It's not irrational. They should have made one side a little longer to serve more as a handle. I'm afraid I'll stick my finger in the shadows. I have giant hands, so I can hold it differently than most to avoid this, but I think the mirror will be useless to a lot of people since they will have a hard time holding the palette well.
Again, respect for trying something new, but.....meh!

I feel like if it could slide out and reveal the mirror that would have been more practical.

what both of you said is true. i'm sure in the beginning we'd all be more delicate with the palette, but there will come that one day we forget and gouge these babies x__x
i've been listening to more reviews/watching tutorials and it's leaving me on the fence. in some cases it looks really lovely, but then in others the pigmentation seems lacking? but then i think these are the kinds of shadows i would use a flat, stiff (possibly synthetic) brush with, so it leaves me wondering if the brushes being used are also part of why it sometimes doesn't look as nice as i thought it would... really think this is one to play with in stores.

So I received the Heavy Metals palette on 10/24/2017. I'm not entirely sure how I feel. The palette is as obnoxiously huge and bulky, as we all assumed it would be. The neutral side is absolutely lovely, creamy and smooth. The colorful side doesn't seem to be as creamy as the neutral side. I also feel like I'm being cheated by including Glamrock and Twisted on the colorful side. I think that they could have included two more "colorful" colors instead. I've not done anything other than swatch. Maybe I will feel differently after I do a full look. To be honest, if you own the Juvia's Place palettes in Masquerade, Nubian 1 and Nubian 2 you have most of these colors already.
Anyone else purchase this palette? What are your thoughts?

Woot woot! Vice lippies continue to be my FOTD lipsticks of choice! And now I am on a nude kick, so looking to add to my wardrobe.
Your post is very welcome and timely! Literally, this morning, I was just flirting with Vice lippies over on Ulta. I still have my 20% and had a few in my cart. And I have some in my Sephora list as well, for the sale next week...but this is a better deal, bringing the price down to $11.33 per bullet plus tax!

You're quite welcome! Vice lipsticks are my favorite formula, bar none.

I stuck to budget and ordered just 3: Nighthawk, Liar and Backseat (a new shade). Very happy!

Soooo I returned the palette. After writing that you could get the same colors and results from various Juvia's place palettes I decided to just use my Juvia's place palettes. A win-win situation if you really think about it. Also, the packaging is less obnoxious. I exchanged it for Tarte Toasted palette, Jaclyn Hill palette and something called the Tarte chrome paint. And just for clarity, I'm going to return the Toasted palette and get the other two colors of the chrome paints instead.

I don't know because I don't have any of the Juvia's Place boxes and It's not printed on the palettes. Also internet research says USA and China. I'm not sure what part is made where. HTH

The highlighter palette is already on the Sephora app.
Also coming out soon: All Nighter Concealer. I first saw it featured in PR boxes on a couple of Youtubers' IG Stories but didn't get any screenshots.
Here is one photo on UD's Instagram page. And a photoset, also from their Instagram.

hmmm. interesting!
i am still interested in heavy metals for who knows what reason, especially after [MENTION=50446]DILLIGAF[/MENTION] returning it. swatched it in a rush in store and it seemed pretty nice, but definitely waiting until the after holiday sale to scoop it up.
these other palettes look cool too, i wonder why UD decided to order their holiday releases like this

A little more info on the All Nighter Concealer: $29 (from what I've heard/read) for 3 ml of product, releasing on December 3.

My main reason for returning it was the palette design.
Seriously it was hard to hold and do a look without accidentally potentially gouging a color.
