Inglot Eyeshadow Review: AMC Shine 30, AMC 51, DS 477, DS478, Pearl 429, Pearl 403, AMC Shine 41, DS 504, AMC Shine 05, AMC 67

Hi peoples. So... tomorrow is the Makeup Show NYC :D and I'm... nervous... :/ Not that anyone will be like "hey you're that girl with that tiny little blog" xD but um... idk... I get nervous when I go to big events where there's gonna be a lot of people ALONE. But hey, I've "braved" two years of IMATS, this can't kill me XD Besides, I'm excited for the forums/lectures :D 
Anywho... with the mention of IMATS, I introduce to you the first Inglot palette that I bought at IMATS 2011.  I believe the palette was in the realm of $50, but I don't remember how much I paid for it :/
Availability:Inglot eyeshadows are available online at inglotusa.com and in physical Inglot store locations. As of May 2020, the pricing per shadow is as follows - regular shades are $8 each. The shades have varying volumes of shadow included, which is based on the color - for further detail I highly suggest inglot.com as everything is spelled out for you there. The empty 10-pan palette can be purchased for $16. You are not limited to just eyeshadow, as they sell multiple other makeup products that are designed to fit the palette (i.e.: face highlighters, brow powder, lipstick)
Would I buy these again?: You bet I would! Inglot offers amazing quality for the price.
Notes: I'll speak about the quality of the products before I show you more detailed photos of the colors, all of Inglot's shadows are incredibly pigmented and smooth. Their mattes are soft, buttery and blend like a dream. Their pearls are smooth and buttery too. Plus, Inglot has one of the most unique finishes ever, called D.S. or double-sparkle, these are matte shadows with pretty glitter particles throughout. I am in love. My only pet peeve with the eyeshadows is that they tend to be really dusty (when you pick them up), but there are some tricks to pick them up in order to cut down on how much dust they kick up. I did depot and move some shadows around, hence the un-beautiful dents and cracks some of the have. :/ Alrighty then, here comes the fun: 
AMC Shine 30 is a beautiful cream tone, it appears white in the pan but has a very strong flash of white-gold to it. It's also got a very subtle pink glow and silver shimmers. At the time, I didn't have a color like this that had a good texture and this is wonderfully silky and buttery. It's a great highlight or lid-brightening shade.
AMC 51 is an intense Sunkist/carroty orange. The base of it is matte and it has silver sparkles throughout. Although the sparkles are kind of prominent in the pan, they don't really show up on the skin.
D.S. 477 is a beautiful matte chartreuse base that's loaded with golden sparkles. 
D.S. 478 is a beautiful matte, Cinderella blue with subtle blue, pink, and silver sparkles.
Pearl 429 looks very bland in my swatch. :/ In real life it is a gorgeous cornflower blue with a pearl finish. I really dig it, it's kind of a nice tranquil color that reminds me of the sky just after sunrise, when it's just turned blue... very pretty :3
Pearl 403 is an intense pearly yellow-gold.
AMC Shine 41 is a pearly chartreuse that leans heavily yellow - in fact when paired with certain colors it looks more yellow or golden than green.
D.S. 504 is a deep, intense green-ish teal. It reminds me of seaweed for some reason even though seaweed isn't really this color. This has a matte base and has pretty silver and pink shimmers in it. :)
AMC Shine 05 is an effing stunning, amazing, gorgeous pearly teal that you can tell that I love xD There was a shade I got in a Too Faced palette that was very similar to this and I had a really hard time finding a good dupe. The thing is... I wanted the exact color, not something similar, because to me this is just so darn beautiful and I love how it kind of alters my eye color, making it seem warm and amber-red. Funny thing is, I brought it home, swatched the colors next to one another, and liked this one more... which hadn't happened up until that point. :P
AMC 67 is a color I picked up because I wanted something dark and purple-y. This is an intense, dark matte violet (although my swatch looks watered down... this is mega pigmented :/) with silver, pink, and blue microshimmer. It photographed lighter than it is in real life. In real life it kind of reminds me of the night sky. This shade has been discontinued. 

Please let me know if you have any questions or comments. :) Thanks!
