Illamasqua opens at Leeds Victoria Quarter!

Leeds Victoria Quarter Illamasqua Store

On Thursday evening I was invited to the Launch Party of the new Illamasqua Store in Leeds Victoria Quarter which is the perfect location as the VQ is such a beautiful setting. The decor inside the store is amazing with glittery walls and floors, gothic mirrors, neon lights and distinctive art work - unfortunately I forgot to take my camera :(

With glass of champagne in hand I was shown around the store: downstairs you will find all their makeup nicely presented so you can have a play around and upstairs you will find a make over area with booths and even a balcony. It's a shame that none of the other stores in the Victoria Quarter seem to have an upstairs area where you can look out of the balcony!  


Julian Kynaston (Illamasqua's founder) was there along with MUA Alex Box who looking very coordinated and dressed up as usual - I can't image her ever not looking glam! Had a nice catch up with the other beauty bloggers and a couple of new faces that attended and also the Illamasqua team....in fact I was the last one to leave! One of the MUA gave me a natural looking lash makeover and I was that busy chatting that I forgot to check out the Skin Base range as I missed the Skin Base launch event and have heard many raves!

Would like to thank the lovely girls at Illamasqua for organising such a fab event and such generous goody bags. I received a duo bronzer, body oil, sparkly lashes, a sample of freak perfume, and a lipgloss - which are all perfect shades for the festive season. 

The store officially opened yesterday (10th Decemeber 2011). Have you visited the Illamasqua Leeds store yet? If you are in Leeds you must visit and you can't miss it as it's opposite the Mulberry Store ;)
