L'Oreal Paris Infallible Eyeshadow

I am an eyeshadow girl! I have way too many to chose from! In this post, I will be writing about the L'Oreal Infallible eyeshadows. From the L'Oreal website "make a lasting impression without batting an eye. Infallible Eyeshadows contain ultra concentrated colour pigments, for an intense colour finish and up to 24 hour long-lasting hold. Immense, endless, breathtaking blue with a myriad of starry glimmers for eyes of exalted strength." 

I own three out of the 16 that is on offer in Australia (not sure if there's more overseas). They are Hourglass Beige, Purple Obsession and Forever Pink. Hourglass Beige was the first one I picked up a couple of years ago (I can't remember where) from a local chemist. I was really impressed by the colour and the smoothness when I swatched it. Not too long ago, I picked up the purple and pink from a bargain bin at another chemist just on a whim.

The eyeshadows come in little adorable jars with a black stopper to keep the pigment tightly packed in. I found that the best way to apply these shadows are with my fingertips. They seem to glide easily over the lids that way. I have tried using different brushes but I cannot get enough product onto them and then onto the lids. If you had success with using brushes please let me know as cleaning my hands after gets a little annoying. 

I've been using Forever Pink on my eyes everyday this week for work and blending it with light and dark brown shadows. I didn't use a primer or base for this and the colour and finish last the work day with no creasing - that's good! Purple Obsession goes on a little lighter than expected so for a smokey look, I used a solid purple eyeshadow as the lid colour and using Purple Obsession as the blending colour as well as on top of the lid for an added sparkle.

Forever Pink is a lovely rose colour with lots of tiny gold shimmer particles. This gives a nice glow to the lids. Purple Obsession looks really dark in the pot but does swatch lightly. This colour can be built up but I find a lot of the colour stays on my finger! Hourglass Beige is a highly frosted shimmery champagne colour. Such a nice all over the lid colour.

At the moment, Priceline is having a 3 for 2 sale on L'Oreal cosmetics. The eyeshadows are a little too pricey ($19.95 from Priceline) for me so I haven't ventured to buy any more colours.

Have you tried any of the Colour Infallible eyeshadows?
