The brand new Bloomingdales was the chosen destination, and I have heard it is fast reaching iconic status. Trudi [Head of Training and Professional Strategy] and Daniel [International Trainer and International Make-up Artist] have waxed lyrical about the gorgeous glossiness of this new shopping mall. The store will feature outstanding contemporary luxury brands with innovative theatre, visuals and a fabulous personal shopping concept - the perfect retail partner for Illamasqua!
I spoke to Trudi about the launch. "There has been massive hype and the expectation is incredible - people have actually booked the day off work to explore the store!" She tells me, "The specialists that Daniel came over to educate about Illamasqua were extremely enthusiastic about the brand and the colours, pigments and the story behind Illamasqua really captured their imagination. The colour palette is perfect for Dubai because of the boldness and intensity of our products."Any of the readers of the blog who live in Dubai [or those lucky enough to be travelling there for holidays] let me know what you think!
Here is a picture of Daniel with the super-glossy new Bloomingdales Beauty Hall booklet. It looks like no expense was spared in the making of this luxurious new shopping mecca if this booklet is anything to go by...
and I love that we are featured in the first double page spread...
wow..that counter looks YUMMY!!
ReplyDeleteHi, I used to live in Manchester and i was back home in Manchester for a holiday when Illamasqua opened, and i told them they needed one in Dubai!! Thank you for answering my prayers..my foundation was running out!! .. I will definately be buying alot of my make up there, so you definately have me as a customer!!

no need to travel now it is here :)
OH MY GOD! you cannot imagine my surprise when i walked into bloomingdales today and saw the ever so beautiful illamasqua counter there! I think you have chosen the PERFECT place to unveil your products for the 1st time in dubai!
ReplyDeleteI am originally from Dubai so It is such a huge relief to know that i do not need to fly all the way to london and visit selfridges in order to buy illamasqua products anymore! i was however, disappointed when the mua told me that they still do not carry the liquid foundations as it is my favourite...but i did leave my details and asked her to call me once they have them in stock. thank you thank you thank you illamasqua for the best 2010 gift ever!
ugh i find this flys in the face of your stand with SOPHIE which is all about tolerance and respect. Dubai represents none of that....Ive had friends treated so badly there because they looked different, especially women.
ReplyDeleteBut as a business i guess thats where the money is.
People must not forget Dubai is in the UAE and the UAE is a Muslim country after all. Expats who come here should respect that too. Not the other way around.
ReplyDeleteOn a positive note, I think illamasqua will help in brining out the hidden alter egos in people here and all the places they already r present and places they plan to go in the future.
Thank you illamasqua, again, for choosing to open in Dubai. you have just added one more lovely reason ppl would love to come to dubai for :)
im talking about the disgusting way people are treated who live there.The dreadful legal system that is totally corrupt..you just have to put in dubai corruption in google and youl see what i mean.
ReplyDeletethis is why i dont like the idea of Illamasqua in Dubai.or any UAE country.
You couldnt pay me to go there
Lol. First of all, UAE is the "country" and Dubai is a "city" in that country. When you want to prove a point the logical thing to do is to get your "facts" straight.
ReplyDeleteSecond of all, it doesnt take google to find out if a country's legal system is corrupt. No country is perfect and everybody knows that and u should too. If you havent noticed, we live in a REAL world, not a fantasy one. Sorry to break it to you..
Third of all, if you dont like it, dont go to Dubai. It is as simple as that my smart friend :)
With that, i would like to end this discussion from my end as i respect the fact that this blog is beauty and cosmetics related and i highly respect the people who take the time out of their busy schedules to write in it and also ppl who follow them.
Cheers!
well for me i know illamasqua is good product,if you need a make-up artist to intruduce your make-up product well i will give you a free service,,,give me a call 0506658579
