Inglot Cosmetics Rainbow eyeshadows

w00t! Received my order from Inglot today; 10 Rainbow eyeshadows!









These were a little difficult to swatch simple because 3 shades in each pan doesn't leave much room for a brush. I heard elsewhere that the shades in each pan were different finishes, but they all seemed pretty matte to me. A few shades had a bit of frost to them, but by no means are they really that different. I think these are fun & a good way to add to your colour range. For me, I find having lots of colours in similar tones beneficial for blending & transitioning.

I'm pretty excited to use these! I'll have some looks with these coming up in the next few days :D!

Inglot Matte Eyeshadow Swatches!

Eeeek! Sorry I haven't posted in two weeks! Life has been so hectic for me as of late; working tons & trying to figure out some future plans! But, I received my Inglot order today & really wanted to share it with you all!

If you may have heard recently, Inglot released their entire line of matte eyeshadows for the Freedom System. As soon as I read about it, I hopped on the website & ordered 15 shadows. I'm a really big fan of their mattes; they have a matte look but a creamy consistency. 










Not sure why the photos look so weird, but they're pretty large, so click 'em for better detail ;D

I'll post some new looks soon (yay, day off tomorrow!) and another contest within the next week or so!

You mean....I have MORE Inglot to share?!


Yes....yes I do :P This was my haul from last week, but I felt like I was posting SO much Inglot, that I took a little break from doing so. This is probably going to be my last haul for a while (hahah, yeah...right!) so I wanted to get these pics/swatches up before I forgot about them!


With this order, I purchased a blush, eyeliners & of course, freedom shadows. The liners were really nice & I look forward to getting more! I'll review them as I post them :)






I. LOVE. THIS. BLUSH.
So, in my previous posts with Inglot & their blushes, my complaint was their glitter content. While the blushes had nice colour...that glitter fall-out was just annoying & has lead me to stop using their blushes. Bummer. But I took a chance & got a blush that wasn't available in the freedom system. HOLY. I love it! This blush comes out PERFECTLY on my skin...it gives me that glow-y look that everyone else was able to find with other products that never worked for me! Well, I've found it & I am stocking up big time!



 Full Metal Liner ($12.00) #526. These are similar to the MAC Technakohl liners, but I feel they're much creamier than MAC's. Their colour range is small compared to their other liners, but still nice enough where I want to get a few more. I liked the way these applied, but I felt like I needed a couple swipes to build colour.


 Soft Precision Liner ($9.00) #43. These are most comparable to MAC's eye kohls. I LOVE the colour range they have with these. The liners apply softly & opaquely and are in general, a really nice, basic liner. These are their cheaper liners, but rock with quality!











Okay, Reen....NO MORE PURPLES! Hahah! After I received this order, I re-organized all my palettes, because I am a freak like that. So now everything is in coloured order ;D I am definitely on a mission to own all their freedom shadows & am PRAYING that they open up a store in Chicago.


I'm also super excited to share that the photos I did for Sugarpill Cosmetics are being added to the site! Here's Dollipop! EEEEE, so excited about this! I'm also working on a couple other things for them as well & am seriously just beyond flattered & excited to be a part of their awesome cosmetics!

With that said, the next 100-follower-giveaway will include TWO winners. I was sent some extra goodies from Sugarpill that I want to use as prizes & I think they would fit in perfectly with everything, including a huge review/swatch post! Excited!

Anyways! I will have some looks to post for you soon. Happy Good Friday to everyone & Happy Easter as well :D I don't celebrate holidays, but I hope you all have a great time with your families!

Latest Inglot haul ;D Pics + swatches!

I know, I know...I am flat out obsessed with Inglot Cosmetics. I received my recent haul today & purchased some of the other items they offer. Don't get me wrong, the Freedom system is amazing, so affordable & really nice for those who like to custom order their palettes. I just wanted to try some of their other products to see if they're worth branching out for.

First, their lipstick. I only purchased one shade because I wanted to see just how accurate their online swatches are. I purchased #414, a matte lipstick that looked like a soft baby pink on the website. While the lipstick is pretty matte (I would compare it to a MAC satin lipstick) the colour was just awful. In the tube it looks pretty nice, but on my lips....YUUUUCK. It came out as a powdery-white lilac that was not flattering on me in the least. It was pretty difficult to photograph it on my lips, so I will try again when I'm able to take pictures in natural light. I do want to try their cream lipsticks, though, in hopes that I won't be so disappointed.







Next up, their pigments. These are listed on their website as AMC Pure Pigment Eyeshadow, AMC standing for 'Advanced Makeup Components' which I am still researching further into. These are 2 g/0.07 ounces for $14.00 USD. Old MAC pigments are 7.5 g/.26 ounces & new MAC pigments are 4.5g/0.15 ounces...so when you calculate it out, Inglots pigments are rather pricey.




MMMMM. These are so fluffy! Hahah, fluffy, easy to apply & SO vibrant! These are each two swipes of pigment over NYX Milk eye pencil. That blue...wow. I'm working on Inglot dupes next & I'm pretty sure if you've been searching for MAC RebelRock Blue, you've found your match!

I also purchased some eyeshadows that aren't available in the Freedom system. These were $12 USD a piece & are 2.5 g/ 0.09 ounces. MAC regular eyeshadows are 1.5 g/0.05 ounces, MAC mineralized eyeshadows are 2.2 g/0.07 ounces & the MAC Mega Metal eyeshadows are 3.4 g/0.11 ounces. Inglot's full sized eyeshadow are an awesome deal when you calculate out the difference. I've noticed on the website, though, that not all the Freedom colours are listed as full eyeshadows. I sifted through the full sized shadows & chose a few that aren't available through the Freedom system.







I also ordered a full AMC eyeshadow without realizing I already owned it :P Woops! Eyeshadow is #59, I didn't swatch it because I already have before.



& Of course, I ordered more Freedom shadows as well as a 5 pan. :D



We all know I love these by now, no review necessary, hahah!

I hope you enjoyed this post, it took forever to photograph! I've got one more haul on it's way to me (eyeliners & of course, more Freedom goodies) and after that I will get started on a duplicates post! I'm going to go through ALL my makeup & compare as much as I can.

I'll also be doing a giveaway this Friday, so be sure to check out my blog for that! :D


K, passing out now ;D!
