Wearing Illamasqua’s Feisty Coloring Pencil, Maneater Lipstick and Touch Intense Lipgloss
Be your own admirer.
That’s the message behind Illamasqua’s I’m the One collection, a small but eye-catching release with just one lip pencil, a lipstick, one gloss and a nail polish — but man, oh, man, are they bold! And red. Two things I can really get behind. 
Here are pics and swatches of three of the four pieces from the collection…
I’m red-y for ya! Three of four pieces from the Illamasqua I’m the One collection…
Touch Intense Lipgloss, $24
Feisty Coloring Pencil, $20
Maneater Lipstick, $26

That’s Feisty Coloring Pencil, Maneater Lipstick and Touch Intense Lipgloss on my lips; the NYX Adorable Shadow palette on my eyes; and Bobbi Brown Antigua on my cheeks.

You look amazing! That color is perfect for you.
Love the last picture Karen! I’ve tried Maneater and didn’t love it on myself, it leaned a bit orange and I prefer cooler reds. But it looks lovely on you!

Karen – you always look beautiful, but DAMN you skin with those colors looks amazing! If you are wearing MAC face and body, I need to learn your tricks! I never get it to look like that. Love the highlighting you did as well. Would love a tutorial on the entire look!

I’m loving the lipstick. The gloss looks nice, but I think Maneater is perfect on its own.

!!!! That is gorgeous.
The lip gloss looks like the PERFECT red. I might splurge. MIGHT. Just bought RiRi’s lip glass and it’s a nice subtle reddish pink.
Thanks for sharing the info. Might have to practice my red lip technique
I love the gloss, so so perfect.

Gorgeous look! Wow!!!!!!!
Wow, what foundation are you wearing? Your skin looks divine!
Hey Karen, what a beautiful red lipstick! Really interesting combo too, the purple/pink subtle smokey eye with warm red lips. It works and is stunning.
Love how your blog is so inspiring for different make up looks to try out. Especially for us ‘natural palette only’ type of girls with secret red lip obsessions.
