I confess I am addicted to ... Inglot

I have to confess I am a late bloomer, regarding Inglot. I have heard of course about them, that they have an amazing quality in all their products, especially eye shadows, eye liners and lipsticks - that they are pigmented, resistant and gorgeous. And still I avoided the Inglot shop ... maybe it was my wallet which was very afraid of getting empty ... Anyway one day I saw on Facebook they had a sale, it was a lovely sunny day so I decided to pay them a visit at their Baneasa shop. I live in Militari, sector 6 Bucharest , the shop is quite far away ... so I  have to be really motivated to go that far ...
  
As soon as I entered the shop I felt like entering a magic kingdom ... of beauty and colour. It was amazing, so many things from make-up to nail polish, tools and many others. Bliss! Anyway I swatched some eye shadows, pigments, blushes ... I knew from that moment on that I was already addicted ... So I left with a few products that I will show you today after testing them for a few months or so (I have paid them another visit and bought some matte eye shadows, I will tell you about them in another post, after testing them for a little longer). But first a little about Inglot.

INGLOT currently has a presence at all major beauty happenings and events around the globe, from the runways of Fashion Week to the stages and sets of TV and Broadway musicals.

The international expansion began in 2006 with the opening of the first franchise store in Montreal, Canada. Fast growth and development of the company soon resulted in becoming available in nearly 70 countries on six continents. At the moment INGLOT can be found at about 500 boutique stores, stands and retail locations internationally in most prestigious places, such as Times Square and Chelsea Market in NYC, The Dubai Mall, Westfield London, Plaza Carso in Mexico City, Dundas Square in Toronto and many others.

This is the entire shopping spree :

  One eyeshadow & blush palette.
  One blush in 50 matte.
  Four eye shadows in 502 grey, 605 brown copper, 314 matte orange peach and 30 champagne.
  Three eye pigments in 28, 64 and 68.

I'll start with the eye shadows and blush. They are very pigmented, they have a minimal fall-out, they blend well and the most important thing, they last onto the skin (if you are wearing a base or primer they last even better).

I have also bought three eye pigments in 28, 64 and 68.They are gorgeous! Very pigmented, you only need a very small amount and the result is wonderful. I think I will pass them on to my future daughter ... They have a variety of colours and I had a very hard time choosing what pigment to buy.  
You can see them below.

All in all, I love Inglot! I still have many things to try, test and explore from them but from what I have tested so far we will have a long love story Inglot and I. They have very good quality products and the Freedon System which allows you to create and personalize your make-up is fantastic! Pay them a visit in the store and you won't be dissapointed! It is an exciting universe full of beauty and colour to explore!

A dose of English :
A late bloomer is a person whose talents or capabilities are not visible to others until later than usual. The term is used metaphorically to describe a child or adolescent who develops slower than others in their age group, but eventually catches up and in some cases overtakes their peers, or an adult whose talent or genius in a particular field only appears later in life than is normal – in some cases only in old age.
addicted - to cause to be physiologically or psychologically dependent ; to occupy (oneself) with or involve (oneself) in something habitually
fall-out - to fall from the lid onto the base of the eye
