Illamasqua Magnetism Lipstick & New Tattoo

This is their Magnetism lipstick, which is an intense deep raspberry pink. It's not a colour I would usually go for, but I actually really like it... I guess that's the whole point of Illamasqua! The formula is really moisturising and easy to wear which is perfect for a bright lipstick. I also really like the sleek, black packaging.
