That these products have been around is no news. But speaking of myself, I have not used L'Oreal too much to call myself an expert. But in anycase, here they are.. two shadows which really impressed me. L'oreal Color Appeal and L'Oreal Color Appeal Holographic eye shadows.
I had wondered why I would want to spend a fortune ( in my definition, anything more than 300 INR is a fortune indeed) on a single eyeshadow? But when I tried these, I saw the reason.
Let's admire them in the photos first
What I think:
The first one is Neon Blue which is holographic ( although I am clueless what thatin cosmetics is supposed to mean) and the other one is a beige or rather a pale gold .
Both the shades are well pigmented. But the Holographic, Neon Blue is a bit more impressive by this parameter I would say.
ok that came out like a nerd! :P
The swatches
The shadows are neither too soft to be powdery, nor hard so as to make it difficult to pick up on a brush.
They are neither overtly glittery, but renders a pearly-shimmery finish.
The staying power is good and I had taken a shower only to find out how water proof they are and they passed that test :P
( Argh!! That's the effect of watching The Big Bang Theory!!!) Excuse me ladies :P
Looks like those bunch of nerds are tampering with my regular style and I am not having it!!
The cons:
Since these have been around for quite some time, tell me your impression of it. I would love to hear your opinion and suggestions on L'Oreal products.
Love

The cons:
- Too pricey for a single shade. But then, I would always like to repurchase the beige.
