Summer Lust List!

Slowly but surely i am determined to get some of these beauties in my life...

1 - Inglot Eyeshadows.
I am obsessed with my Inglot shadows and have been lusting after some new ones for what seems like forever (its really not that long, I'm just a drama queen). In particular i really want some more cool toned neutrals and a few pearl brights including shimmery limes and oranges!

2 - A Better Camera
I have none in particular in mind yet, just an upgrade from my current £50 bargain. Yes mine does the job (most of the time) but it would be nice to learn to take some better snaps with a nice new camera. Just nothing toooooo expensive.

3 - New GHD's
Not sure why, but lately my hair has refused to stay straight and has been returning to its usual wavy (and not in a good way) state within an hour or two. Which to be honest is thoroughly annoying! So these are at the top of my must buy list! Mine are about 6 years old and have taken a bit of a battering, so I'm eyeing a nice glossy new pair.

4 - Revlon Lip Stain Balms
There is a fair bit of American makeup on my written Lust List (yes, i actually keep a written list!) but as these are rumoured to be making an appearance in the UK next month i thought I'd include them! Although, i think i might do a shopping list post of all the American makeup i hope to get my paws on later this year!

5 - Darling Girl Cosmetics (all of it)
Okay, all of it may be a slight exaggeration, but hey! This website has been taunting me and my no buy for some time now and I'm not sure i can resist much longer! I've got my eye on tooooo many things on the website including shadows, glitter glue, lip products and multiple scents of their skin quenchers. Must, resist!

6 - Caudalie Beauty Elixir 

If you read blogs you'll know exactly what this is. Its stupidly expensive but somehow this has not put me off lusting over it. /sigh


7 - Dinair Airbrush System 

This is a relatively new lust. Do i need it? God no. But i really, really, really, really want one.
*Insert tantrum*

So thats it!
Lust lists are a rare post for me, but i thought I'd share some of the goodies that are catching my eye lately, and knowing my will power will probably be making an appearance on my blog some point in the near future!

Are you lusting over any products lately? Let me know!

Inglot Freedom System - Rainbow Neutrals

Hiya lovelies!

Another long overdue post for you today. If you remember back a couple of months ago i was lucky enough to win one of Girlie Review's giveaways that included not one, but TWO five pan Inglot Palettes.

As some of you may know i LOVE Inglot shadows, i picked up quite a few at Imats this year and have been lusting after more ever since. So needless to say i was over the moon when i won these! The rainbow shadows were at the top of my lust list, and for an eyeshadow hoarder, i really don't have that many mattes! So this palette was the perfect addition to my little collection. I've been absolutely loving the lighter neutrals with a bit of winged liner for a more "Pin Up" look, I've been wearing some of the more medium browns lightly through my brows and needless to say the matte blacks gotten quite a lot of love! I'm really wondering why I've never really owned mattes before, they are SO versatile! Love!

Price wise these aren't too expensive in the UK at £6 each, but once you've bought a few and a palette it soon mounts up. But in comparison to other brands of around the same quality its phenomenal! The Inglot palettes start from 1 all the way up to 20 or 40, so theres a size to fit any budget. If you live near London, i really recommend checking out their Westfields store, then you can get a feel for the products, have a little swatch and not pay annoying postage, which is a whopping £6!

Again, if you can get your hands on Inglot shadows, DO IT, they are well worth the money. They've just released some new shades... So more to add to my lust list! I can see a new palette (or two) being ordered before too long, hehe!

I'd like to pop in another big thank you to Girlie Review, feel free to check out her blog, she posts some awesome reviews and videos!

And you can check out the UK Inglot website here.

Inglot Freedom System Eye Shadow - Swatches

Aloha!

If you've seen some of my previous FOTD's or any of my IMATS posts you would of noticed i picked up these bad boys. Four ten pan palettes from Inglot's freedom system. These are probably the most exciting purchase for me of the year so far, and i'm not sure i'll find any that top them either!

For any of you that have been living under a rock over the past year or so... Inglot are a Polish brand that have recently gone global and have been getting a lot of attention in beauty blogging community. I purchased a good few things from Inglot but for today I'll be focusing on their infamous freedom system shadows.

Their freedom offers a variety of different sized palettes varying from £2 - £20 giving you the freedom to pick and choose your own shades. They come in five different finishes and over 200 shades. Matte, Double Sparkle (DS), Pearl, Shine and Advanced Makeup Component (AMC). The pigmentation of these is phenomenal and they blend like an absolute dream.

Its a tad hard to choose but i think the pearl finish is my favourite. DS are a matte shadow packed full of glitter and the shines seem to vary per colour. Some leave as the name would suggest more of a sheen and others are more pearl like with added glitter (39 being one of those).

So onto the swatches!

 

The one downside to Inglot is that there is only one UK store in London and although they now have a website its a little tricky to pick colours due to their pretty awful swatches. I did quite a bit of searching online and couldn't find a huge amount of clear swatches for the colours or finishes i wanted. Although Temptalia does have a pretty good selection.

Considering the booth was pretty packed i think i managed to pick out a pretty good selection of shades. I'm still greedily lusting over some more matte neutrals and some pearl brights, I'm an addict. Price wise online a full 10 palette will set you back £53 which may sound a little pricey, but take into consideration you'd pay around £150 to fill a Mac palette. In my opinion the quality of these is superior to Mac.

Inglot shadows can be purchased for £4.50 each online here.

Which shades are your favourites?
