The kaleidoscopes are usually amazing. There are so many ways to play with them. And YES I have the Le Metier brushes. I recently purchased them on their Beauty Vault website (www.lemetierdebeaute.com) It's good to check out since they are always having specials and freebies w/ purchase. Right now they are giving away a limited edition Gravite kaleidoscope w/ any purchase from the site. I purchased the brushes a few weeks ago from the Beauty Vault. I haven't played with them all yet. But I LOVE the eyeshadow brush. It is really wonderful. Especially w/ darker shadows since it has a light touch and makes them very buildable. I don't have the crease brush but I think I may have to pick it up. Caution: This is a true luxury brand so the brushes come w/ a high price tag. You may just want to pick up one brush first before you take the plunge. And it probably should be the eyeshadow paddle brush. ( Note: The brush heads are full size but the handles are extremely short. Just wanted to mention that. I was so surprised when I first saw it!)
Yeah I was looking at their website last night. How do you get the Gravite for free? Do you just enter a promo code? Or is it automatic? Also how does their website work? Are you only able to purchase "collections" or can you buy individual items? Because all I see are like 8 collections.

THIS video! Thank you! I played around with layering with my eye shadows last  night...wow! What a difference! No more boring neutral shadows for me. I'm laying it up, baby!

I'm glad i didn't buy it either.  It is really cute stuff, but not worth $250 for me.

 
I am super excited about it. These kaleidoscopes are really special. Since they are designed to be layered, it's hard to judge any color w/out playing with it. I am not a huge pink shadow person at all. Doesn't look great on me. However I have a similiar (kind of) kaleidoscope called Nouvelle Vague. It is mostly pinks and mauves with a blacker than black 4th shadow. (like this one and btw it's the BEST black shadow ever! Mickey Castillo, the color director of LMdB, designed it to be the most perfect black and he succeeded! ) Once the pinks are layered w/ the black they are transformed. The black softens and shimmers. Almost lightly irridescent. The pinks deepen and smoke out. They have gorgeous dimension. It is really stunning. I can't wait to play w/ this one. The bright poppy-ness of the pinks contrasted w/ the black and golden cream...may lead to magic!!!!!! @brainybeauty here is a youtube video that shows you how to layer the LMdB shadow.
Thanks so much for this, I was not into that palette at all but after reading this and watching the video I am very excited and relieved!!
 
I too would LOVE to trade for the Le Metier De Beaute palette. Love this! Please keep me in mind if you are going to trade!

What a great box!  I'm a little sad I didn't get one.  Those plates are beautiful, the zebra dish is really unique, the throw is fun, and I'm ga-ga over kaleidoscopes.  Enjoy your boxes ladies!

The Gravite is just automatically sent to you, there is no code. I am pretty sure they are still giving it away as a GWP but check their FB page for 100% confirmation. Someone just posted the same question, but they haven't responded yet. It's a stunning kaleidoscope btw...

You can only purchase what pairings they have available on their website. They typically change it weekly.

But there is always a free product or two that comes w/ each pairing or collection. But now it's the free product that comes w/ the collection PLUS the free kaleidoscope. It's an awesome deal if you find a collection you really like. 

( I just purchased the Nakeds from their site...it came w/ a FREE $175 eye cream !!!!! and the kaleidoscope GWP)

The pairings or collections are more expensive now because of the promotion. They usually offer more of a range of products at a range of prices. But you can seriously find some great deals on their site.

Like 4 nail polishes for the price of 2 etc....

Awesome!

I have to say the main reason I got this box was because of the spoiler that LMdB would be in it.

I am obsessed with that brand!

 
If anyone does not want their Le Metier Kaleidoscope, I would love to swap for it. I was just sick when this box sold out and that's what I really want from it. I haven't made a swap thread here on MUT yet, but I have a board on Pinterest that has a lot of my collection I'm looking to swap:   http://www.pinterest.com/karrisf/swap-board/

 
PopSugar!  Curse you and the delays in shipping. I broke down and peeked.  I love going spoiler free.  Couldn't do it since someone got the box a whole week before me.  For those who are concerned about it saying processing, mine does too, but I checked via FedEx Track by Reference and it has definitely shipped (just plug in your account number in that reference section, use today's date, united states, and your zip code...and voila!).  

I'm so psyched for this box!! Guess I'm the target market for this - and guess that is why I ordered it.  I have never heard of this necklace designer and already ordered something else from her just now.  Grrr... can blame Popsugar for that. LOL. I think the zebra will likely come in Silver or Gold (as that's what is on Neiman's site) - pretty nice.   Think I am hoping for Gold (but wondering if others get other variations).   Anyways, hope everyone who did order enjoys it!  Sounds like it wasn't a good fit for many who didn't order it - so it sort of works out that way.  Happy unboxing...

 
@LisaLeah your video opened up a whole new world for me as well.  Thank you so much!  Even more excited for the kaleidoscope (and revisiting the Stila kit from Fall again too)

I think they all are?  You can track by reference on fedex.com using your subscription / order number.
