I went to get my brows waxed at my local Sephora. As I was getting them done, I noticed the YSL cheek palettes at the corner of my eye and knew I needed to check it out when I was done. Through my service, two employees walked by and talked about how much they want the palette and how quickly the light/medium sold out. One of them said, “so what, are we getting them like two at a time or something?” And the other employee responded, “probably. We didn’t get many, but I think we’re getting more later.”

When my brows were done, I walked over and saw that they only had the medium/dark palette out, but I had to check if other sephoras in the city had some available after hearing they were getting palettes is small batches. Sure enough, another Sephora that’s actually closer to me (but doesn’t do brow services) had it in stock and I put it in my buy and pickup later cart soooooo fast. I’ve heard so many reviews that this year’s palettes are significantly better than last year and I really wanted it; so, if that’s how you’re feeling, be on the lookout!!!

Best of luck beauties 💕💕💕

Edit for those talking about price:

Honestly, if you’re using all the colors, which I am, it’s a massive savings if you look at the cost per ounce.

The palette is 5.7 oz total at $85 which makes it 14.91 per ounce.

One blush is only .21 oz which makes it 219 per ounce, meaning you’d have to buy 4.76 singles to get the same amount as the palette. So if you don’t love every shade in the palette, it would be worth getting colors you love.

I 100% agree that if you think you’re not going to use all the colors, SKIP. If you know you will, it’s an absolute steal based on the math alone.

Also it’s my birthday sooooo it’s treat yoself day for me ☺️

I have brown eyes and medium - medium/tan throughout the year. My favorite eyeshadow color is purple, but purple pigments are so hard to find. I remember hearing the reason why from Morgan Turner sometime ago, but that’s beside the point. I’m here to ask: where do you get your favorite purple, well pigmented, eyeshadows. They can be singles, palettes, quads, you name it! My favorites so far have come from Blend Bunny, so think that kind of pigmented, if you’re familiar. Bonus points if you’ve got a swatch 💜✨ This Kaleidos quad is at the top of my to buy list.

A while back, Emily Harper posted a lip combo she was replicating using Huda Beauty’s Blush Filter in shade Strawberry Latte. I loved it as a blush already, so when I tried it on my lips, I wasn’t surprised that I loved it as a lip shade too. I could keep using it as a lippie, but I wanted to see if anyone had any recommendations of a shade dupe in an actual lipstick for the convenience of keeping it in my purse and easier application.
