Exciting! Guerlain used to have a palette like this, it is a very nice way to mix up your existing shadows.

these look lovely but I think I am at the point where I am going to boycott brands that force you to buy a separate palette at what is quite a high price. It's one thing choosing to depot but I don't like being denied the option of buying a single shadow in a format I can store it in. Bobbi Brown has the right approach I think.

Hi Great She... you could buy them individually if you had somewhere to store them..like a magnetic palette.

eeeek, these look really good and i must admit that when i first saw the swatches on their own i didn't expect much from them....but when i scrolled down and saw them on top of the black, it looked 10 times better! they look gorgeous and can transform any shadow :) I always love Paul and Joes packaging, but never got round to purchasing products from them yet.
Thanks so much for sharing~x

Yes, but that still means buying a separate palette. This idea of turning packaging into a separate product you have to pay extra for as opposed to an integral part of the item is the issue as far as I'm concerned. It's very clever I suppose as a revenue increasing measure but I want none of it. Many of these brands are overpriced enough as it is. I like the idea of the flexibility of picking your own colours for a trio but the palette should be free.

ELF also have a reall reasonably priced palette identical to this, which I love for its versatility. Also, the 4 shade ELF palette costs less than one ofthese shades and is just as effective. I love mine!

I've been waiting these for the longest time. I am so excited for them. Also loving the whole collection. I've got one of the lipglosses but will be getting the powder but would also love a blusher or two.... best get saving!

Hey,
Just as a heads up in case you want to find something cheaper and that you don't want to purchase a separate palette, the Body Shop do eye shimmers which do pretty much the same thing! I have the green one and use it over a black cream eyeshadow and it goes this amazing emerald green!
