I'm Kinda Clairvoyant

WOW, I've been gone for ages, haven't I?

In the last few weeks, I've been recovering from surgery,

launching a new polish collection,

and getting ready to move....so to say the least,

it's been insane over here!

I do hate neglecting my blog readers though, so I will try to be 

more consistent with my posts.

And speaking of post, I've got a new one for you today!

I am one of those poor souls that was way too slow 

to be fortunate to grab the ever elusive,

Cult Nails Clairvoyant aka Unicorn Puke.
I weep silently every time I see a post or pic with this
breathtaking polish. 

And so while I am still hunting for a bottle that won't cost me
a car payment, I decided to experiment with
a few different toned flakie polishes to see if I could
capture the look of Clairvoyant.

 

I started with a single coat of Color Club's Disco Dress, 

a vibrant violet purple.

Then, a single layer of Max Factor's, Fantasy Fire.

Then I used 3 different flakie polishes,

lightly applied. 

INLGOT #205

Essie Luxe Effect in Shine Of The Times

&

Picture Polish in Festival

Here is the and result

 

An exact dupe? 

No, I wouldn't say that, but it does capture the same look as 

  Clairvoyant and for the moment it's satified my craving for

this amazing polish.

What do you think?

Inglot Haul

Here is my latest haul from Inglot.

If you are not familiar, Inglot is a cosmetic company based out of Poland,

that is quickly rising in the ranks to be known

as one of the top makeup brands. 

I'll admit, I'm completely obsessed and my 

Inglot collection is growing larger and larger by the day.

The quality, lasting ability, and pigmentation far 

surpasses anything I've ever previously owned,
and I am always thrilled to death to get my hands on new goodies from them.

These are loose shadows that can be placed into

Inglot's "Freedom System" palettes. I do own a couple of them,
but I much prefer to place them in my Z palettes. 

The fantastic thing about buying these particular 

loose shadows are,

they have 2.7 grams of product compared to a 

standard MAC shadow at 1.5 grams.

and they are only $5.oo each! 

There is no need to de-pot them either, which for me is great,
because I always have a 
tendency to nick my shadows.

 You can purchase the single shadows in their case, 

which are $12.oo each.

My only complaint with Inglot is nothing has names, 

they are all numbered, 

so at times, it can be a little difficult to keep track of.

Here are they swatched, with no base

Like the shadows, the lipsticks also apply like a dream,

and last for ages.

Each one has a light scent, not over-powering,

but if you are sensitive to smells, be noted that they are scented.

#106, the Coral cream has a very light fruity smell,

while #413 has a light floral smell, very pleasant.

I think the scents go by finish, as apposed to shade, 

as I own a few Mattes, and they all have the same

light floral smell, #106 being my first cream, smells fruity.

Here are a few eye looks, created with these latest colors

Inglot AMC #30 as base, with MAC's Copperplate in crease

Inglot #322 on lid, #392 in crease, with #377 in outer V

#379 on lid, a blend of #334 & #392 in the crease, 

with a blend of #320 & #377 in the outer V

Haven't tried Inglot yet, but are considering it?

I HIGHLY recommend you run, not walk to your nearest Inglot

or for those that don't have an Inglot location to you,

you can order from their website as well.
