I love the color scheme of this and I was looking forward to buying but I need to skip it for now. I have a lot of shadow palettes already and I even have some that I haven't touched yet.

How about some real life swatches!
One swipe of the 4 glittery color-shifting shimmers, and the single shimmer in the palette.




I don't understand the funky swatches we are seeing of the glitters. I would never apply them as such.
I always use something sticky to make glitter adhere and "press" it on. Here, I dampened my finger and pressed it on my arm.

Nice swatches! Looks lovely on your skin tone too. I like the look of this palette and respect the new weird shadow formulas, but I don't need two pressed glitters or a "concealer" in a palette. Wish there were 3 more shimmers/metallics instead.

Thank you ~ And I completely agree! 3 more shimmer/ metallic shades would have been perfect. The concealer is worthless for me. And the glitters I could do without.

I essentially got this as a freebie with my Rouge reward. But it's all good. I'll kill the shimmer shades in combination with the UD Cherry, which also lacks shimmers & a diversity in light to dark shades.

You really think the concealer is worthless? I tried it with the shimmer shades and I love the way it worked. It's convenient for me to have it right there in the palette. The glitter is great but I probably won't use it or at least not in the near future. Those shimmers are amazing, though.

The concealer will dry out, be used up before the shadows, or get shadow fallout in it. That's my issue with it. Just easier to use my own separate primer/concealer and have 1 extra beautiful shadow.

I watched a YouTube vid today where the person put some clear tape over the concealer. I think that’s a cool idea but I just plan on being careful because I’m lazy.

For a nude palette, this has a lot of pink and mauve shades.

That is the reason why I pass. But I am certain she will come up with a new nude palette or something similar soon.

Ok...so I may have been hasty poo-pooing the concealer. *chuckle* I love my UDPP in Fix so much, I rarely reach for anything else. Truth is, right out of the gate, I had the same thoughts as @boschicka about it getting funky and drying out. I may try the scotch tape trick to cover it. I have only swatched it on my hand and it seemed very sheer. I will give it a try as a primer and report back.


In other news, when I acquired this palette, I also ordered the UD Naked Cherry lipstick in Devilish. I am happy to say, I love it! And it coordinates very nicely with this palette...Yup, I am that matchy matchy kinda gal!

Giving Huda a boost...new Nude palettes. I gave away her original New Nude palette. These look interesting...but shiny new always looks interesting Speaking of boost...the price on these also went up to $29.

The price went up with the NEON palettes. I think you are paying $2 more for the plastic compact instead of the cardboard. I skipped the NEON but I really want to get my hands on the Nude Medium and Nude Rich. Being able to swatch in the store will be what makes this decision or not.

Yeah, I know you're right. I'm just annoyed with where they are made. I'm having a mauve moment lately, so these are tempting, but I'm trying to avoid makeup made in China. Aren't her larger palettes made in Italy? I wish the bigger palettes didn't have goofy, glittery formulas mixed in.

 

[Icecaramellatte]

Swatched these in the store. They all showed up nicely. I even swatched the light one. I thought I would skip it but there was only one shade I wasn't crazy about. But I would probably use it. I may pick these up. I do not need these at all, nothing new to see here but I still want them.

Interesting. I am also becoming more cautious.

Those pressed glitters are what has been keeping me away from the NEW NUDE palette.

 

[Sarena]

A BIG NO to the new NUDE palette just bcz of those glitters :/ But loving the shades and formula of power bullet matte lipsticks.
I am looking for long lasting drama lashes, Any vote up for Huda's lashes?
