Inglot cosmetics

Inglot cosmetics is a company that originated in Poland. Originally the only store that exsisted in the U.S. was in New York.  This is where I ran into this store but unfortunately didnt have a chance to stop by and check it out. One day as I was researching about this cosmetic brand I found out that they had opened a new store located in fashion island (orange county). Now their website is up and running and you can order from there any time you want. So this store intrigued me because there were so many videos online of all the things the store carries.  When I finally decided to go see this store I felt amazed. I decided to purchase from the freedom system. Let me explain...so this store carries foundation,  powder, blush, nail polish, eye shadows, lashes, brushes etc. Yet they have something called the freedom system. These are palettes u can create on your own. Theres a 2, 4, 5, 10, 20 and now even a 40 palette. Some of these can include different things like some powders, blushes, eye shadows, concealer. I bought a 10 palette of eyeshadow.  They have a clip board and all the eyeshadows displayed on a table and u pick them up and put them on ur magnetic clipboard and then they look for your colors at the register. The eyeshadows can be square or round. If im not mistaken the price for the palettes is about 6 dollars per eyeshadow. I know for sure the 40 eyeshadow palette is $240. Theres always pros and cons to things like this. This brand is amazing. Color pay of is great. You dont need a primer to make these colora stand out. I love the price. I have Mac palettes and buying the refill pans on those are $11 each. Plus the squared eyeshadows are much larger than a Mac eyeshadow. You dont need a lot of product to get the color you want. I love the packaging. The lids are transparent that way you can see the colors in the palette. The packaging is also magnetic. The lid closes with the magnets in the corner and you can stack all the palettes and they dont move from one another. The down side is that you do have to purchase all of the eyeshadows at once. Its like a special price. So you cant just buy five at time. You would have to save your money and purchase it all at once. The eyeshadows do have fall out when your trying to pick up product on your brush so you have to do it lightly. The eyeshadows do not have names all they have is numbers so it sucks when ur trying to make a new palette and you dont have the other with u. But overall its really worth it. I think that if your staring your makeup collection and you want to get lots of colors for a low price this might be the way to go.

My top makeup brushes

Hello girls and welcome back to my blog. Its been a while but I will try to keep posting as I was before the pregnancy. So lets begin I decided to wash my brushes today and decided to pick my top brushes that I prefer to use in a makeup look. I will post a pic and will try to talk about them from left to right as the picture shows them. So the first brush is my blush brush. I bought this from avon catalog a very long time ago. It works great and I never seem to put an excessive amount. My bronzing brush I recently got maybe about 2 months. I was using an angled brush beforw but I find that this one has much better precision and blends much nicer. Its thw mac 109 . Concealer is something u really want to blend well so there arent any creases in ur skin. I use a brush that was in a flawless kit at sephora and it works wonders. My powder brush I got from an online store and the name literally just left my tounge. When I remember I will post as a comment on here. This brush I feel spreads the powder evenly and I hardly have to pick up more product. Oh crown brush is the name of the store. And last for face brushes is my foundation brush. This one I bought at sephora and its a round head and its very dense. I like this because when I apply my foundation is covers well without having to do a lot of work. It blends nicely and doesnt leave streaks. Now to begin with the eyes! The first brush I got at sephora and its an angeled brow brush. I have used several but this purple one is my favorite. Next is a mac 134 and this I only use when u want to define my eyebrows by adding some concealer. Its stiff when it needs to be and blends very well. Now for the eyes I mostly use my mac 239 and 217 for every look. All the others following it I use for crease or outer corner to add definition to it.

Maybelline Color Tattoo

So recently i have been watching a lot of YouTube videos to try to keep on track of all the new products that have been released. I have been working so much and haven't been able to do much of blogging. So i logged on and a lot of YouTube gurus have been posting videos reviewing the Maybelline Color Tattoo eye shadows. So as i was going home one day from work i decided to stop by Walgreens and see if they had some of the colors available. So the walgreens by my job had a buy one get one 50% off. So i decided to get 4 since they didn't have all the colors. I ended up getting a bronze, taupe, purple, and orange. And WOW! this is a great item. They are much like the paint pots MAC has. I would not use this alone as a shadow because even though it hasn't creased i feel that this would act much better as a color base to another powder shadow. The pigmentation was great on these. They are creamy and not sticky. I did find that you have to let it dry before you add another coat of it because then t doesn't seem like your adding much color on it. I think they are a great price and will be purchasing the other colors. I did use a primer on these and they did not move, smudge wear off during the day. I used them for about 12 hours so im sure they probably would last the full 24 with no sign of creasing or wearing out. I would get my hands on these if you guys can.

Makeup of the day

I haven't posted something in a while and I really liked my makeup look today. I was going through some of my palettes and came across a MAC quad with a green and browns don't remember what collection. So I used bare necessity in the lid as a base then the green which might be bitter bit not completely sure. There was a glittery color that I used on the crease and the darker brown in the outer corner. If u need similar colors I can provide them.

Sephora Advanced Airbrush Set

About two weeks ago i decided to redeem my sephora gift card and check out the new things they had. I had to make at least a 50 dollar purchase to get 20 off. So i was looking around an an employee came to help me and he was applying this powder with a very soft brush. I was telling him i was in love with a foundation brush i had just purchased online. He told me that the brush he was using came in a set and showed it to me. The set was $65 i was excited because he said the foundation brush i ordered online was also in this set. Now the brush i originally ordered is not in this set yet the brushes are great! The only one that i really don't care to much for is the powder brush.The brush is dense and soft but u don't have much control over it when applying powder. All the other 4 brushes i love! I have been using those everyday since i got them. The concealer brush applies magnificently Its seems like u didn't put anything on. The foundation brush acts the same say it really does give an airbrush effect. There's also a crease brush and a flat shader brush. The shader brush i don't think is any different than other ones i have yet the crease brush is great. It blends great and with not a lot of work. I have other brushes that in order to get a seamless blend i have to take about 2 minutes to do. With this brush its super easy and it doesn't take as much time.

My makeup collection

So i tried really hard to record this for you guys but my camera was acting up. So since many of you asked me for this i figured i would take pictures and post them on here. Keep in mind that everything that is on these pictures has been purchased with my own money and has been collected over time not at all once. I have been buying makeup for a while now and this is my thing along with clothes and shoes lol but that's another thing. I save money to purchase these things. so sometimes instead of going out to eat all the time or buying electronics i buy my makeup. Hope u guys enjoy and if u guys want any reviews let me know and i can get those on here as soon as i can.

Top 10 MAC eye shadows

I have been into makeup for a very long time. I don't want to say i am an expert in this subject yet i feel i know what works and what doesn't. Mac has good quality for the most part and im a sucker for new collections or new products. So i was asked to choose a top 10 and for me these are the colors that i use the most. I have 5 mac palettes and several pigments and eye shadows in pans. So lets begin (these will not be in any specific order)
1. Purfait-amour- This is a purple shade yet i feel it has a double color. I love to put this on my lid if im wearing a purple smokey eye or as a blending color if i use a darker purple shade on the lid. I love the way it applies.
2. Hypnotizing- this is another purple light color. I love this color on the lid or for under the eye. i don't use this for blending but the color helps when i want a hint of purple on the lid. Im not sure if this is a permanent color i have seen it on a couple of holiday palettes but not sure).
3. Copperplate- i love this color when i want to do a light smokey grey look. This color is like a taupe but not a harsh one. It provides definition without overpowering the look. I love this for that specific purpose so i mainly use this on the crease.
4. Smoke and Diamonds- This color i reach for often. Sometimes to blend a smokey look or just to wear on its own. Its a wonderful color yet a different formulation than all the other Mac eye shadows. This formulation has only been released 2-3 times from what i know of and the pigmentation is great. They are very soft and not hard to get on a brush.
5. Crest the Wave- this color i love for green or any look that involves yellow. This color acts like the purfait amour because it cant look yellow or it can look a bit white. I love to use this on the tear duct area as a highlight or under the eye.
6. Sumptuous Olive- This is my favorite green of all of them. When i make a green look this is always on my eyes. Either as a crease blending color, in the lid or in the bottom of the eye. Since its more on the neutral side it can make the look more wearable for a day look.
7. This is not an eye shadow but  use very often and its naked pigment. I love this all over the eyes i can use it as a highlight under my arch of the eyebrow, i can use this on the tear duct or on the lid. I love this for any look when i cant decide what colors can go together.
8. Brown Script- I love orange looks especially in the fall and this is the color i use to define my outer v. I love this color because it can give me the great smokey/brown orange look with just this color and tan on the lid. I love it!
9. Off the page- this is a neon looking orange and i use this on every orange look at a blending color. It gives the right amount of color (because its not so pigmented) but a light hint of it to blend all the harsh lines. This product i believe is not permanent.
10. embrak- this color i use in every brown looking eye. I love this to define or make another color darker.
