Inglot Matte Freedom System 10 Palette + 4 Extra

My Inglot Matte Palette (plus extras)

I went back to Inglot a couple of weeks ago with the intention of obtaining more mattes. I already had a handful of matte eyeshadows from my 30 palette, & another from a 5 palette I picked up at Christmas. I have been raving about them since.

Inglot's matte eyeshadows have fast become my favourite Inglot texture since getting my first palette. These mattes are the best I've ever used. They're silky, smooth & so easy to work with. I've been mainly using them for neutral looks so far.

On my matte hunt I picked up 7 more mattes (with a couple more AMC textures too) in a funky 10 Square magnetic palette. Using my 10% Off voucher (received with my December purchase) it was about $76AU.

I wanted to put all of my mattes together so, I took all the mattes out of the 30 palette & put them into the 10 palette with some of the new acquisitions. I have 4 extra mattes that will live inside my UNII Palette until I get another 10 palette.

Unfortunately in my rush I got one double of 392M :( but it's a nice colour so I will be using it eventually. The double will reside in a "spare palette" until I need it.

Here are the numbers:

Top Row: 373M White, 351M Cream, 352M Beige, 390M Grey/Brown, 361M Peach
Bottom Row: 360M Brown, 363M* Medium Brown, 378M Dark Brown, 376M Dark Grey, 362M Pink

4 Extras: 392M Medium Purple, 379M Dark Purple^, 384M Green, AMC63+ Black

*This particular eyeshadow was from a sale palette I purchased at Christmas time. I think it must be older stock as it doesn't have the number on the bottom - from swatches & pictures of Inglot Freedom eyeshadows I've seen online the closest I've found is 363M, so that's my guess.

+ Technically this eyeshadow is not deemed a matte texture, it's an AMC (Advanced Makeup Component) colour however it is definitely a matte black.

^Unfortunately the camera gave the 379M a bluish tinge, but it's definitely purple. Inglot have a purple/blue matte eyeshadow but I didn't get it as I don't think it would suit my eye colour..

Do you have any Inglot Mattes? What do you think of them?

Inglot Pure Pigments #87 (Matte Black)

I've been collecting Inglot's Pure Pigments for a couple of months now after discovering Duraline*.

I was intending to buy a Inglot's black Gel Eyeliner when I discovered this Matte Black Pure Pigment #87. I've found that I'm not always great at applying Gel Eyeliner & that Duraline is easier for me to use. Anyway, I figured that I could kill two birds with one stone & get this pigment to use as eyeshadow AND eyeliner. I'm very glad that I did!

Pure Pigment #87 is a one of the blackest blacks I've ever used & is extremely matte. For the first time I've found it much easier to do a neat black eyeliner (with an eyeliner brush & Duraline).

I also use this pigment to layer over brighter colours (such as metallic orange, or hot pink) to give it a duotone look. It works really well!

I haven't used #87 as a base yet - that's something for the future.

(No base/No flash/No mixing medium)
It gets even blacker with Duraline!

I found another use for #87 & Duraline too! On Halloween I used it to draw a spooky spiderweb on my face from the corner of my eye to my hairline (paired with Inglot's Red #50 AMC Eye Shadow on the lid). It worked so well! I wish I had a photo to show you but I didn't get one! :(

Tip: If you're using this pigment as an eyeshadow make sure you do your foundation & powder AFTER you apply as I'm not kidding - it's VERY VERY black. I don't get much fallout but it is a powder so things could happen. Also, take care when using it. I have daymares about dropping this pot & black matte pigment going everywhere.

Did I mention that it was really black?

I love Inglot Pure Pigments & this is fast becoming one of my favourites.

Inglot's Pure Pigments are $25AU each.


Definitely recommended!


*Duraline is a mixing medium by Inglot which turns pigments & eyeshadow into a liquid that can be used as an eyeliner or eyeshadow base etc.
