Reorganising my eyeshadow palettes

With the change in weather (Australia is heading into cooler weather now) I've started going more for cooler grey and purple toned shadows, so I decided to reorganise my Inglot eyeshadow palettes to suit my changing needs.



I already had 2 x eyeshadow palettes from Inglot that fit 5 shadows each, but I felt the colours in each were too similar. Plus I had bought a few other Inglot eyeshadow refills that didn't have a home. So last weekend I bought an empty Inglot 10 pan palette and started swapping my colours around.

This is what I ended up with. The good thing about the Inglot round palettes is they fit my MAC shadows as well. Bonus... means I don't need a separate palette for my favourite MAC e/s. A few other brands' shadows also fit in there, so I use the same palette for all my favourites.

All photos are with flash - when I was taking the pics it was a horrible overcast day and it was impossible to shoot without flash. All photos can be enlarged bi clicking on them.

 Palette 1 - Greys and Taupes

My favourite out of this palette is 420, just look at the incredible pigmentation.
 

Palette 2 - Purples




Palette 3 - Blues and Greens



I still have my Naked Palette which is fabulous for warmer toned shadows, but during winter I know all three of my Inglot palettes will be getting a good workout.


Do you change your shadows around based on the weather?

  10. @Lori - oh what a shame they don't ship there, although it's only recently they've started having online AU store, so maybe they're expanding?

    @Emily - ooh which size palette are you getting? It comes in a 20 now.

    @Fee - thanks, and considering they're so much cheaper than MAC I'm happy to go with them!

    @Jessica - oh no, well maybe next time. And can't wait to see what you've ordered.

    @Christina - you won't regret it, they're really good quality.

  16. @Ebru - Inglot is a dangerous thing, you become addicted so quickly!

  17. I've been wanting to start my own pro pallet, would you recommend MAC or Inglot? x

    ReplyDelete
  18. @FiaSo - Hmmm... I like them both, but if I was being honest I think the Inglot ones are better than MAC. With MAC some of the formulas are a bit hit and miss, but in my experience all my inglots have been great. Plus they're half the price of MAC here in AU. Once you swatch a few Inglots, you'll see how fantastic they are.

  19. Oh, I'm so glad I came across this post! I LOVE Inglot and have been wanting to buy an empty pan and slowly build up the shadows in it for a while now. I've eyeballed a few that you have and have added them onto my list! Thanks! Xx
