In February I found a website called BeautyMart who were having a 50% sale. I quickly had a look and not really knowing what they sold, I was excited to see that they had a few natural brands on offer. ILIA was one of the brands and out of all the products available, the illuminator stood out for me. I had been using MAC Cream Colour Base in Pearl until I bought this so I was desperate for a natural alternative.
It is a cream highlighter that looks lovely on cheek bones, cupids bow, brow bone and the bridge of your nose . It is only a very faint shimmer and you might have to move your screen/head around a bit to see it on my hand but when it catches the light it looks gorgeous! I use this over my liquid foundation in the day for a dewy glow or at night time for an extra bit of shimmer! The stick is quite a hard texture so I use my fingers to get some of the product off the stick and dab onto my skin and blend it in, which I find gives the best finish.
The product is 85% organic and comes in gorgeous aubergine colour recyclable box and the stick is in a beautiful gunmetal grey tube which looks amazing in my make-up collection and gives it a little bit of eco-luxe!
This costs Β£30.00 however it was on offer on Beauty Mart for Β£15.00 so it was a very good price. Although it looks lovely I’m not sure I would be that impressed if I had paid the Β£30 for it and probably wouldn’t re-purchase however I’m glad I got to try it for half the usual price!
You can get it here from BeautyMart.
Have you tried anything from ILIA? What would you recommend?

Wow what a steal! Would love to see a FOTD for this. π
High five to my fellow bargain hunter! I lose hours looking for the best prices online…if time = money, I'm not so sure I'm doing things right, haha. That is a serious deal, good work! I'm really intrigued by ILIA's illuminators – I'm glad to hear you like it so much! Seems perfect for spring. π
