Sydney Grace x Temptalia | Save the Date: June 18th!
My collaboration with Sydney Grace will launch on June 18th, 2021. The collection includes three eyeshadow palettes, each with a light and deep version (different by two shades). They’re working on putting all of those eyeshadow pans into the palettes! I should have official palettes to photograph, so I can share all of the details, in the next week, which is when you can expect a full, in-depth reveal 🙂
Each palette will be $40, or they can be purchased as a trio for $100. You can use code TEMPTALIA15 for 15% off, which makes each palette $34 and the trio $85. There will also be a single eyeshadow called “Dear Reader,” which will be available as an extra shade as I couldn’t ignore the love expressed by readers for two versions of the final shade. The one I didn’t pick for the palette will be available as a single!

I’m so excited for you!!
Thank you, Rebekah! I am excited but sooo nervous!
Congrats! I’m so excited for your collaboration with Sydney Grace!
Thanks a lot, Jessica!
OMG finally!! Congratulations!!! Can’t wait to see the products!!!!
Thank you, Alice!
…And we’re gonna set an alarm, write it down in the planner, jot a note on the fridge…
Congratulations on successfully finishing the palettes!! I’ve been obsessively following, so I know some of the colors were a bit hard to pick. Now just sit back, relax, and listen to us squeal!!
Haha! I am guessing it will be around 9AM PT, but I’ll have confirmation of time soon.
Thank you, DG!
ooooOOOO!! I’m so excited to see the beautiful color stories you’ve curated!! These are also honestly much more affordable than I was expecting, so I hope I can pick them up! Congratulations, Christine!!!! <3
I’m pretty happy with the price point, so I’m happy to hear the price is better than you expected!
*screams in joy*
🎉🎉
Congratulations on this labour of love! Can’t wait to get my hands on your trilogy of colour stories. Thank you for taking us on this creative journey with you.
Thank you, Umayama!
Congratulations! I can’t wait.
Thanks a lot, Lucina!
I am already anxious about it selling out before I can snag it. I have so much respect for you, Christine. I have been following Temptalia for over a decade. I can’t wait for this collab. This may sound weird, but when I’m going through a tough time, I refresh temptalia.com more often. There’s something comforting about the work you do. It has been a fixture in my life for a long time. I appreciate you so much. Also, the colors look awesome!!
If the quantity sells out, it would exceed even high expectations! They’ve never had this many available at launch! We tried to work through how their palettes sell, how their previous collaboration went, and looked at my readership + possible exposure from people on my PR list!
Speaking of “PR” list.. As you are one of few (unfortunately) who actually protects their supporters/viewers/consumers by properly disclosing (as is & has been required for a long time… but lacks follow-through/enforcement).. Would be very refreshing for the brand/product to make SURE whomever it is being sent to… does the same! That they clearly state in whatever blog, video, posts, etc. the product they are mentioning, reviewing, linking to $.. was “sent for free, by…” 🙂 HUGE CONGRATS, btw… well deserved & as expected, looks stunning so far!!! Stay safe & be well.
Pretty sure everyone on my list is good at those things!
And thank you!!
You’re welcome, and thanks for the information. That is so good to know!
Congrats. Those palettes must look beautiful in person with the cohesive illustrations and shadows. I’m curious to see the final color stories, since you pulled some of my favorite shades of blue and aqua.
Thank you so much, Lune!
Yes! I have been waiting for this, and I am so stoked that we finally have a release date!!!
Me too! 🙂
❤️❤️❤️I can’t wait!!!! I know it will be absolutely amazing. 😍
I hope so!!
So excited about these palettes Christine. Can’t wait to get them!
Thanks a lot, Vanessa!
This is so exciting!! Can’t wait to see the reveal!!
Ugh, I want to show everything ASAP!! Just waiting on the final production versions, lol!
Wonderful news! So excited!!! Congratulations dear Christine!!!
Thank you, Lili!
I am just absolutely GIDDY over this!!!!! I am SO over the moon excited for you. I am getting the trio and Dear Reader. You are the reason I got into Sydney Grace.
Aww, thank you so much, Stephanie! 🙂
YES! My wallet is ready — because I saved my birthday money for this 😉
Woohoo!! 🙂
Squeeeee!
🎉🎉
I am SUPER excited, but also really nervous: How limited will these be?
They aren’t! They will keep restocking as long as they continue to sell well!
How exciting! I can’t wait to see the full reveal!
Can’t wait to share!! Eagerly anticipating the arrival of my official palettes, lol!
Congratulations! My No-Buy ends in June.. I am so happy for you!
Thanks a lot, Krisabele!
Congrats Christine!! I wish this is available in our country. 😭😭😭
It will ship to most countries, but it will not be cheap (my understanding is that it is pretty much what they get charged via USPS by weight) 🙁
Boo hoo, I’ll ship it to my daughter ( and tell her to keep her hands off😜 ) or get her one or more too 🤔. We both have summer birthdays😜
This is so incredibly exciting!
I’m so glad we’re almost there!!
YAY!!!!! ahhhh so excited for this!
Thank you, Noel!
oh wow i’m so excited. and i want them all.
do you know if they would ship internationally? i am in Australia- usually we miss out lots of great stuff/ brands.
They do! I know international shipping is not cheap, though 🙁 They’re going to send me the weights, and I’m going to try to get some info for a few countries just so it isn’t a total shock.
Buying this as my high school grad gift to myself. Beautiful!
Congrats on graduation, Em!
Many many congrats!! It’s a big deal. Please please, I know you love the teal eyeshadow but some good cream blushes with cream highlighters that are reasonably priced would be great ! Peachy / bronze colors ( no gold!! ) really congrats!!
Aww, we just did eyeshadow!
Wow what gorgeous colors! Some of my favorite shades! Can’t wait!
Yay! Thank you, Natalie!
On my list, and I will be getting them. No one deserves this collection more, for all you bring to the beauty community (and always positive yet still thoughtful). While I don’t always agree with every review you do, you are mostly spot on and recognize the good stuff from the rest.
Excited for this. Thank you (for this collection and the rest of what you do).
Thank you so much, Megan! 🙂
I am so thrilled for you, and so excited to snag all of these! They look amazing, and it’s clear you’ve put so much thought and effort into this project, I know they’re going to be a fantastic add to my collection. Congratulations, the 18th can’t come fast enough!!
Fingers crossed! Thank you, Kate!
Yay! So happy to see a date! This is unbelievably exciting. This is going to sell out for sure!
You and me both, LOL!
Thank you, Joanna!
So very happy for you! How exciting…love the colors you’ve shown us so far. :o)
Thanks a lot, Sandy!
Finally!!!
😂😂
Can’t wait! Congratulations again, Christine!
Thank you, Pearl!
This is the most exciting news, Christine!! I have added the date to my calendar! Can’t wait!! xo
Woohoo!! Thanks, Daniela!
I love the inspiration, Christine. The Northern Lights are so beautiful – can’t wait to see the creative looks you put together with these!
They are! Such an inspiring phenomenon 🙂
Yesss! I’ve been looking forward to this release! Congratulations Christine!
Thanks, Jade!
Yay! I’m so excited! Congratulations!
Thank you, Kimm!
This is so exciting!! I know it will be wildly successful!
Thank you, Celesta!
I’m so glad to see an update with an official date! I’ve been curious, but didn’t want to seem like a pest asking about it and knew it would be reasonably soon based on the last update. I’m on an eyeshadow moratorium this year (I have more than two eyes reasonably need), but at the beginning of the year I said I was making an exception for these – so these will be my only eyeshadow purchase of the year and I’m very excited.
Happy to finally share the date! I’ve pretty much shared everything as soon as feasible, LOL! Hard to keep a secret 🙂
Can’t wait 👀
Me neither!
I almost missed seeing this!!!! Ahhhhhh! Thank you for the palettes and code in advance!!!! I see that purples are a coming!!!!! Yeah!🙌🏽
No problem, Jane!
À though occurred to me, will you have someone else review your palettes? 🤣 😜😂😂😂
On the blog? No, but there are people who will receive it as part of SG’s PR list and then additional people that I know!
Just saw the swatches and can only say, dah! They are definitely A-A+ palettes! Just sooo pigmented and smooth looking! Thanks you and Sydney Grace!
Congrats!
I know you worked so hard on this project and bring so much of yourself to the trio(s)!!
Thank you, DVa!!
Okay who else keeps looking at the video over and over and freezing it ??!!!🤣
Haha!
So excited!! This will be my first Sydney Grace purchase.
I hope you love them!
GRATS! They’re so beautiful!!!! Im not big on color, but how can I not try to get my hands on 1? I owe you so much for your time reviewing and swatching products. You’ve saved me so much money just by telling me things that have been hyped up are actually crap, or by showing ACCURATE swatches, although, you’ve also convinced me to go on huge hauls, because I see how gorgeous things are too, lol…. But I trust you so much, and even though I haven’t tried Sydney Grace (even though I have been meaning to for 2? or more years…) I trust that her formula must be great for you to collab, and even though I don’t wear color, Ill use this as an excuse to buy another “I swear Ill use it to get out of my comfort zone” palette, lol… But Im so happy for you! Total support!!!
Here’s hoping that On the Horizon, which is the least colorful, appeals to you then! 🙂
Thank you, Erin!
Oh, I’m so excited for you. I’ve been following you for a long time! I always look for your reviews. Congratulations, and I cannot wait!
Thank you, Janice!
This is so exciting. Incredibly proud of your success with this collection and can’t wait to own it 🙂
Thank you so much, Lauren!
So pumped up for your collab, Christine!!
If those swatches could talk, they’d be singin’ like angels!!
Congratulations!!
You give so much…you truly deserve all the good that comes your way, and more!!
Excuse me while I go set my alarm now…
You are too kind, Lyn! Thank you!
Congratulations Christine! This is so exciting. I hope it is a brilliant release the sells out quickly – but only after I buy it first! 🥳 ❤️
Thank you, Valerie!
I absolutely cannot wait to give you all my money.
You are too sweet, Courtney! Thank you!
OMG I’m so excited for you! Definitely getting these! Can’t wait!
Love your creative eye and ability to combine colors, like pieces of art!
Thanks a lot, Irena 😀
YES!!! GIVE IT ALL TO ME!
Seriously though, congratulations! I’m so happy for you. I want all three, and I can’t wait. This release is truly something special.
Aww, thank you so much, Rachel!
So excited!!!! Thank you!
Woohoo!
Can’t wait to try these! Beautiful colors!
Thank you, Jessie!
Great news! I hope to be able to buy it as a Birthday present to myself (June 20th) before it sells out.
I hope you can! They are making a ton!
OH THIS IS SO EXCITING!! Congratulations!!
Thanks, Sarah! 🙂
This is so exciting, yay!! Setting an alarm now!
Congratulations!! Btw, this is some of the most beautiful packaging I think I’ve ever seen!
Thank you, Mags!
These prices are great. I am looking forward to the reveal and getting to try these on!
YAY! Thanks, Kira!
Woohoo!! I am super pumped for you! Cant wait for the full reveal. 💕
Me neither! If I had the official palettes in my possession, you would have the reveal already, lol! The wait is hard for all of us!
This is the collection I’m most looking forward to!!
Thank you, Sarah!
Can’t wait for the swatches! Congratulations <3
Thanks a lot, Sonia!
Yes! I trust you and I trust Sydney Grace eyeshadow. What more can I ask for! Congratulations!!!
Honestly, their formula being so consistent is one of the best parts!
I can’t wait!!! 😀
YAY!
This is just SO exciting and the recognition you deserve for your total taste and understanding when it comes to makeup and especially eyeshadows. I can’t wait to see these. And “Dear Reader” – those of us who love Jane Austen and the Brontes will have extra incentive to buy THAT single!
Thank you so much for all your support, Mariella!
Finally!
This would likely be the only eyeshadow palette I get this year 😀
(Got too many last year haha)
Wow! I feel so special! Thank you, Frost 🙂
I am marking my calendar!
Yay!!
Congratulations Christine Looking forward to seeing all the swatches
Thank you, Carolyn!
I cannot wait to get my hands on these! Between your color stories and the palette art, I know these will be cherished.
I bought a large number of single shadows during their July sale last year and have been so eager for your collaboration. They truly have an incredible formula and I’m glad they have been so amazing to work with to get the colors just right.
Yay! I’m thrilled you’ve been enjoying their formula, Cynthia!
Hi l am so excited for this launch, congrats
Thanks, Marla!
I’m really excited for you, Christine, and for everyone who has been following you for all this time, just waiting for this day to come. I’m new here, but I’m already like, “If Christine made it, I need it!” I am definitely going to get as many as I can afford!
Thank you for the support, Jo! Hope the color stories draw you in!
I am here for ALL OF IT!!!!! 💙🧡❤♥️💚💜
YAY!
Congratulations Christine! No one deserves this as much as you. Ive set my alarm and calendar so that ill be able to order as soon as it goes live. I cant wait to see the colors you’ve chosen.
You’re too sweet! Thank you, ShariP!
I’ve written the date in my planner and my debit card is ready when you are! LOL I haven’t bought much makeup since last year (except for Colourpop’s The Child palette), so this is very exciting!
That’s impressive! Thank you, Aspasia!
This is really exciting and I cant wait to see these in person and to use them! I hope they don’t sell out too fast!
Fingers crossed!
Yes!!!! I have been waiting to find out the date. I am so excited. And can’t wait to see them all. I already know ima have a hard time picking one lol
For sure! I can’t pick just one myself, LOL!
I’m so dang excited about this collab!!! Don’t be nervous, it’s going to be AMAZING! 🙌😍
Aww <3 Thank you for the reassurance, Mandy!
CONGRATS on your collection, Christine! This must feel kind of like a graduation (all that work, and then it’s over)!
My guess for Dear Reader is that middle duochrome coral-pink that flashes yellow-green (if my monitor is accurate), because that’s the one that looks like The Greatest Gift on steroids, which is how you described something I (and lots of others) asked about. Did I get it right?
It’s not! That shade is The Mielke Way and is in Quintessence.
Dear Reader is one of the shades from the bottom left video of the lavender swatches! I was deciding on the last shade, named Temptalia, and there was just a ton of love for two of them but the most popular one I did not feel suited the overall color story as well as the second.
Now I really can’t wait to see them!!
Congrats!!! That sound we all hear is Urban Decay crying, since this looks way more vibrant, interesting, and pigmented than anything in the Prince Collection. Also, the price point is better than I expected, so thanks to whoever made that happen! Early birthday present for myself, methinks.
I was thinking about your collab just yesterday, and now the news came.
I’m so happy for you being able to realize what must have been a dream, and for us who will be able to use that dream to, sort of make our own.
I haven’t bought much from SG as the shipping is quite brutally expensive from the US to EU, then follows the tax and fees and the whatnots, but this time I do not care, all of the palettes will be mine, and Dear Reader as well.
I’ve not bought much makeup this year, actually hardly any, waiting for this release.
I am so excited, and can hardly wait. LOL! I swear I’ll even use teals and blues generally those colours are out of my comfort zone, but now might be the time to expand.
The international availability/cost to access was the only downside to working with SG, but on balance, I also felt like it was likely to be an issue with even brands who, technically, have better global distribution – there are US brands but often, when they collab they’ll only launch in the US!
I’m hoping to get information on the weights of ordering one, two, or three palettes, so I can get some preliminary postage rates for at least a half dozen countries.
For this release I don’t care about the shipping cost, because these palettes are an absolute must have for me.
There may be brands with lower shipping costs, but I’d much rather pay a bit more even on the shipping, to get the quality.
I think, without even having seen the palettes themselves this will be the most beautiful of makeup products. The artwork on them is the best tribute to the lovely Mellan, and in a sense to all our dogs and pets in the past and presence.
I would actually love to have the artwork as a poster, it is that beautiful.
I am so very happy for you and can’t wait for the reveal! It will be a smash hit for sure and I will be sitting refreshing the site like crazy on the day 🙂 Sending you lots of love.
Super excited about this! Sydney Grace is awesome and so are you, Christine!
Wow, this is phenomenally gorgeous and will sell out in an instant! Congratulations! 👏🏼 🎉
I only hope at some stage I can get all of them in UK! 👍🏼🥰
So excited for you! And I love that it’s launching on my birthday.
Wow, Christine! This labour of love is nearly in final form. Congratulations!!!
Ahhh! Congrats and I can’t wait to see the official (and full) photos!
First influence collaboration I’ve been excited for in a while! Love you!!!
That will be my first purchase here 😀
I am so excited, hopefully they have enough palettes made for everyone to get one. I am planning on picking up the bundle of all 3 palettes plus the single shadow. Even with colors i dont usually wear (blue, red, warmer browns) you make them look so gorgeous that im wanting to try them out, and I know your created shades are going to be absolutely gorgeous
Yesssss, can’t wait! I rarely comment, but I’ve been following your blog for, uhhhhh, gosh at least 12??? years now and I’m so excited for you, and to try Sydney Grace shadows, and to spend my money on something that is going to be worth every penny. Congratulations, Christine!
Can’t wait!!!! Going to buy one palette. Not sure which to get first though!! I’m cool toned NC15 in Winter, NW20 in summer with brown eyes and blonde hair. Any advice? Those teals look stunning.
I’m excited to see the full preview! If I want to purchase all three, will I be able to choose for each palette the light or dark option or does it have to be a full group in light or dark?
OMG how did I miss this post. I’m so excited that you have a release date!! Can’t wait to get your new palettes. So cool that there’s a deep version, yay!!!
YAY! 😀
