Inglot Freedom System Eyeshadow 'Pearl 428'

Hello Friends!

Today I am going to review Inglot Freedom System 'Pearl 428' which I recently purchased from Shopatmajorbrands.com during their 20% flat Sale on Inglot Cosmetics.

  

Price- Rs 300 for 2.7 Grams in Square Refills/ 1.5 Grams in Round Refills, I got this for Rs 230 after discount.

 

My Take On This Product:

I was waiting for a sale at Shopatmajorbrands.com since a long time as I had missed their 30% sale before.I have tried their gel liners and eye shadows in past too.I was superimpressed by their quality and wide range of products available.I almost went mad seeing the collection at their store. :p Anyways this time I wanted to try few of their 'Pearl' eye shadows  and blushes which are so raved about.I prefer eye shadows with pearl finish over shimmery ones, so I purchased those this time.

I bought all Freedom System Eye shadow refills as they are economical and you get a lot of quantity in case of square refills.These in pan costs around Rs 680 for 1.5 Grams,where as you get these refills for just Rs 300 for 1.5 Grams in case of Round refills, or 2.75 Grams in case of square refills.This thing sounds so weird no?I mean less quantity high price ?? I even bought all blush refills as they were damn economical too.If you go to stores, you cant buy refills without purchasing a palette.So thats why I prefer this site for buying refills, as you wont have to buy an empty palette, in order to purchase Freedom System refills.Generally I check for swatches online,decide shades that I like and then order online.

Ok now back to the product, Inglot Pearl 428 is a bright 'Midnight Blue' shade with a pearl finish.Its a damn pigmented eye shadow.I need just one swipe with my eye shadow brush for applying all over the lid.It blends nicely too without leaving any harsh lines.It immediately pops up my eyes, brightens a dull face.Whenever I use this shadow, I prefer a nude lipsticks as the shadow makes my entire eye makeup quite vibrant.This is so pigmented that I always skip an eye primer whenever I use this. :p Without a primer it stays for some 4 hours + on my eyes with slight creasing.With an Eye shadow primer, it stays for 6 hours + with not very distinct creasing.The texture of the shadow is pretty soft,but pressed in compact form so leads to no wastage of product.Its a must have shadow for Parties I feel, you can also use it on your outer corner with some light shadow on your lid, or may pair it with black to create smokey eyes, or even use it as an eyeliner.The quantity provided is good and will last me for a long time as I need just a single swipe each time.

Pros of The product:

-Its a bright Midnight blue shade.

-Texture is pretty soft but never leads to product wastage as it is in compact form.

-It has pearl kind finish with no visible distinct shimmers.

-Very apt for Party wear.

-It can be used with black to create smokey eyes or can be used as an eyeliner.

-With a primer creases little bit after 6 hours.

-Very pigmented and hence required just a bit for whole lid application.

-It will last me for a long time.

-Quantity provided is good.

-Wide range of colors available in this range.

-This shade immediately brightens up my face.

-Now we can buy Inglot products from Shopatmajorbrands.com

-These are fragrance and Paraben Free.

Cons Of The product:

-Freedom System shadows cannot be purchased from stores without purchasing an empty palette.

-I simply do not understand why Inglot has overpriced their products available in pan, even though quantity is very less.

-These may crease in few hours if you have oily lid.

Rating: 4.5 out of 5

Will I repurchase it? Definitely,  but other shades. :p

My Overall Recommendation: Please purchase these beauties if you like shadows with pearl finish.These are totally worth the price.

• Then follow instructions for Day Look.

Price: Rs 550 for 4 Grams, I got this after discount and offer for Rs 317 :)

 

My Take On This Product:

I was not very impressed with the blush 'Day Sheer' much due to presence of stark golden shimmers in it.However the blush 'Night Sheen' is a very pretty peachy brown blush with very finely milled golden shimmers that imparts a silky golden sheen to your cheeks.Its a very flattering shade for Indian Skin Tones.

Its comes in a pot like packaging with a see through transparent cover.I prefer this a lot as you can check the shades easily when you are in a hurry.On the transparent cover very beautifully L is embossed on it.There is a card inside mentioning instructions for use during day and night time.

The blush is dome-shaped and a pretty 'Peachy Brown' shade which is so versatile that you can very much wear it during day to your workplace and also during night to some party,I really mean it guys.Those with fair skin tones, can also use it for contour purpose.

This blush is not very soft like 'Day Sheer, which i liked because in this way there is product wastage while picking up with the blusher brush.I require one swipe of this blush for light Natural application and two when I want to intensify it.I really liked its pigmentation as its moderate and I can use it according to my need.

 

Staying power of this blush is 4-5 hours, It fades evenly leaving slight peachiness at the end of the day.The texture of the blush is neither very soft or hard.However, I wont say it blends like a dream or anything.I mean you need a good fluffy blusher brush for blending it, flat ones wont blend it nicely.Anyways, Its entirely fine for me as I have fluffy blusher brush with me.Overall I am very impressed with this shade and recommend it to everyone.

Pros Of The Product:

-Very pretty Peachy Brown shade.

-This particular shade is apt for Indian skin tones.

-The texture of the blush is quite soft and blends well.

-Its a moderately pigmented blush, so you can use according to your need.

-Staying power is near to 4 -5hours.

-Packaging is very attractive.

-It can be used for contouring purpose too.

-Its one of the cheapest baked blush available in the market.

-Its a versatile shade and can be used both during day and night.

-It contains very finely milled golden shimmers which gives a pretty golden sheen to cheeks.

-Never accentuates my pores.

It will last me for a long time.

-Lakme India website has finally updated about Lakme Absolute range. :p 

Cons Of The product:

-Not provided with a blusher brush or mirror.

-It may seem pricy for many people.

-Very few limited shades are available in this range.

-I wish they had at least one matte blush in this range.

Rating: 4 out of 5

Will I repurchase it? I wont need to.It will last me  for a long time

My Overall Recommendation: Very flattering shade for Indian Skin tones.So highly recommended.

 I have applied two swipes to show you guys!

Nyx Round Lipgloss 'Apricot'

Hello Friends!

Today I am going to review 'Nyx Round Lipgloss' Apricot which I got from StyleCraze.com recently during their Nyx Sale. 

What The Company Says?

Price: 1.99$, In India Rs 199 for 2.5 ml, I got this for Rs 169 after discount.

My Take On This Product:

When I saw Nyx Round Lipgloss available at an awesome discount,I had to buy one of these at any cost.I was confused between 'Peach' and 'Apricot'. I searched for swatches online and liked the shade 'Apricot' a lot.Its a bright coral shade and looked very pigmented too.

                                NATURAL LIGHT

These gloss comes in cute plastic tubes with a black cap which looks very girly :p and these are travel friendly too.I am getting so obsessed with this gloss that it has to be there in bag to my work place at all cost.I have never ever felt this obsessed with a gloss except Revlon Colorburst Lipgloss Papaya of course.

This gloss looks very pigmented in swatches, but somehow I didn't find it that pigmented on my lips.I was not very impressed with the color payoff.It looks like a pretty Peachy pink shade with a 'Glass Like' appearance.

Its a wearable gloss, which you can wear at any time of the day anywhere.Considering its wearability, I am liking it a lot.Its staying power is maximum 2-3 hours without a meal.Its very lightweight, you wont feel a thing on your lips.Its not at all sticky and keeps my lips hydrated for a long time indeed.

                                    ARTIFICIAL LIGHT

 

Pros Of The Product:

-Cute and handy packaging.

-Very pretty coral shade.

-Its a lightweight lipgloss.

-It imparts a 'Glass like' appearance on my lips.

-It looks more of a peachy pink shade on lips.

-It stays for 2-3 hours on my lips, which is pretty good for a lip gloss.

-Its not a bit sticky.

-Keeps my lips well hydrated for a great time.

-This is such a subtle shade,I can wear it any time of the day.

-It has doe foot applicator which makes it very easy to apply on lips.

-Its very reasonable, I got this at rs 169 only.

-This gloss never gets streaky on my lips.

Cons Of The Product:

-Though it looks pigmented in swatches, doesn't look much pigmented on my lips.

-The applicator stem gets very messy and picks lots of gloss.

-The quantity is very less, only 2.5 ml.

-Once again availability is an issue.

Rating: 4 out of 5

Will I purchase it? Yes in some other shade.

My Overall Recommendation: You all girls are surely going to like this lip gloss a lot.Go and have one of these in a shade of your choice.
