Load is a rich, cream coating for the nails
Scorn is a midnight matt finish deep statement of obsession.

Lipstick
Let your lips speak volumes. Indulge in Illamasqua’s colour-intense Lipstick with a highly pigmented formula. Assume the role of a femme fatale with Sangers, Illamasqua’s new blood red lipstick.
The collection isn't big, but I ADORE the promopics!
Illamasqua always knows how to inspire!
I got so inspired of the pics, that I wanted to recreate the look.
I added some of my own to the look (lips, heart shape etc), and I could have done it better, but... Well, no can do ;D
I used so many different products I'm not gonna even try to list them. :P
But on the lips there is Illamasqua Sangers lipstick (with Perform intense lipgloss):
I already had one red lipstick from Illamasqua (Faust), and it's a little bit darker red, and more colder.
Sangers is kinda like the "firetruck red". It's a bit dry (like all the other Illamasqua lipsticks I own, but easy to use and blend. And it's quite longlasting too!
And here's Throb nail varnish (with Illamasqua Boosh nail varnish):
Throb is really pretty bright redred. I own several red nail laquers, but none of them is quite like this one. I can't point what's different in the color, but there's something :D
