Holiday Sets: When are they revealed?

[dancersmum]

apologies if this has been covered....but in the past tarte has done sets that have the fat eyeshadow pencil - smoldereyes for the holidays - did they do anything for this year?  here's an example - http://www.sephora.com/smoldereyes-amazonian-clay-waterproof-liner-P290630?skuId=1577964

Its the only thing my daughter has on her wish list - and I think its the only thing I haven't seen!  Did I just miss it...do you think all the tarte stuff is out yet?

I bought her a 2013 set but the 2012 set would have been awesome...but I can't find them anywhere anymore!

Nars is actually a brand I've never tried! Might have to pick up something from the holiday collection. Kind of eyeing the blush palette and/or lip set.

As if I need more blush and lip products!

You need to remedy that problem immediately!  I love the Nars lip pencils (matte over the glossy ones) and the eye primer (which IMO might be better than the UD primer).

@@normajean2008 I'm sorry you didn't like the Audacious lipsticks /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" /> And I believe @@Shalott didn't like the TF lipsticks? I loved both and you two are usually my ~soul sisters~ when it comes to makeup

I'm in love with the Nars holiday blush palette... I like it more than last year's (I bought last year's but ended up selling it- horror story with eBay, btw!!). It's gorgeous! I just wish they'd cut it out with the bronzer /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" />

I want the palette, too!  I personally don't love Laguna... I wish they would add some crazy colors like Exhibit A, although I'm happy they didn't include Orgasm.  I am also wondering about the packaging.  I love NARS' rubberized packaging, and I wonder if it's similar or a hard case.

Hi guys, I've been stalking this thread for a while but as I'm located in Poland I didn't write anything because my abilities to get any of the things you mention are limited, at best. I just fed my eyes on all the lovelies. BUT: my friend who lives in NY has finally managed to find some time to shop around after having a baby recently and she promised to pick some things up for me at Ulta near her place.

What would you recommend? It seems to me that the choice at Ulta is much more limited than at Sephora but maybe I'm unable to find some things? Or they've already sold out or haven't been in stock yet?

It seems there are many more things I'd like at Sephora but I don't want to give my friend too much trouble if she only shops at Ulta...

Just checked the store locator thing on the Sephora website and it looks like my SiJCP finally has the Tarte blush palette and the Benefit blush set. So, I'll be there when they open at 10 this morning!  /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" />

Let me know what you think about the Pulp Fiction palette!  I wasn't interested in it at first, but for $16 I think I might pick it up anyway.

Will do! It was supposed to come yesterday but they changed delivery to today, so hopefully it's here soon!

I was feeling the same way about it..didn't buy it when it first came out, but for $16? Absolutely! /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" />

Hi!  Are you looking at holiday exclusive sets? I would say eyeshadow palettes from Urban Decay or Tarte are pretty solid options but you do have a lot of choices!

I was hoping they'd do a mini magnificent metal set!

Omg the anniversary line sets I'm in heaven but I can't afford that or don't want to I'm not sure

i was able to get last year's smudge stick set (which was a good number of them... like 5? 6?) for $12 at Nordstrom Rack so I'm having a really hard time seeing the value in that!

Hi, thanks for the recommendation. I've never had anything from Tarte and I'm quite interested in everything. I've only had Naked 2 from UD and I like their stuff so would like to pick sth too. I'm also definately interested in some holiday sets and lippies!

Awww, you got me all excited! I read that as, "I was *hoping* they'd do a mini magnificent foils set!" with joy, but I guess that's more "Awww.. I was hoping they'd do a mini magnificent foils set. /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" /> "

That would have been awesome!

No kidding! How can one person need that many eyeliners, much less be able to afford it? GAHHHHH!

Oh I have waaay more than that in my liner collection. I want a full spectrum of just liners /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" /> but I also got 5 for 15 last year and theres not much COLOR in the smudgestick set at least so I'll probably pass

Urban Decay has a lipstick set called Full Frontal.  It's got 6 mini lipsticks and a clear liner.  I bought it and love it!  Urban's lipstick formula is fantastic, and it's available at Ulta!  The Tarte lipsurgence lip pencils are nice and I think Ulta also has a set of those. 

 

[tacehtpuekam]

Ok, got my blush sets! /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" /> 

The only things left on my list (well, at least of the sets we've seen so far) are Vice 3 (waiting for UD's F&F sale) & possibly the Fresh Lip Legends set.

I have so many things that I want to buy still... Can't pull the trigger for some reason.
