Bobbi Brown: Customize Your Own Palette
If you follow me around Cozy you might have noticed I posted about these on the Bobbi Brown thread!
If not you got me babbling about them here on my blog!
These are an interesting concept and since my obsession with Bobbi Brown lately you know that I want to try these out but the price makes me cringe slightly!
First of all these are completely well thought out as the color selection is vast so it’s not a flash in the pan money making scheme. They actually considered this a while prior to releasing them. I love that they have a nice good array of color.
What are they?
Basically you’ll be purchasing an empty quad or trio which you can fill with any combination of blushes or eyeshadows of your own personal choice!
Items available are shimmer eyeshadows, shimmer blushes, and standard blushes and eyeshadows.
The shimmer shadows and blushes are of course something I am highly interested in trying out for myself!
At the moment there are at least 30 shades of shadow available. That number is without the shimmer shadows so the choices and variety are fantastic!
Price wise is where I am slightly raising my eyebrows. An empty quad or trio is $10 USD…mmm not too bad but nearly twice the amount of a standard MAC quad. Blushes are $22 USD each and Eyeshadows are $20 USD.
Break that down with a quad and you’re looking at say over $90 USD for one blush and three eyeshadows.
Bobbi I love you, I really love you but I don’t love a $90 palette!
Holy cow!
If you went the cheaper route and decided on a trio one blush and two eyeshadows would run you over $70 USD!
Wow.
As much as I am wanting these the price tag is just a tiny bit too high for the Muse!
Love ’em, yes. Price Tag, not feeling it at all!
Want these?
Good deal?
Bad deal?
Tell the Muse!
