Thanks. They don't seem to be available on the US site. I'll check again later.

Same here! I realized I had a $20 kickback, so I decided to go for it.

That's awesome - hard to resist with a kickback. This order pushed me over $300, so I'll have one to use later this year once my order ships.
They've taken everything but the palette (for pre-order only, the early release have sold out) down from the Canadian site. My order still says 'Being Processed'; I hope there isn't a problem. I thought they were doing same day delivery; that's what the early e-mail said. Maybe that was Montreal only though; I'm in the Toronto area.

Missed it. I did hear about it on my break but was perusing the site for the other products and the palette sold out on me. I never did see the other products up. I did sign up to be notified when it was available but did not receive an email. When it sold out I decided to sign up again for notification only to be told I was already on the notification list. So what happened? Oh well, I prefer to get everything at once if I can. I can wait.

I purchased the new palette yesterday morning. I'm so excited for it to come in! I commented a few days ago saying I was back-and-forth about this (mostly due to those sorry Allure swatches), but I think it will be a winner. Also, I signed up for their Beauty Junkie program when I first heard about the early release and put my bday in as June. My real bday is in September, but I like to space things out throughout the year lol. Anyway, the bday gift was a full size of Afterglow powder in Sin, so I'm excited for that to come in too!

That's a good idea to put a different birthday. When my birthday month comes, many places offer perks but I need to place an order to get it and it is just too much to take advantage of all the offers in one month so I end up missing out on many good deals.

That was exactly my thought process. When September rolled around I couldn't place such a large amount of orders in a 30 day window so I started spacing it out instead. Also if you can space it around when you know they get new products or have events/deals (ulta 21 days of beauty) or know when they have sales (like Express has 40% off around Memorial Day) and you typically buy stuff anyway that sweetens it as well.

My order just arrived - I absolutely LOVE the palette. I only did quick finger swatches, but I had no trouble getting plenty of pigmentation from any of the shades. This palette is just gorgeous. I'm so glad I got it. Modern Renaissance arrived yesterday - I'm wearing a pinker look now. I'm not sorry I got both; there may be a couple of similar shades, but the palettes are nowhere near dupes.
I also got Alkaline, Fuel and Scorched and love them all. Alkaline is a great shade; I love the 24/7 formula and I have no near dupes of this. Fuel reminds me of a peachier version of MAC Kinda Sexy. It's great right out of the tube for me. Scorched is beautiful - I was worried it would be too metallic for me, but unless I really slather it on that's not an issue at all.
I cannot remember the last time I loved a collection this much - it was tailor made for my skintone. I skipped Heat l/s because I learned my lesson about grit with MAC Caliente (BTM'd almost a full tube) and I don't think I'd wear the terra cotta liner much. I can use a matte shadow from the palette and get a similar look under my lower lash line if I'm so inclined.
Two other orders arrived today - eep! I think I better put myself on hiatus until after my July and October trips. I've bought quite a lot this spring between MAC Fruity Juicy, Bobbi Brown, NARS and now UD.

I'm so glad you like it. Mine should arrive tomorrow. I have MR and other than them both being warm, they aren't dupes at all, especially since the formulas as so different. I have alkaline and fuel on my list for when they're released at the end of the month.

I hope you like yours as well. I wonder if they only released the full collection in Canada while the palette was still in stock; when I went back later that day, the other items had been pulled and the palette was pre-order only.
I'm almost second guessing myself on Heat lipstick, but I have MAC Dare You and that looks pretty close.

Thank you for posting about it! My palette arrives tomorrow and I am so excited for every shade. I may get Alkaline when it comes out in store as well.

I couldn't wait to break out my new goodies this morning! 
On my eyes, I used Chaser over the full lid and Ounce on the browbone. I used Sauced and Low Blow as transition shades, and deepened the outer corner with Ashes (love that shade). There aren't a lot of lighter shades in the palette and I prefer using those to brighten things up, so I added MAC Naked Lunch on the inner corner and MAC Goldmine on the inner 1/3 of my lid. Going back to Naked Heat, I used Lumbre in the middle lid, and finally Scorched on the outer 1/3 of the lid. Alkaline liner on the upper lash line and UD Scorch liner on the lower.
I always use lip liners for definition; UD Manic is a good complement to Fuel lipstick. Some old favourites on cheeks (MAC My Paradise and Dior Amber Diamond) and I have a great everyday wearable look. Don't be put off by the very dark orange looks that are all over instagram; I would wear this in my conservative corporate office.

I'm using the Naked Heat palette for this first time todau and am really impressed. I wonder if they changed the formula for the matte shadows - these blended much more easily than UD mattes that I've tried in the past. This palette is perfect for someone looking for a warm palette.
I have the Viseart Warm Mattes and Natasha Denona Sunset and think it will be easier for me to get a complete look from Naked Heat. I rarely do an all matte eye so I always have to reach for a shimmer shadow from another palette when I'm using the Warm Mattes. The ND Sunset palette is exceptional but it doesn't have a lighter non-orangey crease or transition color that I like to use. The UD palette is the best of both worlds.

I love my palette too! I used it this morning and am wearing it to work...definitely can be used for work and play both. Also, I know people are saying that it doesn't have enough lighter colors but I used Lumbre on the lid and a touch of Ounce in the center of the lid and it's definitely light enough. No qualms with this palette at all.
