I may order the palette tomorrow. I’m trying decide whether to order from Pat’s site or Sephora. I know Pat’s site was slow with the last palette release but it seems like there was a Sephora issue too. Anyone remember what it was?

Sephora sent out the Subliminal palette to almost everyone who ordered the Sublime palette.

YIKES! That sounds like a barcode/item number issue rather than having a similar name. Still, that is a doozy of a mistake to make...repeatedly!

Indeed! They immediately refunded my money, but still made me return the palette. [MENTION=61168]Haven[/MENTION] had a dickens of a time at first, but then ended up with two free palettes, I believe.

Oh wow! Most people I saw on IG got to keep their wrong palettes and were sent the correct one also.

I need some truth-talking: are these really worth it?? I’m strongly debating grabbing this one, though I am a little put out that it seems there’s not 1 or 2 mattes.

In my humble opinion, they aren’t. I bought and returned Sublime (the cooler one...I think that’s the name) and Subversive. The colors are pretty and they are great quality but I just didn’t make use of all the colors. The majority of them have some level of sparkle and just weren’t something that I could make use of on a daily basis.

The Natasha Denona Lila and Sunset palettes are a better deal. You get more in the palette and the colors are more wearable.

Really!? Nice to know I owned ND but none of Path McGrath

Three free palettes total from Sephora. Two subliminal palettes and one sublime palette.

Plus after getting frustrated with Sephora CS I ordered sublime from Pat McGrath’s site. This was before Sephora sent me a free sublime. So I have two sublime palettes.

It was a horrible experience with Sephora CS (kept being sent the wrong palette by CS), but I ended up with three free palettes.

Thanks for the info. I still can't decide. I would think palette mix up would not be a problem since only one is releasing. I was thinking maybe there was a breakage issue or something. I'm still wary of Sephora but you can't beat the 2 day shipping. Ugh! I guess I'll just see how I feel when it is time to order. Thanks guys.

Thanks for the feedback. I just replenished my Bite lip balm in November so I think I am good...I always flirt with things that are new and packaged fabulously.

I just ordered 2 of the new lipsticks as she sent out an early access code. I was strongly considered the coral one but I need to see swatches plus I already have tropicalia which I love, so its probably good that I didn't get it.

Polariod pink I'm hoping is not a barbie pink but can work with various skin tones. Its suppose to be midtone which should mean its not heavily cool even though it is blue based. So I'll just have to see when I get it how it works out, fingers crossed. I'm not really worried about full blooded as its a shade that I'm sure will be flattering and maybe a concern could be if it applies evenly and not patchy which happens with a lot of dark shade lipsticks.

I really wish she did some swatches but oh well I've already pulled the trigger. lol

Sugar & Spice · Jan 18, 2018

There are swatches on Pats Instagram story from when she went live and I made the right decision. The coral lipstick is basically a matte version of tropicalia, the swatch on Pat look exactly how Tropicallia looks on me, so I was right to trust my gut on that one.

Polariod pink appears that it has a very good chance of being universally flattering looking at the swatch and full blooded was exactly what I thought it would be. Now the waiting game begins lol.

I'm waiting for the lipsticks but they aren't available at Sephora yet.

Sugar & Spice · Jan 19, 2018

After seeing the swatches I decided to order Femme Bot as well just in case Polariod Pink doesn't work out.

They are available today! There are a few that I have my eye on, but I'm passing for now and waiting for more swatches.

I ordered four of them in the morning! I thought of Venus in Furs too, but I think it's pretty dark for me. I chose Femme Bot instead. I think it's brighter than Venus in Furs. Hopefully I am right. Haha

I ordered Venus in Furs too and it shipped already. Looks like my kind of nude. Femme Bot looks darker. I want to get Modern Woman too but I am waiting for swatches.
