A Review: L'Oreal La Couler Infallible Eyeshadow

I've had my eyes on these new L'Oreal shadows ever since they came out. The iridescent colours, the seemingly buttery texture was all too much to resist for a girl who's got a knack for makeup. After months of swatching them whenever I went to the drugstore, and watching review upon review on Youtube, I caved. I walked out the store leaving behind a bill, but walking out  with my sought after L'Oreal Infallible Eyeshadow.


























 I picked up the colour 001 Time Resist White, a very light and iridecent cream colour. The packaging is nice and sleek, and very easy to see the colour. It comes with a pusher to keep the pigment in place. There's a range of 16 shades in this collection from your neutrals, to your colours, matte to the most irridesent finish you may ever see. You get 3.5 grams of products, quite a bit for the 8-10 dollars you spend for this. Even though it is so cliche to say this, a little bit of these shadows, truly does go a very long way.

















These shadows are highly pigmented, just a dust of your brush and you've got more than enough to cover two lids. The consistancy is smooth, buttery, velvety, and very blend able. I do believe that these shadows are loose pigments, rather than a shadow explaing why they have so much more pigmentation than your everyday shadow. Since they are pigments, there is a bit of fallout, so beware when applying to avoid looking like you cry tears of glitter!



Sadly, these buttery shadows crease after a number of hours. Even being someone who has dry skin and uses a primer, it still creases after 5-6 hours of wear. However with a little touching up throughout the day, or a quick blend with your finger will do the trick to blend out any creasing.

I find this shadow applies best with a courser, and fluffier kind of brush, definitly not the synthetic types. The natural hair brush gives it a better edge and picks up more product in each swipe.
