Hey lovelies! Gosh I've missed you guys/gals! I know I've been MIA for so long, but guess what..I've finally bought my camera!! Yayyyy! Decided to get the Canon SD1400 IS, so far so good. I’m still playing around and learning all the features. So the plan is to now upgrade my blog, and give you guys much better quality pics, vids and reviews… so without any further ado, let me tell you about my Inglot Palette.
Much thanks to my girl Chatty Patty who gives me the hook-up every time i want a hard to get item. She recently sent me a five-pan customized palette. It’s called the Freedom System, where you purchase the palette and choose eye shadows to fill in.
First thoughts:
When i saw the palette, i thought it was sooo sexy! The packaging is sleek and everything is magnetized. The cover (which is glass) and each individual pan has a magnet, so you can change around the colours. I had to remove one of them to get the name and damaged it in the process. So it may be easy to remove but still be careful. The palette itself is a bit heavy, but i seriously don't mind that.
The eyeshadows:
Like most brands, Inglot has different textures of eyeshadows in pressed and loose. The pressed shadows I have are:
DS 474 – A shiny true yellow with gold reflects
AMC 50 – A shiny orange reddish with gold reflects
DS 504 – A brilliant teal with silver reflects
AMC 73 – A shiny medium purple with silver reflects
AMC 63 – A matte black
Inglot doesn’t have names for their eyeshadows.
The texture is impressive, smooth and very “blendable” with minimal fallout! I understand why the YouTube/blogger gurus are saying that Inglot can rival MAC. The color payoff is awesome even without using a base. But i suggest you use one to get the real beauty of these colours. I would love to add some more of these to my collection, but it isn't cheap
On the Inglot website, a single eyeshadow retails for US$12.00 and the palette is a cost by itself. It is however still a bit cheaper than MAC. Worth a try in my opinion.

Without flash (no base)
Final thoughts:
This has easily become one of my (many) favourite go-to palettes. The colours are easy to apply and blend. And once used with a good primer and base, it lasts a long time and the colours remain true. I have found that if applied without a base, even though still pigmented it fades after a while. The most pigmented from this palette are the black and teal. But i am in love with all of them.
Overall rating:
5 out of 5!

ReplyDeleteYes you're right about the Freedom System, i should correct that in my post. The palette is a fixed cost and the shadows are less depending on the size palette purchased. I am looking forward to your review!! :)
