L’Oreal Launches La Plum and La Pink Lip Palettes But Ouch the Price!
L’Oreal La Palette Lip are now available in two new shades of La Plum and La Pink. The original lip palettes launched earlier this year for Spring 2016 and honestly, I thought they were a one off. None the less I hauled both and actually really, really liked them. I’m not a fond lip palette girl as I find them messy but both were quite nice!
So sure, I’m excited about the launch of two new ones! The original palettes were $11.99 each at Bed, Bath, and Beyond and included five shades each. One was a nude selection and the other was a plum selection. As with many drugstore items lately, L’Oreal does raise the price alarmingly on these new version at $16.99 for eight shades. They are currently offered as Buy 1, Get 1 50% Off at Ulta.com but I have to admit I still winced at the price tag. Revlon recently priced their Eyes, Lips, + Cheek Palette at $17.99 each which I felt was a bit absurd. Seems like you really have to aim for sales and clip coupons to get a good deal at the drugstore lately! Maybelline’s Lip Palette which launched last year for $11.99 that turned out to be limited edition was a deal in comparison as it too, contained eight shades but was $11.99. It just boggles my mind a little bit how drugstore prices continue to rise.
But I’ll digress from my ranting and give you a few more deets on these palettes. Both palettes contains mix and match shades in three finishes that include creams, mattes, and highlighting/sheerer shades and each follows a pink or plum color scheme with the plum looking like it contains the more deeper shades!
I’m not sure I’m yet willing to dish out near $20 on a lip palette from L’Oreal but having tried the original ones maybe they can convince me.
What do you think of the new La Palette Lip shades?
