Like their shadows alot, good color payoff... cannot effing *abide* the smell of their lip products... and many of their products (incl.their lippies) have mineral oil which is just yuck.

it's important as makeup artist not to stick to one specific makeup brand like some people do. just one little thing (they've been around for 26 years in poland not 15) hehe...anyway, before replying to any comments in RE: to inglot make sure not to say anything negative based on just your personal opinion. go to the store, try the products and see for yourself, it's a great company with good quality products that won't cost a fortune

hey,
yep they do give a student discount. you just need to go to one of the locations and fill out a form. also when you go there, make sure you have a photocopy of photo i.d, a photocopy of your student transcript/schedule, etc, and even a photocopy of your student i.d as well. there's no cost to you and it's valid until you graduate or for one year. whichever comes first. also...the discount is 30% which is pretty sweet!

any questions just ask

Re: Inglot

I am really curious about this brand as we have just had one open in Melbourne, but it's a 45 min drive for me. Does anyone have pictures of any of the eyeshadows etc I am interested in some of the brighter coloured ones.

Wow a lot of those colours look very similar to mac ones! I would love to see what the colour pay off is like.

kk I'll be home in two days so I should be able to get some up on Thursday or Friday. I'm currently in Vancouver with only two MAC shadows and none of my Inglot stuff.

Okay so here are my swatches... Hopefully this works.
I'm NW20 for reference and everything was taken with flash in natural light. Each colour was swiped up once and down once with a clean brush. I used Passionate from MAC to just show as a comparison (It was the first MAC shadow I grabbed)





Umm if anyone wants any other swatches I can do that too. I have two other Inglot shadows that aren't pictured in the swatches or the pallette.

Oh and 064, 018, 038, 045, and 990 are metalics. 944, 091, 924, 095, 094 are shimmery. The rest are matte.

094 is amazing I wear it a lot. 991 is orangey but not as orange as MAC orange. It's still pretty awesome though

Re: Inglot

If you did your research like a good makeup artist, you would know that Inglot was created at least 3 years prior to MAC.
I actually went into a store and asked questions about their product and have fallen in love with it. In regards to what these girls wear... I am a makeup artist and have worn black for most counters I have worked for.. Is Armani, Presciptives, Bobbi Brown, Shiseido, Lancome and countless others copying MAC as well? I'm also a musician... we wear black. Am I copying MAC when on stage performing Beethoven?? You might be pleasantly suprised at the quality of Inglot's products. I used a pencil eyeliner and it stayed on longer than any MAC liner I've ever used. While I love the work MAC does for fundraising for assisting the lives of people who suffer from HIV and AIDS through Viva Glam, I am personally dissapointed in the decline of their product since being taken over by Estee Lauder. I'm sure that you are aware that MAC fluidline is using the same formula as Bobbi Brown's gel liner? All I can say is do your research before you open your mouth.

The whole design is arranged like at MAC's with black, very minimal packaging...The "artists" too are are suppose to dress in black like at MAC....This store started out in Polland I think, and is now spreading EVERYWHERE in North America....You can sure bet the people at MAC are pissed....Its a total copy of every concept MAC has ever thought of...I'm not sure if people are buying into it but it's annoying to see what an "inyourface" copy of MAC this new "professional" makeup brand is...

Inglot has brushes, is less expensive than MAC and the pigments in the shadows are actually better quality. They last all day even if someone gets shiny throughout the day. Inglot has been around longer than MAC as well. Inglot also welcomes product suggestions from makeup artists. Products are made to order and don't sit on a shelf in a warehouse so I think that is a bonus for the consumer. I think you should give the line a chance without bias. I love MAC but I won't stock my kit with as much as their products anymore after finding Inglot. I think that everyone knows that a good artist uses products from all lines and not just one.

I don't see why someone can't have a negative opinion on Inglot without being called a staunch defender of MAC and a basher or all other cosmetic lines. I use products from other lines as well, but I also wasn't impressed by Inglot when I was in their store. They are trying to go for a more high end look but the stuff is basically drugstore quality. It was even sold in inexpensive drugstore chains in Switzerland for a while. I didn't like the products...

If someone doesn't like Inglot that is fine. I just felt like that other MUA didn't give it a chance. There are many lines of makeup I don't like and others do but at least I've tried it. I also don't call them copycats of other lines. I went in the other day and asked what was in their cosmetics and they readily gave me an ingredients list. I've used the Inglot priodcts on many people and they have all commented that they will buy our foundations over other high end brands because it feels softer and doesn't irritate their skin.
You're entitled to your opinion and I'm entitled to mine. I at least did research into the company before talking about it. That's all. I think it was obvious that she is a staunch defender of MAC because she advertised her counter at MAC at some the mall she works at. THat is poor taste and I hope she is reprimanded for it.

Just bumping this because an Inglot store has opened up just around the corner from me.

Im wondering about the quality of the products Vs high end brands like MAC etc.

Im about to start at college for makeup art and I will be needing to build up a kit in the coming months. Is this stuff good enough for work like formals, proms, bridal etc? What about photography? Personally I like the sutff from what Ive seen but Im not a pro (yet) and would like a more educated oppinion.

Any an all help would be fantastic.

i just found a store in greenpoint, brooklyn, ny that sells Inglot. i purchased 2 shadows, each for 5 dollars US. i think that they are pretty good. the colors are nice and pigmented. and the price is pretty good too. i'd like to try the polishes, next time i'm in ny i'll give it a try.

anyone know if they can be ordered online anywhere? i'm not having luck with google searches.

Well I bit the bullet and went in to buy some stuff. I got myself 3 of their pigments and their foundation primer.

Ive got to say Im really impressed with the quality of the products I bought. The pigments are gorgeous on and unlike MAC pigments they dont irritate, burn or leave my lids flakey. And theyve got a pretty close dupe to my fave pigment - rose, so on that front Im a convert.

Their primer is good too. It does everything a good primer should do and it doesnt have the sparkles that Prep&Prime has, its also almost $20 cheaper (Aussie prices). So again a convert.

Im heading back in on payday to pick up a brush belt I ordered for college($50 for one that looks EXACTLY the same as the MAC one) and to have a look at their lipsticks and nail polishes. They didnt have the lippies I was interested in stock when I was there last but I did try some other shades and the texture along with the staying power was great. I might even try their foundations when Im out of my SFF.

No doubt i'll report back once Ive tried some more products.
