L'oreal Infallible eyeshadow in Flashback Silver & Permanent Kaki

Watson's is having 20% discount for selected brands thus it is a good chance for me to check out the highly raved L'oreal Infallible eyeshadows.

Priced at $14.90 originally, after 20% discount (approximately $3 savings), it sounds like a pretty good deal. With testers available (the last I saw from West Coast Plaza Watsons, the testers were all gone), I zoomed down to swatch the 3 shades which caught my eye: Flashback Silver, Permanent Kaki and Forever Pink.

Honestly, the swatch of Flashback Silver came out much better than expectation and I knew I am getting this. It's a taupish-silver (taupe!!!), so how can I miss it?? I was quite torn between Permanent Kaki and Forever Pink and decided to ask BC for opinion and he immediately pick out Permanent Kaki.

In terms of texture, I would say Giorgio Armani ETK is smoother. Finishing wise, ETK is also more shimmery. However, I am still happy with L'oreal Infallible eyeshadows given that the price is extremely pocket friendly and texture is not too grainy to make it difficult to blend. Overall, this is still a good purchase. :) The only rant is the limited colour variety!!
