I got all three of the highlighter duos and the Summer Nights lip trio. I really thought the day set would be the one I picked, but two of the colors in that remind me of the glosses I have from her holiday collection. Snake Skin really sold me on that trio. The lightest highlighter duo, Sand Castle and Mint’d Mojito were not given any justice in photos. Everything is so beautiful that I want to throw it all on my face at once. I skipped the liquid shadow duos. I didn't realize one end is a shadow and the other is a topper. Testing them on my hand I didn't really care for the way either of them looked together. I wish I could've just gotten the rose gold shadow and the bronze shadow together without the toppers. Oh well, I spent enough money anyway.

Yup. I ended up waking up early, ordered a shadow stick and the sangria/mimosa Killawatt online and went to the event to swatch everything else.


I did not expect to fall in love with SandCastle and Mint Mojito.

I left the event with the other two Killawatts and I’m debating getting the other shadow stick


Was never interested in the glosses. The Glossbomb and a little of the Killawatt does wonders.

I ordered the sand castle mint highlighter duo. I was going to wait and swatch in store but FOMO got to me. I won’t have the time or energy to go to Sephora until the weekend.

Now I have ordered one lipgloss set, one highlighter duo, and one eyeshadow duo from the summer collection.

My mint duo is going back to Sephora. It's very shimmer but I can make that work. The problem is the fallout - I had flecks of shimmer all over after I put it on my eyes. I washed my face, used eye makeup remover, showered this morning and I can still see some shimmer. I don't need that getting into my eyes and on my contacts.

THANK YOU FOR THIS. That really grinds my gears.

Wow really? I used the duo yesterday and got no fallout. I used one of those eyeshadow guards that I learned I needed because of those super soft Anastasia shadows. It didn’t fall onto my face during the day either. I wear contacts and learned that I need to put them in after makeup even though that’s annoying as hell. Sorry it didn’t work for you because I’ve had annoying fallout on my face before. The worst is when it settles under your eyes.

It was a spur of the moment thing when I tried them on so I wasn't super careful and didn't use primer. Still i put very little on my brush and finger and got fall out. Unfortunately, I without my contacts, I can't see anything. I would have to get right up in the mirror and wouldn't have the room to apply makeup. O well...this wasn't meant to be.

I definitely understand that. I've been tapping my mirror with my brush sometimes when putting on my makeup. The product definitely wouldn't work without primer for sure. It's not my fave for the eyes but I figured why not to get the bang for my buck.

Due to a glitch in Sephora's system, they had the palette available for a short time yesterday. I was able to place an order and it should be delivered today. I'm sure I have dupes of all the colors but I have no impulse control and couldn't resist. Eye shadow palettes are my weakness. If I don't like it back to Sephora it goes.

This will be a skip for me (as will the rest of the release) I firmly have my impulse buying in check right now ;)
I will be interested to hear what everyone thinks about it who does purchase.

Early yesterday morning around 7AM pst. I didn't recognize it as a glitch, I assumed it was a surprise release and would also be available in store so I didnt bother ordering..I was just going to go into the store and check it out. I'm kicking myself now, especially after seeing the swatches. I assumed anyone who managed to place an order would've had their orders canceled.

Same here. I want this palette and the Becca Chrissy Teigen highlighter bronzer thing.

Do I need this Rihanna palette? Absolutely not. Do I think it will make me look like a Middle Eastern goddess with the Moroccan inspired names? YES!

Ooh I really like those swatches. I've been really busy lately and just saw the info on the pop up shop today. Too late now. I would have gone earlier in the week. Oh well, I'll wait for the release. Too much coming out right now. We'll see if it'll make the cut in the end.
