Lorac Pro To Go Professional Eye Collection

The Lorac Pro To Go Professional Eye Collection ($36) is a limited edition selection of Lora Pro products that include a new Pro To Go Eyeshadow Quad, Pro Brushes, Lorac Pro Mascara, and a sleek carrying case for it all. This set is available exclusively at Ulta and Ulta.com for the Fall 2013 season and for fans of Lorac well, it’ll probably be a must.

Take a peek!

Lorac Pro To Go Set

I absolutely adore Lorac’s little sets and kits and there’s no exception with the Lorac Pro To Go Professional Eye Collection. Now…I will say for long time fans of the brand the colors in this collection might be a little repetitive as I do see a shade or two that’s very similiar to pass releases like the Lorac Private Affair Eyeshadow Palette as well as the Lorac Pro Palette.

Outside of the similarities in the eyeshadow colors this is a nice intro set for folks who haven’t really dipped their toes in the Lorac pool.

You get a nice black leather clutch with your purchase which doubles up as a makeup roll of sorts as it contains a mirror and tiny little pockets to hold all of the contents of the set. So if you’re off on a trip to Vegas for the weekend or elsewhere this houses all the essentials to create a sultry eye look!

Inside you’ll find a Pro To Go Eyeshadow Palette with four eyeshadows in Ivory, Rose, Spice, and Aubergine. Lorac’s eyeshadows typically have a very light, silky feel. They blend easily onto lids and create a lovely wash of color. I typically recommend eyeshadow primer with Lorac’s formula as it intensifies the pigment of the shades and allows them to wear longer as due to their thinner texture they sometimes wear away as the day progresses so give them something good to adhere to and you’ll be fine for all day wear. Typically I find Lorac eyeshadow is fantastic on aging or finely lined eyes as it’s so soft and delicate without overpowering your look with too much pigment or a cakey texture.

Also included in the set are three very handy Pro Brushes. You get a liner brush, eyeshadow brush, and blending brush. These have strong handles, soft yet dense bristles, and are shed free. They basically give you all the essentials you’ll need to create an eye look so if you’re traveling you won’t have to be overwhelmed with what eyeshadow brushes to take with you. This includes three basic and essential brushes.

You’ll also get a Lorac Pro Mascara which is a full size. This has a tapered design and a heavy black pigmentation. The formula is very light and creates fluttery length with a fair bit of volume as well. I didn’t experience issues with it smudging, fading, or flaky and it wore strongly all day. I’m sorry but I somehow misplaced the before and after images using this and will update this post later today to show photos.

Overall, the Lorac Pro To Go Professional Eye Collection is a perfect selection of products to travel with. The shades in the quad will be repetitive for fans of the Lorac brand but this is a perfect intro set for those who are newer fans. Or even if you just want a basic set to travel with this is an essential selection to create a lovely sultry look without a ton of effort or know how.

About the Muse

Isabella MuseIsabella is just an average everyday geeky girl who doesn’t blend her eyeshadow correctly, wears too much blush, and hopes she never finds her holy grail products because she likes the thrill of the chase so much. Her mission is to bring you super honest reviews on makeup, skincare, fragrance and all things beauty. She’s in no way an expert on the topic and she sure as hell isn’t a super model. But she’s passionate about makeup and is seeking like-minded individuals that like pina coladas, getting caught in the rain, and ones that enjoy spending hundreds of dollars at Sephora without feeling buyer’s remorse.

    Oh, Muse, that is very pretty look!
    Curious minds want to know, what are you wearing on your lips? So lovely!

    • the Muse

      thanks!!!!!!!! you’re too kind Michelle. It’s a review coming today of the new Gurlain Rouge Madam Batifole

  • Stephanie A.

    Ooooo I love the colors! I have yet to try anything Lorac, so maybe this will push me to try it haha

  • Christina

    I cannot tell you how many times I’ve picked this up and put it back down. It’s a great deal, I love Lorac, but the colors didn’t grab me (outside of the Aubergine). But your swatches are beautiful. I have quite a bit of Lorac (just got the Dazzling Dozen collection this week, too) but I may weaken next time I’m at Ulta. Sigh.

    • the Muse

      how’d you like your dazzling dozen? I NEED it 😀 This one was a bit uneventful for Lorac…the colors are a little too repetitive for me as I own a lot of the brand.

  • Christina

    Ooo I love the Dazzling Dozen! Nice mix of finishes and colors and great price. Did I mention that my favorite four letter word is SALE?

    I’m starting to accumulate quite a Lorac collection of eye shadows myself and I think you are right that the colors are repetitive. As I said I love the Aubergine in the Pro To Go Palette, but I think I have it in either the Pro Palette or maybe the Private Affair palette.

    • the Muse

      LOL ;-D AGREED i love that word ;-D def have a few of these already so you do have to be careful with lorac sometimes..! but outside from that I adore the brand! can’t wait to see what turns up for the holidays!

  • telle

    i *love* the rose color! gorgeous! and has a fantastic finish on your eyes, Muse!! and looks great with guerlain lippie!

  • Pam

    I love the way it’s packaged, and that it includes essential brushes making it a great kit for travel. Lorac’s sets are always such a great value. In this kit however, only the Aubergine speaks to me.

  • Elle

    OMG. love the rose shade!! Someone please help to find me a dupe ASAP! I’ll love you forever 0:-)
