How much do you keep up with new launches?

How much do you keep up with new launches?

I try to keep up with the major ones and a select more indie/up-and-coming brands as there are a lot of brands around, so trying to keep up with everything is overwhelming.

Pat McGrath Galactic Gold Palette Swatches

Pat McGrath Galactic Gold Palette ($65.00) is a new, limited edition eyeshadow palette that includes six shades (three new, three previously released).

I ordered this through the Instagram early access, and it went via two-shipping so it came sooner than my order for the set of palettes (which might...

Pat McGrath Decadence | 5 Ways to Dupe the Vibes

In light of a very frustrating launch that's been fraught with communication issues (from announcing the wrong time publicly to Selfridges' release date coming and going TWICE!), slow response times (from what I've heard from readers re: emails for status updates), and a quick-to-sellout...

Cream Eyeshadow

I love them for adding a shinier, more sparkly finish (with less falout) and just having a more intense finish overall. I know others love ’em for one-and-done looks, but I love creating color combos so I tend to reach for cream eyeshadows as bases or to use on the inner tearduct/lower lash line or on the lid.

What was the last product you bought that was poorly reviewed (or received by others)? How did it go for you?

I bought Lancome’s Le Monochromatique Eye & CheekMini palette, but the reviews were dismal across multiple retailers, so I ended up giving it a lower priority… to the point where I ended up donating it altogether (never swatched at all).

If you had done more research, what are some products you wouldn't have purchased?

If you had done more research, what are some products you wouldn't have purchased?

No answer is jumping out at me, but I’ll say that there have been times where a brand’s past performance has made me weary of future releases, and instead of buying six shades (out of 20+) to see how those performed… I’ve bought all 20+ and came away with a lot of disappointing/so-so reviews...
