Does anyone know why Anastasia's IG keeps posting/reposting pictures of their other Glow Kits (Gleam, That Glow, etc.) when they're currently not in stock anywhere? Is a future replenishment on the way or something?

is it selfish of me to hope that it's a rouge only perk?
hehe. It's just that I feel we don't get enough of those as VIBRs. I wish Sephora would revamp their rewards program.

Nope!
Mine! Mine! Mine! And Yes, I agree! It's the frickin hunger games trying to redeem any points! It Sucks!

Well! I nabbed it. Was nervous the 24-48 hour pre-release would sell out ASAP due to all the IG hype, so I set an alarm for 3am EST / 12 am PST. It launched shortly after that. Got it and the Cover Fx Halo drops! Can't waiiiiiiiiit!
The ABHxNicole kit is showing up for me in the app and I'm a VIB. As of the time of this post, it's still in stock.
The odd thing is, I went to look at the reviews, and it seems like many people are leaving "reviews" when they don't even have the palette. More "I'm excited/can't wait to get it" comments than anything. I've never seen that happen before with any other product.

I believe I've seen it before with the Jaclyn Hill Champagne Pop. (But it was a lot of negative reviews because it didn't launch exactly at the advertised time.)
I'm glad people are excited but it's a bit frustrating and annoying because now when people actually review it, it'll stay artificially inflated for a while.

It happens pretty frequently with the more anticipated products like Kat Von D releases. I've seen people post how excited they are, complain about release times....anything other than reviews.

It was super annoying when this happened with the TF quads that released the day after VIB Rouge could use their discount. It got pretty ridiculous actually and went on for weeks!
You'd think Sephora would have someone in charge of filtering out those types of posts by now.

I have seen that some of those reviews have been deleted in the past, but I don't know if that's only after people complain or Sephora is getting better at catching them eventually.

Wearing the Nicole palette for the first time today so I thought I'd share my first impressions.
• The colors are all really pretty. If you can't use one of the shades as a highlighter, it can be a blush topper or eyeshadow.
• I'm wearing 3 of the shades today and they all have some degree of microglitter. I have the 2 gold colors on my lids and the glitter really doesn't show at all. Daydream is on my cheeks as a topper and that seems to have more noticeable glitter. Having said that, I do find the colors not to be too 'sparkly'.
• The lightest shade can be mixed with the other colors to tone them down a bit.
• From what I had seen on You Tube, I expected them to be much more metallic. With a light hand, you can get a more natural finish. I don't think you'd ever get a subtle glow from this palette but it is still wearable and you won't look like a walking disco ball!
All in all, it's a very versatile palette. For $40, you get 6 colors that can be used as highlighters, blush toppers, and eyeshadow. I'm on the fence about keeping mine - I need to play with this more. My only hesitation is that I have many highlighters and really don't need this.

I am still playing this weekend with mine. I have swatched all the shades on my face and like it but today I will swatch after my full foundation routine. I like how all of the shades compliment each other and you can mix and match. Sundipped is my ultimate favorite kit and that is the one I reach for the most.

Estee Edit Glow (highlighter side of the Gritty & Glow Palette) vs. NG x ABH
I just wanted to post this comparison, because some were not jazzed about the glitter fallout/microglitter in the new ABH.
I forgot I already had the Glow palette and to me they are a very close match in shades minus the glitter. The Glow palette is refined and smooth, not powdery, and works well both on face and as eye shadow...which is primarily what I would use the colors of the NG x ABH palette for.
