It’s been a long time that a drugstore eyeshadow has impressed me so much as the new L’Oreal Infallible Eyeshadows!
From L’Oreal – L’Oreal introduces an ultra intense eyeshadow that last from day until dawn – a full 24 hours. This revolutionary formula fuses the ease of a powder with the velvety caress of a cream to create a unique hybrid that glides on effortlessly. And with its unique technology, your eyes are enhanced with pure, magnified pigment. Make a lasting impression without battling an eye!
Intense, maximized color
Luxurious powder-cream texture
24-hour long-lasting hold
Waterproof, crease resistant, fade resistant
When I spotted the display for these new L’Oreal Infallible Eyeshadows at my local Walgreens, Amber Rush was the first color that caught my eye……I just can’t resist colors like these! Being a sucker for neutral shades, I also wanted to pick up Bronzed Taupe but it was not in stock on the display shelf at that time.
The texture of the L’Oreal Infallible Eyeshadow is indeed velvety smooth and although this is a pressed pigment shadow, it looks and feels so much like a cream eyeshadow. The soft, creamy formula is easy to work with and intensely pigmented so you won’t need much layering to get the desired color. I have had no issues with fallout either. Amber rush is a shimmery coppery-bronze with a metallic finish – as gorgeous on the lids as in the pot!
Since the formula promises to be fade and crease resistant, I put the claim to test by applying this eyeshadow without a primer on my oily eyelids. It was a little disappointing to see some fading and creasing after about 4-5 hours as the vibrant color-payoff had raised my hopes. That said, the formula proves to be truly long-lasting with an eyeshadow primer underneath and stays put practically all day with no signs of creasing/smudging.
L’Oreal Infallible eyeshadows have also been compared to the Giorgio Armani Eyes to Kill eyeshadows but since I haven’t indulged in the Armani version, I can’t say much about that. Regardless, L’oreal has nailed it on the spot with these new Infallible eyeshadows that are sure to please beauty junkies all around!
What do you think about the L’oreal Infallible Eyeshadows? Have you tried these yet? If you haven’t, these are definitely worth the haul!

This shade looks wonderful! I have this eye shadow in chocolate brown and it is so good. You are right about the lasting power though.

Disappointed about the creasing! That’s too bad, but thank you for your honesty.
Harshleen says
Mystique – Yeah, these are totally worth picking up!
Harshleen says
Vinatge Makeup – As I said, creasing is not an issue with a primer so give it a try if you like!
