In terms of charismatic megafauna, the term used to describe animals with symbolic value and appeal (think panda for WWF), the llama has been waiting in the wings for quite some time. About two years ago when I was at HyperJapan, the event that brings all things Japanese to London, every single stand was selling something or other llama (technically, they were Alpacas, but it’s the same vibe – marketing wise, the Alpaca is harder sell – no easy rhyming like llama drama, llama karma etc). I was in Oliver Bonas yesterday and faced up a llama dress and a llama shirt – basically, the llama is the new unicorn.
When you flip up the lid, obviously there is less detail and instead, workable parts for highlighting and bronzing. You can either pick out your tone or swirl together to merge the tones. If indeed you can bear to use it at all. By some miracle, Wilko has this in stock (at time of writing) for £3.50 HERE.

How cute! Not sure I’d grab is as a highlighter but my daughter would love it!

I actually really like Essence products. They look almost youthful but they work for me. I especially love their lip gloss and their quick dry nail polish. The prices allow you to try multiple things without a large investment. I secretly want to try the liquid glitter that they have (I can’t remember the name). Thanks for sharing this!
Aw, this is definitely too cute to use and yup, I think it’s about time Llama’s had their time to shine!
I think this could be a gorgeous little present to go inside a Christmas stocking for somebody and let’s face it, it’s a great price, so I’d definitely buy one to go inside my Christmas stocking too! Haha
