I was pretty disappointed in last year's palette - it seems like pretty much everyone was! It was like they rushed it to get it out and there were so many shadows that just didn't perform. That purple glittery one, my lord. It was a gritty, unpigmented mess! I should have just returned the damn thing, but I literally have every other palette so I didn't want it to be missing from my collection. What a ridiculous thing that is, isn't it? LOL

At least with the Urban Decay stuff, it usually sticks around for a little while so you don't feel so rushed to get it. The Vice 3 palette is still available on the UD website. I like the look of the new Kat Von D palette, but I may pass. I've never been super impressed with the eye shadow formula in the holiday palettes. The Monarch/Interstellar/Shade & Light formula seems different and I like those.
That's good to know. I'll keep that in mind and make sure to swatch the shadows before I decide to buy the palette.

Some palettes are like Pokémon: Gotta catch em all! ha.

I'm like that with Urban Decay.

It looks like this holiday palette has a lot of mattes (unless it just looks like that in the pictures lol) so I'm hoping it's the better quality shadows. The last thing I want is to be excited for all these bright colors and have them all be chalky!

Piaf came! It's not a color I would normally wear, but I definitely don't hate it. I can totally the purple in it which I'm happy about, and it's not as chocolate brown on me as I was worried about. Definitely a unique color to say the least - I will post pics as soon as I can!

Oh that purple glittery one was so awful! Just a total mess of a glitterbomb. I did like the other colors though esp the glittery black. I don't think the whole palette was bad just that one shade.

Was so excited seeing Lolita liquid lippie in stock at my local sephora. Swatched it. Turned totally brown on me just like the "bad batch." I passed.!

Yeah I ordered it online the other day and it's pretty brown on me too looks like double dare but double dare is a lot pinker.

Same!! I still ordered it because I know I'll just lust over it again when it goes OOS -__- I'm sick.

My Coven is soooo dry. It was the first of the new formula lipsticks that I ordered and it made me not want more of them. Then I got the holiday set last year and they were all awesome, not super dry like that one. SO when the new colors came out, I figured why not, and ordered Piaf. I've noticed it's a lot better than my Coven was, so maybe it varies from shade to shade?

Not in my experience. They're all equally drying. The formula in the minis from that set is identical, imo, to the formula of the full size ones.

My minis were very creamy and a dream to work with, too! I read T's review that she found the new ones wayyy better than the originals in terms of formula.

I have a problem with dry lips even with stuff that is described as creamy such as the NARS Audacious lipsticks. So imagine my lips when I put KVD lipsticks on! It's sometimes so miserable I have to take my makeup off early. But her colors are SO pretty, and I have a zillion of her lipsticks. I do love them. I wish there was a way to get a truly matte lip that was moisturizing. Bite beauty's matte lip crayon comes the closest.

The minis were the thing that gave me hope for them to end up being better in full size form! lol I had given up on them until that point!

I looked at some of the lipsticks in store today. I almost bought Ayesha but lighter purples make me nervous. The tester for Exorcism was basically empty. As soon as I can I'm picking it up. It looked stunning. That and Nosferatu are on my definite list. Y'all can just pretend I didn't say what I did before :p
