REVIEW: INGLOT 4 PAN FREEDOM SYSTEM




Hey guys,

I was going through my draft posts the other day looking for the post I did about this quad. I couldn't find it anywhere so here I am. I had a whole different type of post planned for today but that can wait until Sat.

I bought this freedom system palette last Oct. I mean why have I not blogged about it sooner? I'll get to that in a moment. I have wanted to try something from Inglot for what seems like the longest time. They have various pop up shops in shopping centres here in Ireland. The nearest one to me is Dundrum but I bought this in their store just off Grafton St., Dublin.


I am a huge fan of matte eyeshadows. When I was younger (I'm 31, not too old :P) I loved shimmer and metallic but that's kind of changed. I still love shimmer and metallics but I don't always wear them.

Let me tell you the numbers of these shades and then tell you how they perform etc.


  • Taupe Brown Shade is number 363
  • Grey Shade is number 376
  • Forest Green Shade is number 331
  • Lilac Pink Shade is number 334 

They swatch lovely but these are heavier than normal swatches. The best shade pigmentation wise for me is the green. I have slightly oily lids but nothing too crazy. I typically use MAC Pro Longwear Concealer as a primer for my eyes or use my KIKO Eye Base with a matte Urban Decay shadow on top of that to set it and I always wait 5 minutes to do my eyes after so I know things are set and ready to go. 

Unfortunately these shadows crease on me, fade away and take forever to build up. I am literally in disbelief over them. The pans are €6 each and the Freedom System palette was €8. That's €32 which is a great price. I even asked an Inglot MUA about the issues, was it normal or was I doing something wrong and there was no right answer really. It is a mystery.  

I used the purple shade this week in a video and I had to use 3, yes THREE, bases to ensure it stayed put for at least 8 hours. It did but there was noticeable fading. WHY OH WHY IS THIS HAPPENING?

I've thought about selling this quad or just giving it to my friend Sarah. Check out her blog here.

Have you guys had this issue with these shadows? It hasn't put me off the brand but it is disappointing considering everything else works on my eyes no problem, even Urban Decay stays on for 12 hours without a primer. DANG IT!

Let me know. Have a great day and do not forget to smile :D

NYX Face Off: Soft Matte Lip Cream vs Butter Gloss

Image
Want to know what I think is better from popular brand NYX? I am a huge fan of NYX. I love that whilst they have some dupes for higher end products they have a tonne of their own original products. The Soft Matte Lip Creams are an almost moussey feeling lip cream. I mean they don't call it a cream for nothing. I would highly recommend using a lip balm previous to applying this product. It dries matte so if there are any dry patches, it will sink into them. Whilst on the lips I would let it dry and apply as many coats as you like. I would typically use two. Whilst the colour is a vibrant hot pink (Addis Ababa) it can be sheered out to your preference. I find that these stay on the lips for up to four hours. Now, I have heard a lot about the hyped Butter Glosses. When NYX was released in Ireland earlier this year I decided to try one. I gave into the hype (oh no!). There was quite a selection but opted for Peaches and Cream, a gorgeous pinky coral. I hadn't and sti

My Acne Story | LUSH Grease Lightning

Image
Hello loves,  Well I have a different kind of post today. It is about my acne and a product I tested to try help it out.  I mentioned this in my Top 5 LUSH products post just this week. It is one of a kind. I am about to share some rather honest pictures so look away if you're easily offended.  My skin is oily in the t-zone area and can be dry elsewhere. It is also quite sensitive and I have redness on my jawline that can sometimes be quite visible. I use to have acne prone skin when I was a teenager and into my early 20's.  I will link to the LUSH website where you can see ingredients etc at the end.  I had noticed several blackheads on my face and really didn't want them to sit there and become worse so I decided to try this product. It straight away smells like Witch Hazel and Tea Tree which I like, it's an almost clean smell. It feels like a gel and as it dries you can feel it tighten over the designated area. This disappears when yo

Benefit 'Stay Don't Stray' Review

Image
Good Afternoon, Well it has been a minute since I done a review here. I will explain in a post next week where I have been and all that. So, I have always been a huge fan of the Too Faced Shadow Insurance. It is my absolute favourite eyelid primer. Nothing compares to it BUT I needed to try some more high end primers as my curiosity was getting the better of me. I saw some mixed reviews for this Benefit product, like seriously mixed reviews. Sometimes that is the selling point on a product, you have to find out what it's like then. They have two shade varieties, light/medium and medium/deep. What Benefit say about this product 'This dual-action power primer works 360 degrees around the eyes to make concealers AND eyeshadows STAY PUT. Concealers don't crease, eyeshadows stay vibrant & true. Contains sodium hyaluronate known to hydrate and Vitamins C & E known to help fight signs of aging.' When I first wore this product my expectat
