Review: INGLOT Freedom System

As promised, I tried out this two-pan INGLOT Freedom System palette. Read my “INGLOT in Belgium?”-post to know more about the cosmetics brand INGLOT and its unique Freedom System!



These pans can be filled with full-size eyeshadows or with ‘rainbow’ shadows, which are three similar colors in one pan. I tried out two of the ‘rainbow’ pans. Here you can see the swatches.



I especially like the neutral colored one, since it can be used for a daytime or an evening look, and it’s so compact, handy and tiny! Perfect for travelling!

But what about the quality? INGLOT claims it’s up there with MAC cosmetics and so I was very eager to find out if that is true. I have to admit that my first impressions about these shadows are very positive. I will have to try them out more though to actually decide if they’re better than MAC!




They apply and blend very nice. The consistency is nice and buttery, but I don’t think it is as buttery as MAC. I haven’t been noticing any fallout though and I was able to very easily create this eye look:





The day after I created this more natural look:



In an eyeshadow palette with two eyeshadows you get 2.7 grams or 0.09 oz of product for €19. Overall, I really like these eyeshadows and am eager to try out some more!


Have you tried INGLOT products?

INGLOT in Belgium?

That's right, INGLOT Cosmetics is coming to Belgium! Can we pleaaase do a little happy dance?

If you're reading this and you don't know INGLOT Cosmetics yet, you're definitely in for a treat. This beauty brand is right up there with brands like MAC, both in quality and price

The thing INGLOT is known for, is their Freedom System. With this system, you're entirely free to create your own eyeshadow, blush, powder, concealer or lipstick palettes. Also, the freedom palettes are magnetized and the lid of the palettes is matte but see-through. This makes it easy to know what product you're reaching for.


INGLOT was doing very well in the Netherlands and I was eagerly convincing my Dutch friends that we had to plan a trip to Amsterdam so I could take a look at the INGLOT store there. Luckily, a Belgian store will be opening in Antwerp, so the INGLOT store will be "just around the corner"!

It is still unknown when the store will be opened, but I can say that I'm VERY excited! If you won't be living close to the future Belgian store, you can find your way to the Benelux webshop that will be launched this summer!


The color pay-off of INGLOT products is exquisite and their color range is very extensive. I've finally got my hands on some INGLOT eyeshadows and I will definitely keep you up to date on how I'm experiencing the products. I'm also very curious about their blushes!




Have you ever tried products from INGLOT?
