L’Oreal Paris Infallible Eyeshadow All Night Blue Review, Swatches

L’Oreal Paris Infallible Mono Eyeshadow 06 All Night Blue Review, Swatches
What the Company claims: Make a long lasting impression without batting an eye. Infallible eye shadows contain ultra concentrated color pigments, for an intense color finish and upto 24 hour long-lasting hold.

Shades Available:

  • 04 Forever Pink
  • 12 Endless Chocolate
  • 05 Purple Obsession
  • 09 Permanent Khaki
  • 02 Hourglass Beige
  • 06 All Night Blue
  • 13 Burning Black
  • 15 Flashback Silver
  • 14 Eternal Black
  • 20 Pebble Grey
MRP: Rs. 450/- for 3.5 g

This was a part of the Cannes 2012 L’Or Electric Collection..

They all have different names in the US like this All Night Blue is called Midnight Blue, Endless Chocolate is called Continuous Cocoa, Purple Obsession is called Perpetual Purple, Permanent Khaki called Golden Sage and so on..

Some gorgeous shades like Smoldering Plum and Golden Emerald have not been introduced in India 🙁 I dunno why always the step motherly treatment..we also deserve all those pretty colors no..

This has a silver packaging..with a see through at at the bottom..and a lid on top..and a black inner lid for the hold..

The texture is quite different than normal eye shadows..its not powdery..but a little creamy sorts..and kinda crumbly..if you get it..its super pigmented..one swipe would give you the desired pigmentation and color..

All Night Blue is a deep midnight ink blue..a gorgeous shade..you can use it alone for midnight blue smokey eyes without the black..such deep shades do not even require black for the smokey effect..If you had seen and remember the IIFA awards recently, Parineeti Chopra had a similar blue dress and eye shadow..

In Sunlight

The color is bold for sure..and not something you can wear everyday..but the tip to use it in a wearable way is to use it as a liner..you can try and use Inglot Duraline too..or just normal water..coz these are made to be used both wet and dry..and stay on amazingly well both ways..

Pros:

1. Super pigmented..you get the desired pigmentation in a single swipe.
2. Stay on for a good 7-8 hours without primer too before they start to fade a little.
3. Works both wet and dry.
4. All Night Blue is a gorgeous midnight blue shade..which looks good as a liner too.
5. These are quite economical for the quality and 3.5 g would last quite long too !
6. Available in 10 shades

Cons:

1. Packaging is not so good..if the shadow falls even once..it would crumble up.
2. There is some fall out since these are not densely packed or satiny in texture..
3. Some amazing shades are not introduced in India..

Overall I do love this..All Night Blue is a gorgeous shade..and a perfect blue to have in stash if you do not have one..

L’Oreal Paris True Match Mineral Foundation Review

L’Oreal Paris True Match Mineral Foundation Review

You all know about the L’Oreal Paris Eye Contest..and how Niesha was one of the winners..see her beautiful look HERE
She had won the L’Oreal Paris True Match Mineral Foundation in W3 Golden Natural and has sent her short review about it..

What the Company claims: True Match Mineral Foundation, formulated using naturally occurring chemical components, brings about a new meaning to makeup that is safe and gentle on the skin. Being about 95% mineral based, the foundation glides smoothly to create a flawless coverage and hides blemishes and imperfections, without being heavy on the skin or clogging pores. With an SPF of 15 it is effective in reducing the premature aging effects of the sun.
Titanium Dioxide present in the foundation makes it good for sun protection. The silicates make the foundation shine resistant. Boron Nitrate gives the skin a lot of luminousity. Iron oxide greatly contributes towards hiding blemishes while Zinc Oxide present creates a soothing effect on the skin. Essential vitamins, like Vit B5 and Vit E that complement the mineral based composition, protect and nourish the skin.
Being dermatologically tested, the foundation is friendly to every skin type including the sensitive ones. The preservatives free, fragrance free and oil free properties further reemphasis its skin friendliness.

The foundation has shown great results in clinical trials and can
significantly improve the health of the skin in about four weeks’ time.
MRP: Rs. 1095/-
Shades available:
  • Golden Beige W4
  • Golden Sand W5
  • Creamy Beige N3
  • Honey Glow N6
  • Golden Natural W3
Niesha’s review:
It is a mineral foundation from the Lo’real’s true match range.
The product comes in a three piece packaging that consists of an outer transparent cap a middle lid with a buffer brush for application and the actual product in the lower container. The brush has nice bristles that makes the application and the blending easy without looking patchy.

It makes the skin silky and smooth and can be applied as per the coverage needed. It is easily blended and even if you apply more for more coverage then also it does not feel heavy on the skin. It also stays for good 7-8 hours which is good and has a nice and natural texture if you can find the right shade.
It is perfect for those who has oily or combination skin.
Me: It sounds good for everyday use and for those who do not require much coverage..plus the added brush is ideal for travel too..
