I wasn't going to get one but feel like I should lol. I see this year they're doing XL bags for double the value.

Ha! Love it. I think I'm actually going to skip this year. I bought it last year hoping for a Natasha Denona e/s palette and I got one I was planning to order, so I was happy. But this year there's nothing I have my eye on. Plus I'm not feeling very lucky these days.

I've never tried the lucky bag before so I think I'll try it this year.

Wow! That's awesome!! I ordered the smaller one, too. I just found out it shipped so I'll probably get it early next week. Are you happy with it?

I actually have not tried any of these products before, so I am cautiously optimistic. If that makes sense LOL. I almost splurged on the bronze and glow before, but the price tag held me back. (If my memory serves me right. I have too big of a stash that I suppose it could be hiding in there). The promised value of the products is definitely there.

Wow, that was the smaller bag!? Nice. I feel like you may have gotten a bonus lucky item since your value is pretty high.
I got the XL, and it'll be here Tuesday. Boooo ground shipping!!!

Based on the Instagram photos I've seen thus far of the lucky bags, it seems I made the right choice to skip. Each one I saw was impressive (regular & XL), but as expected, I own ~90% of the products already!
Still a good way to get discounted products to give as gifts.
I think Beautylish did a great job with these this year.

I was surprised to get the LE bronze and glow. The xl bags that I have seen received the large Natasha denona eyeshadow palette!
Product update: I tried the atelier eyeshadow palette today and really liked it! Fortunately I got a fairly neutral everyday palette, and the quality and pigment are high. I also really like the brush. Haven't tried the other items yet.

ahhhhhhh, omg. I have the green/brown one. So, I'm hoping it's the other one then. Or the new star one. I have been avoiding looking at IG to be totally surprised. Fingers crossed for me then.
Glad you're liking your items so far!

ohhh so awesome!
So my order arrived today. The Makeup Atelier foundation's going back. The shade I bought (FLW1B) is a bit too dark, and the undertone is all sorts of wrong on me. (Ugh, the bane of my makeup shopping life.) I don't think mixing it with a white foundation would make a difference. Shame because I like the texture.
The rest of the stuff (Inglot brow liner, OCC n/p) is staying, and I'm excited to use them!
I also received a sample vial of Charlotte Tilbury's Scent of a Dream. Haven't tried it yet, though.

Lucky Bag Haul:
-Makeup Atlier palette-$35
-Wayne Goss #2 brush-$35
-by Terry Baum de rose (tinted: coral)-$56
-Oribe Gold Dust Dry Shampoo-$22
-Anna Sui compact mirror-$28
-bioderma sensibio 100ml-$6.90
My promised value is there (barely), and I will use most of it. I think I technically got a bonus item since 6, but the mirror (while cute) is a joke a useless. No one would pay $28 for this thing, and I would have much preferred a nicer item in my 5 or a usable 6th item.
So I'm meh on these. Not disappointed exactly, but would not have bought ahead of time knowing the contents. They definitely strategically package these, IMO. They just looked so good last year, and so many people got ND palettes. Not doing the regular ones again. Did not get a chance for XL, but probably won't do that either.

That's so sad. If you had purchased the XL and received one of the 28 pan ND palettes, would you have been happy?

I'm not sure, TBH. I don't know what I was really expecting...to be blown away? I did go poking at reviews, and people seem happy with the MA palettes. Having so much of my value be a lip balm (even if luxe brand) and then the mirror is just kinda a let down.
The palette i recieved is a very wearable, neutral one. I've been wanting to try the Oribe. I love my WG brushes and do not have the #2. They should have just sprung for a full-size bioderma, but I love it, and the travel size will be useful. It's a fine box. I'm mostly being whiny...sorry everyone.
I cant wait to hear what Lauren gets in her biggie.
