Firstly, as much as I love this eyeshadow palette and the Inglot ‘freedom system‘, it annoys me no end that there is no mention of which shades you’ve chosen anywhere on the packaging. In the future I will definitely make a point of asking the MU Artist to jot down which colours I’ve purchased, to save me from doubling up. If you’ve not seen an Inglot stall before, there are a LOT of varying shades within the colour range, so the possibility of me forgetting what I already have and repurchasing the same eyeshadow is pretty high. Having said that, I do love the two colours that I purchased, and the service at the Inglot stall was second to none. The MU Artist that served my BFF & I was friendly, knowledgeable and not at all pushy. All of the things I admire in a good sales assistant.
Basically with the Inglot ‘freedom system’ you can mix and match whichever colours you fancy into your own palettes. I had a hankering for some purple/plum toned shades and these are the two that the MU Artist suggested would go well together. I love them. The quality of the shadows is amazing, they are smooth to apply and easy to blend and very long lasting (yes I was naughty over the weekend and didn’t remove my makeup after the wedding I attended, and the shadow was still perfectly in place the next day). They’re also quite cheap, with the 2 palette eyeshadow pans retailing for $28 AUD. I will definitely be heading back to buy more from this brand in the future. You can find your local Inglot stockist on their website.
Lovely swatches, I’m really surprised I haven’t heard of this brand before! It looks lovely 🙂
I hope you get a chance to check them out Celina, they’re my new obsession!
I do love the packaging and the formula (although I’m yet to purchase) but the numbering system annoys me too. I read somewhere that you can flick out the pans with a safety pin and the numbers are on the back? Love the colours you chose 🙂
I was considering doing that, but I am the clumsiest person alive and I just know I would somehow ruin the whole palette if I tried to do that!
Definitely interested in trying something from them. Heard a lot of great things about their eyeshadows in particular 🙂
Definitely check them out, the quality is so good for the price you pay!
It’s pretty easy to get the pans out, sometimes I accidentally pull them out with the magnet from the lid, if that makes sense. A pin or a bobby pin will get them out, they’re not very strongly magnetized. The eyeshadow numbers are also printed on the receipt, just in case you didn’t notice that 🙂 Also, in SA at least, they start an electronic file for you and record all your purchases, so you can check at the counter if you’ve already got something… don’t know if they do that everywhere though?
Also, I love these colours! That’s what I originally intended to say, lol.
Inglot is the bomb diggity – ahh if I had one closer to me I would be so so broke! Great choices you made there 🙂
