Inglot.

In my previous blog post i mentioned a little shopping spree in Westfield with Nicola & Caroline.
I did buy a few things but one place in particular had me very excited.

Inglot.

I had heard this brand name before, floating about in the beauty community but had never given it much thought as i don't have a shop ANYWHERE near me. So when the oppertunity came to check out the products of course i was going to.
I went in with a completely open mind, had nothing in particular that i wanted to seek out, but ended up purchasing a 5 pan custom palette and a lipstick.



Nicola & I both wanted a 5 pan custom palette, and so we set about choosing colours...funnily enough, we both just ended up lusting over the same ones. (we just have fabulous taste) so we both came away with identical palettes. I was amazed by the cheap price tag that came with it too, £15 for any 5 colours, in a sleek black palette which includes a mirror and space for a little eyeshadow brush if you so desired.

Inglot, i have to say, is SUCH good quality. The shadows are amazingly pigmented and so creamy and easy to blend, they rival Mac, but obviously has the upper hand with it's cheaper pricing. There is also such a massive range of colours and you even get the option of having eyeshadows and blushers in square form..or circular. They spoil us don't they? They also have an extensive range of lipsticks (i had a hard time choosing which one to take home with me) and they are just as pigmented as Mac's.

The one thing that i don't like about Inglot though, is their ridiculous way of naming the products. It's all just numbers and letters. At least make them feel a bit more special with their own cute names?



The lipstick i purchased was more of a Mac "Slimshine". They did have proper lipsticks, but Caroline spotted these and they looked a lot more moisturising yet still highly pigmented.
I bought this beautiful coral colour,
I have been wearing this pretty much non stop since i've had it. It's perfect. Moisturising, pigmented and it looks and stays well on the lips. This was £9 & well worth it. I want to go back for more.


Swatches resemble order of palette.
From Left to Right:

What do you think of Inglot? Is there anything you think i need to check out?
