expectations and then disappoint readers as even products that are swatched don't always end up
being reviewed due to time constraints and changes in priorities! Thank you for understanding!
I’m readily awaiting your review on this one, Christine! I do think that if you have a well-rounded makeup collection these shades are easily dupeable.
I like the shade sculpture. The rest of this I find so boring.

Totally superb, both eyes. Mainline was a stroke of brilliance! Funny how the cool tones seem to take a backseat, when you look at all swatches, but they’re there and beautiful neutrals.
she seems to be on a neutral kick right now, first the Camel palette, then the mini neutral palette, and now this. I really like the look of this palette and could see this being an everyday palette, but I own the Viseart Neutral palette so I don’t truly see a place for this in my collection.
I feel the same as you! I am waiting for the review and swatches but to me, it seems like the Viseart Neutral mattes and a few glorious metallic shades. Neutral mattes is my most used palette… and I love it. So I won’t deny Biba the same potential but certainly a pass :).
Do I need this one? No, probably not.
But, do I want it and also feel like I would replace almost ALL of my other “naked/nude” palettes with this? Absolutely and unequivocally YES! ?
Right there with you Nancy. I don’t it especially since I just picked up her mini nude palette, it’s fabulous. However, I love the color scheme and feel it will play well with Safari.
Not tempting me like most Natasha Denona products because I have these colors already. If there were more shimmer shades I’d like it better. Some of the shades look very similar too. My Sephora gift card is safe.
I don’t really have a strong opinion on this palette/these swatches but had to click through IMMEDIATELY to see the details on your lip combo. It’s stunning!

BORING! I feel like ND is usually so much more innovative than this!

It doesn’t make me feel inspired so it is an easy pass for me and still trying to stick to my no/low buy.
I have a feeling that the shades here are fairly common ones in lots of palettes out these days. I don’t think there is anything really special here. I do like the shade Rustic the best.
First let’s talk about your lips in this look. Amazing combo. You have the best ideas.
I was excited for this palette until the stock photo swatches which are so misleading and look too similar. These all at least look more different except the second row. I like the first and last rows but hate the middle. I am so tired of red, cranberry, orange, rust etc tones. And that feels like what a majority of palettes have been revolving around until recently. These are colors I just can’t wear. They don’t look right on me. So this is a pass. I really wanted to love this but just can’t justify the purchase knowing I won’t use a whole row. Plus I have the camel and the mini nude so I’m set.
Now if she would make a mini of the last row with the cool & greys I’d be allllllllll over it
Thanks for the sneak peek!

Easy pass….this palette does nothing for me.

I really wish she’d had a litter more variety in here, it would be so much more tempting.
I have dupes of the several shades that I like, so this one is not for me.

Yeah I’ll probably get it I’m a sucker for good mattes. Those cool brownish grey colors are filling my head with look ideas!
It’s nice? Fine?
But Prairie and Freckle, Shine and Monroe, Rayon and Buff and Seed and Tor look almost look like matched pairs when swatched…
I was thinking the same thing and was reading through the comments until I found someone who mentioned it first so I could agree!
I find similar shades helpful with my lack of blending abilities.
I concur! A few are too similar

Not for me to many browns, but I LOVE the new packaging and depottable pans. I’m looking forward to more palettes in these palettes in the future.
I agree. I’m attracted to the packaging and the movable pans. I love moving my shadows around.
As I am looking through the shades, I found that they are kinda similar to Anastasia Beverly Hill’s Soft glam palatte?
Very easy pass for me. I find it boring, and not pretty at all.. Especially at that price. You always make anything look good tho ^_^
It’s nice, but the only colors I’m interested in our Sculture and Tor.
