Inglot Cream Blush #94 Review

I wanted to try one of Inglot's cream blushes for the longest time.  Sadly, when I went into the store this was almost the only shade left.  I thought it was so bland at first, but it turned out to be one of my favourite blush shades- really neutral, and not "blushy"..... this, I love.

It's really, really pigmented, but blends very nicely.  I haven't found a perfect brush for it yet- the pot is so small, like about the size of an eyeliner, so I just use the Trish McEvoy #66, a synthetic cream blender that I think is supposed to be for eyeshadow, but it fits in the pot.  To blend it out I use a synthetic MAC brush or sometimes, my fingers (gasp!).  Since it's kind of impossible to tell what it looks like from the swatch, here it is on my face: 

Inglot Cream Concealer #34 Review

I'm going to try another concealer review... I'm not sure if I'll do many more of these though.

This one is really lightweight with light coverage. It feels a bit powdery once it's on, but I've worn a couple layers without it looking cakey.

No Concealer 

Inglot Cream Concealer 

I can definitely see a difference when I use this.... and I really love the thin, lightweight texture for under the eyes.  However, this doesn't cover spots or anything, so I'd use something with fuller coverage for that.  

Inglot Freedom Lipsticks Swatches

I've been meaning to post about these for a long time....I've got a lot of posts to do to wrap up 2013!!! I actually bought these before I bought the Sleek lip palettes. These are all really amazing.... Definitely bright though! The pigmentation is intense, and they all leave stains too. The two pinks have a little softer texture. I can't really say I can pull any of these off (bright and shiny!), but I haven't found anything to mix or layer them with either. They had yellow, green, and blue also, so I think I picked the most common shades. I've worn a couple of them at home, and they didnt seem to wear off easily.

These are clockwise, L-R: 96,97,99,98.

Inglot Swatches! New Mattes: 318, 391, 340, 327, 343

I thought I was going to hyperventilate when I got my Inglot box!!  I havent ordered any makeup in forever, I forgot what that's like!  I used to order every other day lol!!

These mattes are perfect- buttery, smooth, pigmented- Inglot lovers, you know the deal.

Sorry for the bad lighting- we are having some storms here- tomorrow's swatches should be better!

My favourite of these by far is 340.  Its just a perfect dark blue- kind of denim-y.  I don't really know what I am going to do with 343 yet, since its such a bright chartreuse, but I can see it, in small quantities!  The others are definitely staples. 

Coming tomorrow: purples and greens!  

Review: Inglot Cream Lipstick 148

I bought this lipstick strictly for the colour, I wanted to try it out.  It is a very pretty pink, with a bluish tint. 

I immediately loved the colour, it was exactly what I expected.

The swatches:

I used the flash, primarily so you can see the lilac tint it has in the light:

The colour, I loved.  It was very pretty.  Unfortunately, I did not like this lipstick and I would not purchase again.  It has a really bad taste first of all.  I also did not care for the texture, I don't know if I got a bad tube, but mine was not creamy at all, in fact, it was almost grainy in texture, quite uncomfortable.  I also could not get much wear from it- about 2 1/2 hours tops, and that is with my mouth completely closed the whole time- forget about eating or drinking with this.  Or even talking on the phone lol. 

Here is how it turned out on my lips:

I got this lipstick from Inglotusa.com for $12.



On a side note, for those of you who have found out about new Inglot products, where so??  Have you seen them for sale?  The trio shadows, and even larger than 20 palettes?  I am very curious about these!!  

Inglot Eyeshadow Swatches: Highlights

For some reason I did not order that many highlighting shades on my first Inglot order, and I am still going through my last one, so these are all I have for now. 

From L to R:  08 Shine, 412 Pearl, 399 Pearl

(With Flash)

I was very disappointed in 08 Shine.  It applied all patchy and was just too sparkley, it was a real mess on my eye.  I've used it 4-5 times and it still did not give me the results I wanted.  I think I will try it wet, maybe that will solve the issues but using it dry it just did not work out for me. 

I really liked 412, it has just the right amount of pigmentation and finish for a highlighter. 

I know I have a MAC shade like 399, I just can't think of the name.  A little too dark for an actual highlight but I liked it above the crease. 

Although these are very similar, I still really like them both for highlighting. 

Inglot Eyeshadow Swatches: Pearls

These are just the most fantastic pearly shadows... EVER!!!  I love them all!

Inglot shadows are my favourite eyeshadows now, and in fact, I am slowly trying to rid myself of any other.  They are just so pigmented, smooth, and bleding is absolutely effortless.  The pearls have to be my second favourite, behind the mattes.  No, I think it's a tie.  Don't make me choose, damn it!  Lol.

444 is a beautiful taupe, it may lean a tad grey depending on your base, but on me it leaned more towards brown.  414 is just beyond gorgeous, and honestly, I never liked myself in dark green before I used this one!! 441 is perfect as a light purple- it's bright, light, smooth, pearly... awesome!

I have been wearing 414 every other day it seems like. 

The other day I paired this with Revlon Soft Nude lipstick and Sleek Pan Tao blush.  

More Inglot Eyeshadow Swatches

Inglot Eyeshadow Swatches: Purples

I really love these eyeshadows a lot!  I don't think I have used any other brand of eyeshadow as my lid colour since I got these.  More swatches to come! 

Inglot Brow Powder, Brow Wax, and Concealer: Quick Review

I had a really hard time getting pictures to come out right, so I am just going to post what the products look like and then give my opinions.

I ordered a round palette from Inglot, which I chose brow powders and wax, and concealers. 

Brow powders

Concealer, brow wax

I have been using these for a week or so, and I do not like them at all.  The brow powder I really dislike.  It seems like I am putting a lot of it on my brush and it doesnt last through the day.  The texture is too hard for me to work with it.  I would much rather have one of their matte eyeshadows and use that as brow powder, rather than this.  I went back to my cheapie NYX brow powder and have been happy with it. 

The brow wax is ok, I didn't really have a problem with it besides it is too dark for me, and I thought I got the lightest shade they had.  If they had a clear wax I would rather get that. 

The concealer, this is my own personal experience with it, so I am sure others might see it differently.  For me, it is way too sticky and thick.  It has the texture of a lip gloss.  I don't like it.  I had to put a lot of product onto a brush and its really so hard to blend, I wouldn't use it.  I don't like any agressive strokes on my face, I really do not, and you really have to work this concealer in for it to be effective.  Probably better applied with fingers, but I'm not going to.  That being said, it does conceal very well once you can get it blended in, but for me, it's not worth the effort because thankfully, I hardly get blemishes, I don't have any noticeable under eye problems, and I only have a couple very tiny imperfections on my face that I need to conceal. 

Overall, I am very pleased with Inglot eyeshadows but these products are not fine with me and I would not repurchase.  However, they do have an excellent colour range of these products which would be very appealing.
