In Love with L'Oreal Infallible Eye Shadow in Iced Latte

The L'Oreal Infallible Eye Shadows are reputed to be the drugstore dupe of (perhaps even the same product as) the Giorgio Armani Eye Shadows. I can't comment on this since I refuse to spend $33 on an eye shadow single, but I can tell you that I am extremely impressed with the L'Oreal line.
This is supposedly a cream to shadow formula but feels more like a pressed wet pigment. True enough, it comes with a little stopper to pack the pigment in. The texture is very silky and glides on like a dream. It's delightfully pigmented. The packaging feels a little flimsy, being made of plastic, but that certainly makes it great for travel. I hate carefully packing my bags only to find that they're over the weight limit!
This is the shade Iced Latte, a very pretty shimmery champagne that is perfect as a highlight or as an overall wash. It's terribly frosty on first swatch but on the lids it looks natural and brightens them up gorgeously. I know I'm going to get a loooot of use out of this one. These swatches were applied with a finger and taken without a primer or base. There is a slightly cool gold sheen to it that I imagine would suit almost any skin tone. If applied properly, this can even be used as a face highlighter.

I wanted a little depth so I shaded in a dark purple on the outer corner (Wrapped Up from the Sleek i-Divine Oh So Special Palette). When I'm rushing and can't be bothered with the detailing of eye liner and mascara this is all I do; apply two colors with my index and pinky fingers and off I go.
With blush and lip color. I look more Asian than usual, y?
Every time I'm in a Target or CVS I have to fight the urge to buy yet another shade; these things are kind of addicting to accumulate, as you can see from my growing stash below. I won't be reviewing all these shades as I purchased some as gifts, plus I just ordered the Lorac PRO Palette and I really don't need so many eye shadows so I'll be giving even more away.

Edit: With primer, this is truly long-wearing. I applied it over Etude House's Proof 10 Eye Primer for my 12-hour train ride to Carmel, and at the end of it there was super minor fading and no creasing! Without primer and in 32-degree heat, it fades and creases within an hour or two.
I don't think these are available in the Philippines yet, but I'm sure some online sellers will have them on pre-order. Although with the death of Multiply on May 6 makeup acquisition will understandably get more difficult. The L'Oreal Infallible Eye Shadows retail for US$ 6.99 to US$ 8.29 at most drugstores. I got mine from CVS and Target (Target is cheaper).
