I received these new L’Oreal Infallible Eyeshadows in 021 Sahara Treasure, 027 Goldmine and 024 Bronze Goddess from the L’Or L’Or L’Or collection from a love package from Vicky. Of course I had to try them right away because of all the raving that these shades have been getting on the blogsphere, and I must say they live up to those raves.
- 021 Sahara Treasure is a shimmery taupe with a white-gold sheen.
- 027 Goldmine is a sheer cool-toned gold with some larger gold glitter. This shade of gold should look good on any skintone (unless you were very, very warm) as it leans cooler and not as yellow as traditional golds.
- 024 Bronze Goddess is a dark olive-bronze with gold sheen.
The quality of these shades are incredible. They are very, very soft and creamy, and with the exception of Goldmine, also super pigmented. My favourite is Bronze Goddess as it reminds me of an eyeshadow version of Dior Czarina Gold from last year’s Dior holiday collection, which is another one of my favourites. Goldmine is much sheerer and more powdery compared to Sahara Treasure and Bronze Goddess, which are more creamy than powdery. I haven’t worn them yet but from my experience with these eyeshadows, they should be easy to apply and blend with fingers. You will probably experience fallout with Goldmine, but Sahara Treasure and Bronze Goddess should be treats to blend on the eyelid.
Overall I think these are great eyeshadows to add to your stash. You can see high resolution swatches of the rest of the L’Oreal Infallible Eyeshadow here.
A little off-focus so you can see the shimmer

Aw, Vicky and her love packages. ^^ I have “Eternal Black” and I love it! Blends so smoothly too and is sooo long lasting!
These three she sent you are so pretty! I’m totally drawn to “Bronze Godess” though. It’s gorgeous!
omgggg Bronze Goddess is freaking gorgeous! i hv Czarina Gold, love this shade 😀
I have one (picked it up from Singapore) and its beautiful! Its the green one. I hope we get them here soon or I’d have to start hunting them down one way or another 😛
These are GORGEOUS shades! must investigate!
I agree with JC! I need to investigate too!!!
I can’t stop staring at Sahara Treasure. So mesmerizing and pretty ❤
After seeing these swatches, I took advantage of Shoppers 20x the points and grabbed “Sahara Treasure” and “Gold Mine” today!
really love those I have the green one (kaki I think) eternal black (easiest smoky eyes ever!!!) and Sahara treasure. I have to say I finally understand L’Oreal offer us (Canada) different name then the States, I was looking everywhere for taupe bronze (I think it is the name in the states). They should complicate our life like this L’Oreal! :S
Found these eyeshadows on sale about 2 weeks ago and I thought I’d give them a try. I’m happy I did! I picked up the shade in Hourglass Beige and I use it almost everyday. Good quality. L’Oreal eyeshows are becoming better and better I find.
