* Unfortunately, the palettes are glued into the displayer, which makes it difficult to read any labels with names of the shadows in the palettes! Collection information does not provide any color descriptions, so the names are approximate and our best guesses. If you know for sure of an error, please let us know!
For the Look in the Boxes, they contain permanent items, so I encourage you to check out our Gallery to browse your favorites.
The Graphic Garden palette definitely has gorgeous colors. On another blog, the Fresh Cut palette was said to have very poor color pay off & their swatches proved it. However, your swatches, Christine, look more vibrant. Did you have to layer a lot with this specific palette to get it to show??
IT’s pretty but thankfully for my budget I will be skipping.
Those are so pretty! We don’t get these here though about two years ago we received some stuff from Novel Twist sooo I’m keeping my fingers crossed for the Graphic Garden Palette <3
Aww 🙁 I hope you get it…
I would love to mix and match these as I really like 3 colours from each palette – don’t think I can justify getting both… :S Love Garden Bed and Baby Bloom too. *sigh*
Incidentally, are any of these eyeshadows part of the permanent line or are they all limited edition?
Don’t quote me but these all seem to be LE, although many of these shades do look like they are easily dupable with permanent colors.
The eyeshadows in the palettes are all LE. However the eyeshadows that are in each of the look boxes are in the perm line. I like to collect the palettes so I am getting Graphic Garden palette i already have it on order at the Bay.
I do believe they’re all LE, though some are dupeable for sure.
I do believe they are all LE.
It would be FUN to mix and match! Aww!
Does anyone have the Shell Pearl Beauty Powder from the last time it was released? I couldnt find any swatches on any blogs and I ordered the Sweet Tease Look Box because i love beauty powders but i’d really like to see it in advance. this was the only look box that appealed to me because the rest of the items in the other 2 look boxes are all in the regular line.
It’s a very smooth, pearly powder. It works well for highlighting and adding some sheen.
gorgeousss
linear lilac reminds me of asphyixia from urban decay
are you doing a lip swatch of the lippies? baby bloom looks nice.
Unfortunately, I don’t think I will be, as I won’t be purchasing either set this time around 🙁
is Graphic Garden being released at Mac stores and counters or is it exclusive to Nordstrom?
Exclusive to Nordstrom. But I know Singapore has it, as does The Bay in Canada, and Selfridges in the UK is supposed to have it.
this is available on the uk website today along with eurocriast,babybloom and new love look collection
Yay!
In the cool eyes palette are the colours similar to the 3 from the heatherette trio 1? the black, aqua and pink? i was thinking of purchasing the palette from the graphic gardens collection (and the heatherette trio 1 from ebay) but dont really want colours that are similar. anyone rekon they’re similar? 🙂 thanx
Yes, they are – I wouldn’t pick it up!
