Pick Up: Inglot Goodies

I was in New York this weekend with my cousin Christina and friend Jessica, and when we went to Macy's, the first thing I saw was the Inglot stand! I had heard rave reviews about the Polish makeup brand from different gurus on Youtube and the blog Temptalia. Without hesitation, I picked up 3 eyeshadows and 1 blush in a custom palette (this is known as the Freedom System)




The palette has a magnetized lid and slots for the products. You can stick palettes together because they are magnetized!

452 is rich maroon-y, purple-y brown colour (I think its similar to the L'Oreal Infallible Eye Shadow in Smoldering Plum, but I haven't swatched it in person). 402 is an extremely metallic, greyish-taupe that is sort of like Tapestry Taupe from Covergirl, but more pigmented and metallic (for the record, I absolutely love Tapestry Taupe). 418 is a beautiful deep emerald green that is going to be a staple in my fall makeup bag (I also think this is similar to the L'Oreal Infallible Eye Shadow in Golden Emerald, but again, I haven't swatched it in person).

 The blush is a gorgeous peachy-pink colour, which works really well with my light skin tone. When I first saw it in the store, I thought it looked a lot like Nars' Orgasm (another beauty favourite, but something I don't own due to a)the price and b)the nature of its name- because I don't think my parents would be happy if I brought home a blush called Orgasm). After looking at swatches of the two, I do think they are very similar. The problem I faced when writing this post with this blush is that I threw out the wrapper that had the # of the blush on it. I've done some research, and I figured that by swatches it was 32. Unfortunately, the Inglot website does not show 32, so you would have to go into a store and swatch the blush for yourself.

These products are EXTREMELY pigmented. I wasn’t surprised (because of how much love these products receive from the beauty community) and the colours turned out exactly as I wanted them too.

The texture of products was buttery and smooth, and when I applied 402 to my eyes today, it blended like a dream. I can't wait to try the other eyeshadows and the blush!

In total, the palette cost $39.
