L'Oreal 24hr Infallible Eyeshadows

Guess what? I have another new eye product from the drugstore!! I've been going crazy with these lately but I'm in love with this one! The hype around this product has been around for months, when it first showed up in other countries and then in Canada I believe and us in America were going crazy wondering when we were ever going to get these! Then they finally were popping up inside Bed Bath & Beyond stores that have a Harmon beauty section and slowly they are now showing up everywhere, thank goodness! Well, as soon as I heard that my Bed Bath & Beyond added a makeup section I ran over and was freaking out when I found these. I bought three, two for me, one for a friend. I didn't go too crazy. Then I saw reviews and swatches and had to pick up another one at the drugstore. They've been compared to Giorgio Armani Eyes To Kill Intense Eyeshadow, but since I have never seen those in person, and don't own them, I can't say for sure. (They do look pretty similar and have the same idea with the 24 hr eyeshadow and the pressed pigment.)

 These go on super smooth, almost cool to the touch as well. They're creamy and have a metallic finish which reminds me of a pressed pigment or if you used a wet brush before you applied a highly pigmented mineralized eyeshadow. I have three of the 12 here to show you and they are amazing!

Here is a description & all of the claims straight from the L'Oreal website...

Swatches
892 Amber Rush swatched super pigmented, and super metallic as you can see. It's beautiful! 997 Eternal Sunshine isn't as pigmented as some may want. If you have a darker skin tone it may show up better and more gold, but on lighter skin tones it's more yellow. I used a few swatches of Eternal Sunshine to build up the color to show you in the picture but have to problem on my eye but Amber Rush, as you can see, with one swatch has extreme color pay off. 

I also got a super amazing dark blue one. I just kept photographing this one because it's so gorgeous!


Look at this color!? The sparkles and the rich, deep blue is amazing! 

Again, one swatch of amazing pigmentation.


What I love most about these is that they are so versatile. They can totally be worn alone, and I think I would usually wear them that way, but they can most definitely be layered with other eyeshadows as I've done and loved (tutorial coming soon). The pigmentation is crazy good, the quality for the price and how assemble it is now is fabulous. I'm so pleased with this product I can't say enough good things about it! I want all the colors. :)

Have you purchased any of these? (If not, clearly you should check them out!)
