Illamasqua to launch Extinct collection for Fall/Winter 2016

Illamasqua is set to launch its new collection, named Extinct, which will be available from tomorrow at Selfridges, and elsewhere from September 1st. The collection, which is inspired by the ideals of sustainability and a greener environment, is announced as a call against monocultures and conformity.

Complete with a slogan “Inspired by nature, destroyed by society,” the collection puts all emphasis on bold, quite unique shapes and colors for eyes, lips, and nails.

The central piece of the Illamasqua Extinct Collection is Illamasqua Demise Palette, which is an eyeshadow quad of universally flattering powder eyeshadows. In the spirit of the collection, Illamasqua has brought back the extinct Illamasqua eyeshadow named Gimp, a deep blackened blue. In addition, the quad includes shades named Wilt (red gold), Lost (white gold), and Interitus (burgundy). The quad retails at £34.00.

A finely milled holographic pigment in Axolotl, holographic blue, arrives as Illamasqua Pure Pigment, priced at £17.50.

Illamasqua Precision Gel Liner is offered in a deep emerald green shade with a soft iridescent finish. The shade is named Quixotic, and it retails at £20.00.

Illamasqua Powder Eyeshadow is offered in two pigmented shades with iridescent finish: Cascade - blue/white frost, and Jubilance - pale copper. (£16.50)

The collection also includes Illamasqua Matte Lip Liquid in a dusky plum shade named Exoskeleton (£18.50), and two quirky Nail Varnishes in Remains - purple glitter, and Quagga  - duo toned green (£14.50).

Illamasqua Extinct Collection for Fall/Winter 2016 is available from August 18th 2016, at Selfridges and elsewhere from September 1st. More info at Illamasqua.com.
