L’Oreal Infallible Eyeshadow 040 Cosmic Black – Rs 475, Limited EditionL'Oreal Color Infallible Eyeshadow 040 Cosmic BlackL'Oreal Color Infallible Eyeshadow 040 Cosmic Black reviewWhen I first looked at the pack, i confused the shade with permanent Khaki, but when I looked in, it was an amazingly gorgeous shade !!  I got this from l’oreal outlet at shoppers stop and it came free when I purchased goods worth Rs 1500, which was quite a bargain !

Color– L’Oreal Infallible Eyeshadow 040 Cosmic Black is a blackened golden olive shade/pigment. Cosmic Black is one of three limited edition shades L’oreal released as part of the L’or Electric collection, celebrating the Cannes Film Festival. However I am not sure if this shade was released in India.L'Oreal Color Infallible Eyeshadow 040 Cosmic Black review I looooooove these eyeshadows, amazing payoff, beautiful shades, nice packaging and last but not the least decently priced.

Texture & Formula – These eyeshadows apply smoothly with minimum to no fall outs. Its super easy to blend. I wanted to collect most of the shades available but due to some or the other reasons haven’t. I only have endless chocolate and would love to add permanent Khaki in my collection soon 🙂

Pigmentation – Superb is the only word. These loose pigments are amazing and give opaque finish in one go. L'Oreal Color Infallible Eyeshadow 040 Cosmic Black swatchesStaying power – Stays on for good 5-6 hours without primer and 9+ hours with primer underneath. I love to wear it while doing smokey looks as its the perfect color to add some glamour to otherwise flat/ regular look.

This is the look I created today using cosmic black.L'Oreal Color Infallible Eyeshadow 040 Cosmic Black eotd and swatchesHow I achieved this look

  1. Apply Maybelline gel eyeliner all over the lid using an eyeshadow applicator brush.
  2. Blend out the edges using a matte brown eyeshadow, I have used MAC Embark with the help of a fluffy blending brush.
  3. Apply L’Oreal Infallible Eyeshadow 040 Cosmic Black in the middle of the eyelid and blend the edges using same brown eyeshadow.
  4. Apply a mix of black and brown eyeshadow on the lower lash line and blend it out.
  5. Apply some black gel liner on the upper lash line, add some mascara and you are done !!

 

Overall Thoughts

A must have, only if you can have access to this shade. Despite of being in loose pigment form, its pretty ease to apply and blend which I love the most. Superbly pigmented with good lasting power makes it all the more irresistible.
