L'Oreal HIP Shadow Duo in #538 Flamboyant
Rating: 5
Price: 4
Packaging: 5
Would you Repurchase? Yes


Comments:
I bought this because of all the comments on MUA. They are a great value - can often be found buy one get one free, or other sales. If you purchase these at a Walgreens always ask the makeup counter if they have coupons. Often times they do.
This one is nicely pigmented and two wearable shades (Gold on one side, and a purple on the other). Also these have a little compartment that snaps down on the bottom to reveal a mirror and two little useless brushes. The mirror is still a nice touch for the price I thought.
A picture of this and swatches can be seen on my MUA profile ReesaRN23. Also Smiles4C has done some great FOTDs using these duos and can be seen at : http://www.xanga.com/smiles4c

I like the gold side of flamboyant it's really pretty with a sheen. the purple is fine when you looking for a wash of color.

The golden side is fabulous but the purple side comes off a little more magenta/purple on me and the texture of it SUCKS. I never use the purple side but I love the other side. The golden side is worth the purchase imo, especially if there's a sale.

Would you Repurchase? Yes, and I have.

I mostly love it for the golden yellow side, which I actually bought to replace a MAC yellow I own because I didn't like it's texture. I'm glad I did, too. It's really pigmented and shows up with little to no effort. The purple side isn't bad, but also isn't very vibrant and tends to go on kind of chalky and uneven for me. I don't use it much at all.
