What was the last launch that disappointed you?

MAC x Nicopanda – I just can’t get over the quality of the eyeshadow/cheek palettes. (I’m also writing this answer in late April, so there might be a worse launch between then and now…)

I pay more and more attention to the likelihood that I will have 1) time to review and 2) that there’s good reason to review it! I’m trying really hard not to over-buy.
