So we’re back again with our third blog post (feel free to
check out our other posts!) and we decided that it was about time we did a post
on something we’ve been meaning to do for a long time now… Our Inglot Palettes!
We have one natural / daytime palette and one bright-ish / night time palette
and we intend on getting more! So let’s get going with the first palette:
Summer/Spring palette
colours left to right: 342, 31, 397, 46, 24.
We have pretty much complete opposite colours in our palettes, which is great comparing as we have a winter/fall one and a spring/summer one. As you can see this palette is all neutrals with one shade that's adds that pop of colour for a super cute summer look!
342- Is just a simple matte brown and is the perfect natural crease colour for more pale toned skins.
31- Is a shimmery sandy brown and looks great swept across the lid.
397- Is a pearly pink, looks great for a slightly more pale summer look.
46- Is an amazing shimmer peach with a lovely iridescent silver colour, great for the inner corner.
24- Is a cool minty green colour and looks great in the inner corner for a subtle pop of colour.
Favourite look (very natural):
1 – (Prime lids) Sweep 397 all over the lids.
2 – Apply 342 into the crease and blend the two colours out.
3- Take a little bit of 46 and pack that into the inner 1/3 and inner corner.
4- Your done, add a little bit of brown eyeliner and some mascara for a more finished look.
Favourite look (pop of colour):
1-(prime lids) Sweep 31 across the lid focuses on the outter eye and placing only little (or even better none in the inner third).
2- Apply 342 into the crease and blend the two colours out.
3- Pack 24 onto a damp shader brush and pack that into the inner 1/3 and inner corner.
4- Sweep a little bit of 31 under the lid and with a bit of mascara your done!
Fall/winter
Colours left to right- 07, 606, 12, 452, 402.
(swatch colours go right to left)
402 Pearl - My favourite colour in this palette, a beautiful shimmery taupe shade with a slight iridescence.
452 Pearl – A very pigmented shimmery plum shade, just quite
hard to wear.
12 Shine – Very similar to 452 just has more orangey
undertones.
606 Pearl – Bright burnt shimmery orange, quite similar to
Chopper by Urban Decay but brighter.
07 Shine – A very deceiving colour in the pan it looks quite
creamy, but in real life it’s a lot more yellow / bright gold, can look pretty
in the tear duct though for a bright pop.
Favourite evening look:
1 – (Prime lids) Sweep 402 all over the lid.
2 – In the “Outer V” use 452 for a nice colourful pop.
3 – Blend!
4– Push 12 along the top and bottom lash-line, trying to get
as close to the lashes as possible, we are only trying to add definition, not
make it look like eyeliner.
5 – To highlight the inner corner and really make your eyes
pop, use 07.
6 – Add some mascara and your Done!
Formula:
The formula of every one of these shadows is very creamy
with minimal fall-out. They have some serious pigmentation and with a decent
primer (we love the Urban Decay Primer Potion) they can last all day. The shade
range is phenomenal (which is not always a good thing as it makes you want all
of them!) with budget friendly prices too.
Packaging:
Not only do they have a large amount of colours to choose from, great colour pay off and a lovely texture. The packaging looks great as well. As you can see it is a five colour palette with a magnetic glass top. The packaging looks really sleek and looks quite unique to them.
Inglot freedom system:
Our palettes are both from the inglot freedom system. If you don't know what the inglot freedom system is, it's basically where you buy an empty palette (your choice between 1,2,5,10 ect) and then you can choose the separate colours you want to put in it. Although this is great sincce you can create the perfect palette, you may end up in the same problem as Roxy where your so overwhelmed by the colour choice you can't choose and end up with colours your not that happy with. Another problem is there is only one of each colour so my advice would be to go with a couple of colours in mind and go from there.
Where to buy it:
You can purchase inglot from the inglot shops or online at http://www.inglotuk.com/. Although they are somewhat pricey at £29.50 for a 5 colour palette, they are definately worth the money!
Overall, the inglot palettes are great providing you get the right colours. With good colour pay off, nice formula, lovely packaging and the colours of your choice they are pretty much all round great palettes.
Hope you've enjoyed this post, if you have any suggestions leave them in the comments below!
Have a wonderful day! x
