Inglot Eye Shadow Swatches, Photos & Review – Part I

Inglot Eyeshadow Inglot Eye Shadow Swatches, Photos & Review   Part I

Perhaps you have heard about Inglot Cosmetics?

This is a company that popped up on my radar a few months ago in a big way when I started seeing some amazing looking swatches from various bloggers and YouTube gurus. While they do have a HUGE (and I mean HUGE) range of nail polish colors, what really interested me most was their eyeshadow colors.

First off they have SO many and a wide variety of colors. And when I saw all the yellows and greens and purples and blues, I was done for.

I had been planning on taking a trip to Vegas this spring/summer for vacation yes, but also so I could visit their store because up until a couple weeks ago, they didn’t have an online store. But now they do, so YAHOOOOOO (or yikes)!

I was a bit overwhelmed at what to choose, but knew I wanted a variety of both bright and neutral colors and finishes.

The eye shadows come in five different finishes: matte, pearl, double sparkle, shine and AMC. They also have pigments as well.

Being the doofus that I am, I was so excited to pick out the eye shadows I wanted, I neglected to actually order the palettes I wanted! Never fear I happened to have some Zpalettes around, which are actually perfect for these because you can get 18 of them inside the large Zpalette (which is $20) rather than the Inglot square palettes which are either $20 for 10 squares or $25 for 20 squares. Since I would have needed 3 of the 10 square Inglot palettes for all the shadows I got, I wound up saving lots of money!

So today I’m going over the brighter more colorful shadows I picked up.

Sonia Kashuk Blink Of An Eye Pencil Set for Spring 2011 Swatches, Photos & Review

The fun stuff from Sonia Kashuk for spring 2011 keeps on coming!

Her new Blink Of An Eye Pencil Set comes with two fat shimmering creme shadow pencils in gold and silver, as well as a metallic eye definer pencil in a deep chocolate brown.

The fat pencils have a nice, soft easy-to-apply consistency and the brown liner, while harder, goes on fairly easily and has a gorgeous gold shimmer.

The only thing I thought when I first saw these (mainly the silver and gold) was it looked like a winter collection. Silver and gold always remind me of the holidays, but there are no rules saying you can’t wear them all spring or summer long!
