L'oreal Color Infallible Eyeshadow - Page 7

Innocent Turquoise on lid, Lotusland in crease, Heirloom eye kohl upper lashline, Siahi fluidline lower lashline.

Shadow Sleep, Javan Rhino and Digital Faerie are Fyrinnae.

Forever Pink is Pink Sapphire in the US, correct?

Anyone still looking for Gold Imperial or Gleaming Bronze?

That's correct.  Forever Pink is the international version of Pink Sapphire.

I own Goldmine (Canadian version) but have been on the hunt for Gleaming Bronze. Might have found it's Canadian counterpart online. Are you still able to find those at your local stores?

All of the different International versus US names confuse me. I must have bookmarked at least 4 posts re: the naming of these products, haha.

That was an informative (and lemming generating!) link!  thanks to this thread I have discovered the joy of these eyeshadows.  the only let down for me was Smouldering Plum, which lacked the panache of these others I have tried and led me to really seek out new colors.  I got the most compliments when I wore Eternal Black (I think that was the name)  but my favorite was the first one I tried, Bronzed Taupe.  These lasted all day on me without removal (about 13 hours) until I took them off.  There was very minimal fading (I wore a MAC Paint as a base) and creasing at about 12 hours but otherwise I agree with the claim that they last and last with vibrant color and little creasing.  I wonder if I had no base on if it would have affected the creasing but I am sure others will post that.  I am trying Amber Rush today with powder e/s over it and Mary Kay eye primer to see if that affects the longevity and creasing.

Thanks to everyone who has posted about these.  Wondering if anyone has made a note of which ones have the most vibrant color (multidimensional or duochrome effect?)

So far I have tried Amber Rush (very similar to Sweet Heat), Eternal Black (gorgeous), Bronzed Taupe (the perfect neutral), Smouldering Plum (flat, disappointing) and I have Endless Pearl to try.  I have been eyeballing *Something* Sage, the teal one, the hot pink one and now I want a vibrant purple but the purple swatch I like I don't think came out in the US.

I finally got my International Infallibles that I won on eBay! I thought I would give a swatch comparison of Canada's Permanent Kaki (yes, that is how it is spelled), and US's Golden Sage. They are pretty damn similar (shucks for me lol!)

Permanent Kaki on the left, Golden Sage on the right:

They're pretty much dupes!!! If I had to point out one difference, it would be that Golden Sage seemed much easier to work with when swatching them on my arm! Permanent Kaki seemed a little dryer (I didn't use a base or anything with these on application). Aside from that, I feel that if you own PK or GS, you do not need the other one. They're the same color.

Ah, yes. I believe that was on one of the US/International lists floating around. Luckily it's a lovely color haha. 

I finally caved in and bought four this week! Ulta has buy two get one free deal with L'Oreal so I got Endless Pearl, Continuous Cocoa and Eternal Black. I also visited WalMart and got Liquid Diamond! I'm eye-ing on Bottomless Java (keep telling myself I don't need it since there might be something close in the Urban Decay Naked palette) and Amber Rush (kept telling myself MAC Sweet Heat is close)..  LOL

 Amber Rush is my most used Infallible to date...  And I also have SH.  I'll try to compare them for you.  But I CAN tell you the texture of AR is TO DIE FOR!!  VERY smooth and blendable!

Liquid Diamond is a STUNNER as well!  Welcome to the Infallible World!!

Definitely look at the database I posted on pg 6, can't be buying the same color from 2 countries! 

Naughty Strawberry must be owned by all!!! Forget Pink Sapphire/Forever Pink. That color is lame compared to NS. Oh and NS with that Maybelline Fuchsia Fever tattoo....TO DIE FOR!!! Oh and again lol Test My Teal tattoo(base) with Innocent Turquoise(inner/half lid) and Perpetual Flame(outer half/v) = perfect birds of paradise look!

TheLadyDanger....get. them. all. See that was easy lol.

Now I am spoiled though, and I refuse to buy unless there is a BOGO or some other coupon or discount.  I would love to find a lot on ebay for all the colors I want.  Mainly, I want the garnet one, the sage one, the turquoise one (but I may get the MAC teal shadow instead) and the Marshmallow one.

I played with the ones I bought after! I couldn't stop touching them -- the texture is so unique compared to other drugstore eye shadows I've bought! Any recommendations what to pair Liquid Diamond with? I notice the silver color leans towards a slight purple-ish.

I will probably end up getting Amber Rush just for the sake of having it in my collection.. LOL!

It is indeed easy.. LOL! Even easier when you've got a deal of buy two get one free plus a few dollars off. Bad habit!

Naughty Strawberry sounds interesting! I've been on a pink eye shadow obsession since MAC's In Extra Dimension collection came out with Young Venus. I sadly passed on Young Venus and am now regretting it..

I'm so jealous right now, I only have two of these :D
Hopefully my collection will grow :)
337 and 557 are my favourites, I like bright colours :)

Since that pic, my collection DOUBLED. i now own 12. And that is NOTHING compared to some of the the other girls around here. They dance around my little stash! I want some of the colors from Europe but I'm waiting on the right price

They're Buy2Get1Free at Ulta. Free shipping for orders over $25 w/ code 88250. You can use it on the US shades you want. 

In addition to the macnunu database, someone on the EC thread posted this as well:

Interesting that it lists Naughty Strawberry as being the same as Glistening Garnet. I feel GG appears to be darker and more fuschia than NS

Yeah that is definitely wrong. Macnunu is the most accurate when it comes to dupes within the brand.

I need more color lol. Still adore all that I have but when are they coming out with more shades! I'm being impatient here!

Whoa this thread has taken off. Glad to see you ladies loving these shadows I can't put them down. At least one makes it into my eyeshadow look daily. Lately its been Glistening Garnet on the lower lash line. 

I think I saw somewhere or heard can't remember now that these were dupes for Eyes to Kill shadows any truth to that? Or anyone own some of those to compare.

I've been hunting down the color tattoos to pass time, but I really want to see if they're promoting fall Infallible shades in the US

Just PM'd you doll!

I stopped by Ulta today and picked up two of these shadows. The deal now is buy one, get one 50% off. I also used a coupon for $3.50 off $10+ purchase. I got Endless Sea and Smoldering Plum. Um, now what? How do you apply them?

A liner, highlight, crease color, lid color...all options. You can use a dense shader brush, wet or dry. Using them as a liner would be best wet.

So something like the MAC 239 brush?
