Holiday Sets: When are they revealed?

[Laura Etchison]

That is amazing!! Thank you! My 5-year plan with my SO is to buy a plot of land to open up a small animal rescue and to help other rescues that need help. For now I have a sum I give monthly to a few charities. It makes me feel a little bit better /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" />

I have this dream as well!  It's not a 5 year plan, but it's a plan.  I am a transport driver for rescues pulled out of mostly Missouri.  We transport up to one hundred dogs every two weeks.  We pick up a few along the route -- it's always nice to see local pups get a 2nd chance.  Our transports run north to Canada and Maine and generally south to Baltimore'ish.  So rewarding!

Now -- with respect to holiday sets.  I tried to buy the Full Frontal at SiJCP, but whoops -- only avail online according to the clerk.  Sigh.  I tried.  At least she was very excited to learn of its existence.

I agree, the Lorac Mega Pro Palette is more on the warmer side /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" />

Highlight Shade - Cream

Transition Shade - Fawn

Crease Shade- Camel

Deepen Crease Shade - Sepia

Middle of Lid Shade - Blush

All Over the Lid Shade - Merlot

So far so good.. The palette is so well worth the price tag of $59!

Wow, so pretty!

I have a question, how does the texture of shadow in Mega Pro pallet compare to original Lorac Pro? I have the original Lorac Pro and I love it,the texture is very smooth and buttery, but I also have SummerGlo and Lorac Pro to go quad, and I feel that texture in those is just not the same, especially SummerGlo...

Agreed! Summer glo was so terrible!  I felt the shadows were chalky and had little pigmentation.  Which made me so sad because the colors are so pretty!

I still have no shipping upate on my Mega Pro.  Then I realized I did only order 2 days ago, on the day they launched and I think they said it could be 2+ business days.  Patience is not my strong suit.

SummerGLO wasn't THAT bad but it was definitely different from their PRO palette lines /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" /> haha

You should see Lorac's FB page.. =X Everyone wants their palette ASAP!

Thank you Elena! The Mega Pro Palette is very comparable to the Original Lorac Pro Palette and Lorac Pro Palette 2 with the same great eyeshadow quality. I would have to agree that the summerGLO palette had a different eyeshadow texture and off quality but it was so and so..

I don't think SummerGlo is entirely terrible, but I was disappointed since I got Lorac Pro first and was expecting similar quality. Now I have a bit of a dilemma weather I should return it or not, I think I'm still with the window, but I got it at epic discount, and the colors ARE so pretty... Oh, decisions...

Thanks! 

I really wish Sephora carried Lorac, and I could go see it in person.

The gold brushes and mirrors and the like a couple of people said they liked are on Sephora now

My wishlist is pretty small, but it's still more than I would like to spend! I'll have to really think about it, because in all reality, I don't need any of these things. They just make me happy!

Hourglass Ambient Light palette - $58

Hourglass Ambient Blush palette - $58

Vice 3 - $60

UD Full Frontal lipstick set - $39

UD Pulp Fiction - $16

Tarte Pigment of Imagination set - $10

$241.... yeah, NO. I can't afford that, so I'll have to narrow it down.

Thanks for posting this. I need a reality check in my holiday wishlist too. Hehehe... Mine is up to $350.... yikes.

Ooooooohhhhhhhh!

Wow!!!! At first glance, I really want this....and I knew it'd be a lot of money, but $150 and I think I'm pretty much out.

Such mixed reviews on those Nars brushes! I own the Yachiyo and the #44 and I love them both. My Costco blush brush is softer but I have so much control and it already looks blended with with the Yachiyo. I rarely touch the Costco Borghese one anymore. The Kabuki brush from the set is super soft too, way softer than the ones from my Bare Minerals Set.

@@SaraP, I think you said you have the Mie brush, is it terrible? That is the one with the horrible reviews. I currently use the Yachiyo for blush, bronzer and Ambient Lighting powder in smaller areas but I thought the Mie would be better for my bronzer and Ambient Lighthing Powder application.

I have been SO good for months, but I feel I may be about to crack...mostly on the holiday lotion and shower gels...

My Meteorites that I ordered from Sephora are set to be delivered Monday, who delivers OnTrac? Is it a different carrier all together or do they partner with one of the larger carriers?

 

[turntrekgodhead]

MegaPRO is sold out and will not be restocking as of two hours ago. Amazon is getting a limited shipment in a few days, but that's it.

I can't answer your question but I got my Meteorites yesterday and they swatched beautifully.

Can't wait to get them it will be an awesome treat after having to go to AZ this weekend.

Anyone thinking about UD Pulp Fiction as part of their holiday list, I have been using mine for a week or so and I love the quality.  But, it is a warm palette.  So, if anyone doesn't like the warm colors, it may be something to cross off your lists.  Its only a $16.00 savings but, its something.

I think I am going to go for Vice 3 as I need cool colors.  It looks to have a decent amount.  Also, thinking about the Hourglass Blush Palette.

That's a huge bummer...... I really want it, but I don't know about it.... I wanted to swatch it before buying. Eugh!!!!

Does anyone know about Amazon's return policy? If I bought it could I return it? I just want to look at the colors up close.

Just got this email

On the topic of Lorac's Mega Pro Palette...

Here is today's look:



I used Deep Teal all over the lid + outer lower lash line, Brown in the crease, Cream as the highlighter, and Vanilla on the inner lower lash line.

There's ALWAYS that one piece of hair that gets stuck to my face D; and don't mind the lipstick... I swapped it out with a more neutral one when I was in the car (the MUFE lipstick that was part of Sephora's birthday gift)

@@SaraP, I think you said you have the Mie brush, is it terrible? 

[SIZE=14.3999996185303px]No I don't have the Mie, but I really want the Yachiyo or a set like last years![/SIZE]

My Meteorites that I ordered from Sephora are set to be delivered Monday, who delivers OnTrac? Is it a different carrier all together or do they partner with one of the larger carriers?

Different all together.  They are commonly used by several companies for short trip deliveries.  (like stuff coming only from a state or two away, or in state). 

If it is a Sephora order coming OnTrac, it is from the Salt Lake City warehouse.  They deliver to your door, same as other companies (or your mail room/etc however packages are received normally).  

I usually like OnTrac over UPS etc, because if it arrives in town early they usually deliver it early, rather than leave it sitting in the warehouse saying "not due for delivery" and at least in my area is usually delivered by 10/11 am.
