OM BLOODY G! Enough said, except the usual; hope they perform well. That’s one heck of a pile you are building up for holiday reviews, my dear. I know you plan well enough to go to family for Thanksgiving. Make something easy to bring. Get some rest, and forget sewing a Halloween costume! Seriously, good luck with the season. After it’s over, I think you should do a week of link loves + sales, and delegate it! We do appreciate it.

The Pro Mega looks so, so amazing. The colour range is perfect and if the quality is as high as the original pro this is sure to be a beautiful palette.

Elise Avatar

Woah that’s a big palette from Lorac =] I don’t know how I feel about this palette because many of the colors look similar to me which makes me wonder when applied on lids, you probably won’t see the difference…

Lindsay Avatar

Lorac is quickly becoming one of my favorite makeup brands. Their quality is excellent, and the prices are at a very fair level in my opinion. The packaging for this Royal collection has me swooning! Can’t wait to pick up a few things!

cayleighs Avatar

I love the idea of that MegaPro palette, but those 16 shades of super nude are killing me! In the pan it looks like 8 shades done twice. = ( Sometimes I regret having more than one of the Naked Palette series…it makes me not want any other palette that has a nude shade in it.

Dany Avatar

Wow! Such a temptiing collection…But I only trust the Pro formula, if I am gonna get anything, I will just go with the Mega palette or the set with the little pro trio. I have the regular pro trio and absolutely love it!

Michelle Avatar

Crying. . . . these all look gorgeous and we can’t get LORAC in Canada. I bought a few things from them at ULTA when I was in the US last month and loved them. What I love about this collection is that it’s not as “cutesy” as the ones I’ve seen up to now. I guess being a bit older I’m over the cutesy packaging and am looking for more sophisticated collections, and this looks like that. Sigh. Wish I could get my hands on some of these.

Holly Avatar

You can order it on Amazon and they ship to Canada, ordered mine this morning! and it is from Amazon as a seller not some random, a bit more pricey 80.00 with standard shipping, taxes and duty and 84 for faster shipping, taxes and duty. I was so upset when I thought I couldn’t get it!

WARPAINTandUnicorns Avatar

I wish the Mega Pro Palette was permanent because these are the shade i like to use. The Original PRO i didn’t use half the shade because they ran too dark for me. lol

I also like the look of the The Vintage Vixen Matte Eye Shadow Palette but again Ulta Exclusive. T-T I guess I can live without because the tone are Similar to the Naked Basics sans the berry shade.

Ginny Avatar

I would love to have the little Vixen palette with the five matte shadows, but, a Black Friday exclusive? Yeah, if there’s one thing I need more of in my make-up buying experiences it’s DEFINITELY anxiety!

BB Avatar

It says “See more photos & swatches! ” but there are nos watches yet.

Wow this is a lot of stuff. I can’t wait to see how the eyeshadow colors look!

Lydia Avatar

Am I think only one who is not excited about the Mega Pro Palette? There’s been so much hype and buzz about it on all my social media for weeks, but there’s not a single color that I feel I need! Many of them look very similar to each other, they’re overwhelmingly neutral, and I’m pretty sure I already have dupes for 80% of them. It just seems like a bland product for a holiday season launch to me! Just my personal opinion… though I guess it would be great for someone trying to get their collection started.

Tamara Avatar

I just can’t make up my mind about the Mega Pro. I feel like I should be just as hyped as the rest of the population, but I look at the colours and just think meh. The dark greens hold no appeal for me, nor the purple-burgandy colours. I do already have both Pro Palettes tho so this isn’t a necessity and will save me $$ for a few more holiday pieces…..

Miki Avatar

Well…I’m already in love with that Mega Pro. I just wish it would have been packaged to be twice the size in thickness rather than width…like a palette on the front and then flip it over, and the rest of the shades are on the back. This size seems a little harder to store.

Maggie Avatar

That’s my only beef with it too. I would love to take this home but I’ve noticed that I don’t tend to use any of my ginormous palettes–bc of all the surface area it needs when I do my makeup. I might get it anyway–I’m in love with the color selection.

Carrie Avatar

That Mega Pro Palette looks fantastic. The original Pro palette is one of my favorites, but I hadn’t sprung for the Pro2 yet, so I think I need this in my life. Will you be reviewing it?

Elizabeth K. Avatar

Seems like the Mega palette has lots of light colors, especially on the left half. Hmmm….maybe not as much versatility as it should have, I’m thinking. Still probably worth it.

Johanna Avatar

I have had the regular Pro palette on my wish list for awhile and was pausing until I saw better pics of the Mega Pro. The Mega is just… meh. I agree, too many light colored neutrals, although I’m sure the quality is great. Christine, I hope you get this to swatch! Very curious.

I think champagne dreams looks pretty similar to their Unzipped palette so I will pass on it, but I do love the Sultry Starlet palette! It’s so affordable and a great, edited selection of shadows for travel. I think it would be a nice complement to the small neutral LE palette they released earlier this year.

NelleShoeGirl Avatar

Argh. I’m annoyed that the Mega Pro is only on Lorac’s website and Amazon. I’ve been saving up Ulta points for almost a year and I was going to use them to buy this! It also means we won’t be able to see/swatch in person. *grumble grumble* 🙂

Lulle Avatar

Yup, the Mega Pro palette is exactly why MAC Gravitas was a pass: same range of neutral colors, more shades with a variety of finishes, and only $59!
I’ve seen Lorac made swatches and the pigmentation and textures looked good, but I wish you could have it before the launch Christine!

Cathe Avatar

So sad it won’t be available for Canadian customers 🙁 ! I don’t own any of the Lorac Pro Palette so I would have buy this one without a single doubt! Really really sad about it!

Karina Avatar

This is what I’ve been waiting for! Christine not sure if anyone has asked this question but do you know if the mega pro will be available on Sephora? Not sure if I should wait for that or get it now!!!

Kris Avatar

Holy…

so yeah… I just splurged on the hourglass blush palette…I already eliminated the tarte palette from the sephora but I do want the tarte compact blush set (chic to chic) … I was debating to get the tarte ulta set with the eyeshadows and blushes…then I just saw NARS holiday 2014 and want the lip pencils… and now everything in lorac looks GORG. I. CAN.’T. EVEN. And I still have those chocolate bar palettes from 2 years ago I haven’t even used up yet. I am so screwed.

Nicole Avatar

OH MY GOODNESS!!! My heart just stopped. This along with NARS and Too Faced ( which already has gotten me with the :Everything Nice” set and the “La Belle Carousel”)! I’m gonna be broke before I get to shopping for everyone else,lol! Christine do you have any opinion on the liquid lustres and or the Lorac creme glosses? I only have the two pro palettes which I bought both after reading your reviews. Prior to,I had never considered buying Lorac for some reason…not in Sephora or mass retailers I suppose. They should be gifting you this whole sha-bang for the business I am sure you have brought them! Happy eight years to you as well!

Sylirael Avatar

Phew! There are a lot of interesting looking eyeshadow palettes there – LORAC is the one eyeshadow brand everyone raves about that I haven’t tried yet! I’d love to get my hands on some at some point. 🙂 That Mega palette would be a good place to start, LOL, but it has a few too many neutrals for me to get *super* excited about it 😉

Liz Avatar

On the Mega palette, gotta say the lighter shades seem real light. I’m like nc25, but those colors seem kind of too pale. But the first pro palette remains my fave palette so we’ll see.

Pami Avatar

From all of the mid-range holiday collections that I’ve seen so far, this one is the most intriguing. I’m especially interested in the Mega Pro Palette – can’t wait for your review! I’m very surprised about the exclusive Amazon/Lorac release though. I wonder if that is for a limited time, and then maybe rolling out to other Lorac retailers.
The matte Vintage Vixens Palette looks very similar to Urban Decay’s Naked Basic with the addition of the brownish burgundy shade. IDK how much of a pain it will be to snag with it being a Black Friday Ulta exclusive, but I’d sure like to have it, and what a great price – $12! The Champagne Dreams Palette looks pretty, but probably too warm for me – another great price at $15, but an Ulta exclusive, making it harder for many to buy. I’m also interested in the Party Palette.
I’ve always liked her lip glosses, but I have several of her sets.
I believe she had a 3D Liquid Lustre set last year, and some of the colors may overlap.
There does seem to be something for everyone in this large collection!

Heather Avatar

With the look of it so far, I think I’m going to have to splurge for that mega palette! I love how the color choices are also very appropriate ones to have for fall/winter time. [:

Diana Avatar

I haven’t bought an eyeshadow palette all year and it looks like I was waiting for this one. (The 10 Inglot singles I bought 2 weeks ago, don’t count LOL) I read in the comments before that LORAC didn’t send you one, what a shame because I always love reading/seeing your reviews before I buy anything.

Chloe Avatar

Hi Christine,
any advice to those in the UK as how best to get hold of LAROC Products- does their site ship worldwide?

thanks in advance and for all the amazing work you do on your blog – it is amazing!

Annie Avatar

SWEET I was planning to get the Lorac Pro Palette and I have an Amazon gift card I can use! 😀 I have the original and Pro Palette 2 – just amazing quality eyeshadows! Honestly not sure I need more but hey, a gift card is a gift card 😉

Johnna Quick Owens Avatar

I usually boycott Black Friday craziness, but I can foresee a trip to Ulta in my Black Friday future! I really love so much of this collection.

Kimberlee Avatar

I always get my daughter the lipgloss set for Christmas. So, she has accumulated probably 12. I think it’s my turn this year! And that mega palette is going to be mine!!

LIly Avatar

does anyone know if the mega pro palette is limited addition?? I need to get this palette in my life I just wanna know if I have to be glued to the website come Oct 7th? or I can kinda take my time…..let me know if you know anything about this

Fran Avatar

I would love it if you could do a full review on the Mega PRO palette. Of all the holiday palettes I’ve seen photos of so far, that one interests me the most. I have LORAC’s PRO 2 palette and am really impressed with the quality of the eyeshadows — if the quality is comparable on this one, I definitely want it! If not, I’ll just get the original PRO palette and some colorful singles from MUFE, NARS, Ardency Inn or Urban Decay.

Katharina Keilich Avatar

Hey,

Does anyone know where i can get the mega pro palette in New york?

Love Katie
