More L'Oreal Infallible shadows and swatches (and a FOTD)!

I already posted swatches of 5 of the shadows I own, but while I was out last week I found a new display in Walmart.  The display contained all the core shades and new shades.  I was SO EXCITED to see them!  Here's what the display looks like-


This side was totally covered by a display of sunscreen, so I made my husband pull the whole thing out.   I grabbed 3 of the new colors.  I purchased Endless Sea, Liquid Diamond, and Smoldering Plum.

Liquid Diamond, Endless Sea, Smoldering Plum

And here are the swatches:
L-R:Smoldering Plum, Endless Sea, Liquid Diamond

These swatches are only 1 swipe each, and I can't quite catch how awesome Liquid Diamond is.  It's like a lilac-y silver.  It's absolutely beautiful.

I'm kicking myself for not grabbing Glistening Garnet, so that's what I'm on the look-out for next.

Here's my FOTD today, using Liquid Diamond and Smoldering Plum.
And a close-up of the eyes:

I am totally addicted to these shadows.  I could totally see, over a period of time, ending up with every color of these shadows.  I love the pigmentation, they apply well, the texture is great...I have nothing bad to say about these.  Have you tried them? What do you think of them?

FOTD-Green eyes

My makeup isn't super special today, but I rarely use bright greens and I really like how my eyes turned out today.


On my face I used Estee Lauder Double Wear Light in Instensity 1, Maybelline Age Rewind undereye concealer in Fair, Maybelline SuperStay concealer where needed, Coty Airspun powder, and Hard Candy Pinup blush.  I also have NYX lipgloss in Sugar Pie on my lips.  Now on to the eyes!


Products used on eyes:LA Splash shadow base/sealer, shadows-L'Oreal Infallible shadow in Iced Latte, Madd Style Cosmetix pigments in Morning Dew and Who R U?, and L'Oreal Infallible shadow in Golden Sage to darken up just a tiny bit of the outer corner.  Wet N Wild creme liner and Revlon Photoready 3D Volume mascara. 

I used to be afraid of color, always sticking to neutrals or a light pink.  Now I sometimes feel dull and boring if I'm not brightly made up.  What do you feel more comfortable in-neutrals or color?

L'Oreal Infallible shadows and swatches

I know these shadows have been out for a little while, but I just recently decided to pick some up.  I had been eyeing the purple one for a while, and after a friend sent me a picture of one of the shadows she bought, I decided it was time to check these out.  I have ended up with 5 of them, 4 being from the core line and 1 being from the It's Gold Or Nothing At All collection.


L-R, top to bottom: Perpetual Purple, Golden Sage, Bronzed Taupe, Gold Imperial (from the summer collection), and Iced Latte

And here they are swatched-

L-R:Iced Latte, Gold Imperial, Bronzed Taupe, Golden Sage, Perpetual Purple

I've heard these are supposed to be dupes for Giorgio Armani Eyes To Kill, but I've never seen those.  The texture of these remind me of some of the Urban Decay shadows in the Naked 2 palette (which are the only Urban Decay shadows I own).  They're very creamy, almost buttery, if that makes any sense.  I'm wearing Gold Imperial and Bronzed Taupe today.  The shadows are holding up well and have stayed put (over my LA Splash eye shadow base/sealer).  I look forward to trying the rest of the shades I have and possibly picking up more.  I'd love to have Pink Sapphire!
