Kat Von D’s Serpentina palette; the way the release was handled was frustrating, and I don’t know why it was released in such small batches, which made it seem like it was selling out in minutes when now it seems like there is plenty of stock to go around. Then, to make matters worse, the...
Anastasia Beverly Hills, because they actually released a really high-quality, somewhat unique palette (Modern Renaissance) and made it permanent – but they also made plenty of stock to keep it on the shelves even during the initial release.
