L'Oreal Infallible 24HR Eyeshadow Review

Hello! Today I wanted to do a review on some great shadows I have, the L'Oreal Infallible 24hr shadows. I featured one of these shadows in my Navy Smoky Eye look you can see that here :)

Ok so L'Oreal says these are 24 hour, waterproof, crease resistant and fade resistant. Now, I can't speak for the 24 hour wear or the waterproof claims, but all the rest are true. I'm not really even looking for an eyeshadow to be waterproof or last 24 hours, it seems unnessicary to me.. These shadows are awesome regardless.

Let's start with the packaging, super cute. Very sleek. Love it.

Next the shadow itself, it is a pressed pigment and it's probably the softest eyeshadow I've ever encountered. When I first swatched one, I was amazed. They're so soft and blendable and just all around great quality.

With A Twist & Bronzed Taupe.

Midnight Blue & Glistening Garnet


Ahh! Do you see how beautiful these are! They're all so pigmented and shimmery. The obvious different one is With A Twist, its a little more sheer but it's such a unique color from any that I own. It looks beautiful over matte black shadow, hmm tutorial idea?! :)

One thing I wanted to talk about that I touched on in my Navy eye look was these apply better with your fingers, IMO. You can totally make them work with a brush, I just think it's a lot easier to use your finger.

This line of shadows has such a range of color, I think there is about 20, give or take. I know I've seen a few new ones in the drugstore recently.

I hope you enjoyed this little review! I really love these shadows and plan on picking up a few more in the future. They are a little on the pricey side..anywhere from 7-9 dollars is what I usually see them for, but they are totally worth it! Do you on any of these eyeshadows?!

Thanks so much for reading!

  2. The only one of these I have is Glistening Garnet, and I don't reach for it often because it's more of a color for a certain mood for me...but I love the formula! I really need to get my hands on some more of these!

    1. Yes they are really great! I know what you mean, I have to be feeling feisty to wear it but it creates such a beautiful smoky eye with a little black shadow!

  3. I've always wanted to try some of these but just never have because I have so much eye shadow. Your review totally makes me want to go get some because of the beautiful colors!! Have you tried to apply them with a damp brush instead of dry?

  4. I always shy away from these because of the price point for ONE color, but these shades do look so gorgeous.
