Why I luv INGLOT?
If you never tried INGLOT eye shadows, you are missing out! They are great quality: highly pigmented, milky, and smooth. They are extremely blendable and last all day. The best thing is the PRICE: $6 for a pot (called freedom system). With more colors then MAC, you are for a treat. I honestly don’t think I will ever purchase another MAC eye shadow ever again.

How I choose my INGLOT shades?
I heard of INGLOT few years ago, but I never tried it. It is a cosmetic brand popular in Europe. There are only few stores in US that sell INGLOT and my town, Houston, is not one of them. I came across a blog with some INGLOT swatches and wanted to test them out myself. I placed my order online (www.inglotusa.com) for 11 colors and 14 days later (yeah, it took a while L) I got my carefully selected shades. INGLOT has 100+ of colors, so it took me about 5 hours to select my 11 eyeshadows.
As you can tell from my selection, I was partial to purples/plum shades.
