I have both the Sephora palette and the Smashbox set. I was underwhelmed by both of them but I have a lot of makeup across a lot of brands. The Sephora palette has decent shimmery shades but nothing incredibly unique. The matte shades are a little lacking and not buttery smooth. I think you could spend the $32 toward something better. I bought the Smashbox set mainly for the eyeshadows b/c I really enjoy their shadows. Sadly these are not a good representation of their usual quality. I haven't tried the mascara or eyeliner yet, so if you're purchasing for that, it could be worth it based on the individual cost/quality of those items but I can't attest to that. Hope that helps!

Does anyone have thoughts about the Kat Von D Spellbinding palette? I'm either getting that or another UD lipstick and a NARS blush

Hmmm. Should I be spending $34 on that LM palette? There's another palette neutral palette coming out soon that I'll be getting. Why are palettes so tempting?

Apparently the online sale starts at 12AM PST on 11/7. I wonder if I'm crazy enough to wake up at 3 AM my time to order...

Like I mentioned before I love purples and Violet Ink is the BUSINESS!!!! It's a rich dark deep velvety purple perfectly suited for smokey shenanigans. The other 5 shadows in the top row are just as stunning. Special shout out to African Violet and Plum Smoke. I'm soooo glad i decided to get this and I can't wait to get it in my clutches.


Can you tell I like this palette?

same! but no mail whatsoever from them, I never get any, o well, saving trees...
I haven't gotten anything in the regular mail or email either! What the heck? I always seem to get plenty of promo emails and my order confirmation emails. I checked my preferences and it said I should receive mailings but I don't.

Hah! It's like Sephora's ears were burning when I typed this - my VIB email JUST arrived.

Still waiting (anxiously) for my email/snail mail. I'm a bit worried because I moved and with my mail forwarding to my new address, everything is delayed by a few days! I need my discount!!!
