Review: Inglot Matte Transition shadows
In October 2015 I decided I really wanted to try Inglot shadows after having heard great things about the freedom system and having constructed my own magnetic palette.
Being very fair (Tarte's Amazonian Clay foundation in Fair Beige matches me well), it's a little tricky to find good transition shades. So all of the shadows featured here are light mattes.
First is a pale pink 356, it has fair pigmentation though is a little powdery (2.8g).
Next a light plum 344, the deepest of my group but still quite light (2.3g). This blends beautifully and is less powdery than 356.
337 is a light brown fairly neutral in tone (2.8g). It comes off on my skin a lot lighter than in the pan but that works well for me. The texture on this one is a bit drier than the previous two.
Also a little drier but nonetheless my most used is 341 a peachy brown (3g). This one is the least pigmented of the bunch but makes for a seamless transition for that very reason. It fades straight into the skin but if you have a deeper skin tone than myself this shade may frustrate you because it will require building up.
Finally is the most vibrant of the bunch, a medium peach 312 (2.8g). Like 356 this one is a bit powdery and though it is more vibrant in the pan than it is on the skin it is still the most pigmented of the lot.
Overall I like the shadows I got and I think they're quite good for the purpose I got them for. All are easy to blend but require building up to full opacity. I recommend them but wait until Inglot's annual sale as they go for $10 a pop in Australia.
Thanks for reading this quick review, for any further questions feel free to contact me.
