that.
