The Perfect Summer Eyeshadow

L'Oreal Infallible Eyeshadow Amber Rush

I love every Infallible eyeshadow I own. They're smooth, creamy, easy to apply and the best part? They're affordable! 

The Infallible shadows are almost a cross between a loose pigment and pressed eyeshadow. They come with a little lid to keep the shadow pressed together. Helpful hint: don't throw away that lid - it serves a purpose! 

Fun fact: they're uncannily similar to Georgio Armani's Eyes to Kill Intense Eyeshadows. The formula, the packaging, everything is a dupe! The Armani shadows retail around $34 and the L'Oreal can be found around $8. Both Armani and L'Oreal are actually owned by the same parent company, The L'Oreal Group! So save yourself some money and stick with the Infallible shadows!


It seems like I've featured Amber Rush a lot lately, but it's so great it deserves its own post! This is without a doubt my most used summer eyeshadow. Don't get me wrong, it's amazing no matter what the season, but this shade in particular is just so perfect for summer. This shade is versatile and will look amazing on every skin tone and eye color. 


 Not only does it look great on everyone, the finish looks so effortless yet the metallic effect still adds a little something special. You can apply easily with your finger or for a super metallic finish, spray your brush with MAC Fix + as shown in my Go-To Summer Makeup Routine. I've used Amber Rush religiously every summer since the Infallible shadows came out. It's hands down a favorite!

What's YOUR favorite summer eyeshadow?
