I really want the Pretty Grunge palette… but I can’t bring myself to spend $70 on an eyeshadow palette (especially since I don’t make a lot of money). I’ve seen a lot of influencers love it, but that may also be because they didn’t pay the $70 for it LMFAO
Here’s a link to the palette: https://www.sephora.com/product/pretty-grunge-eyeshadow-palette-P507079?skuId=2691350
I could have written this comment. Also into the Pretty Grunge. Also love Viseart the most. The first Pretty Grunge I ordered had a glitter that broke and came out of the pan, Sephora sent me a second one free. I wish I could share my extra palette with OP! It definitely is awesome for the sort of lavender/cool neutrals. Orangey neutrals are not it to me for day to day.
And so many so-called neutrals are so orange! It’s the reason I never quite got all the way to “love” with Huda’s Rose Quartz palette - the browner shades make a nice color story in the pan, but on my face they pull all the way into Cheetos territory. Which definitely works for some people, but unfortunately I am not one of them.
Funnily enough, my Pretty Grunge arrived intact but with one of the glitters trying like hell to make an escape. I wouldn’t be surprised if it’s a common issue, I have to imagine that formulating glitter eyeshadow to be workable on the face but still able to maintain structural integrity in the pan is a major challenge.
It sure is. I’ve worked years in the beauty industry. Glitter shadow has no place in a little tiny pan in a palette. It falls apart in shipping and quickly crumbles with use—it can’t survive in there for long. But makeup is sold as much by pretty product shots and swatches on social media as it is by function these days, so it’s there. Because it’s pretty to post and people expect it at this point.
I wish you could share the old one with me too! That would be fantastic 🤣🤣 thank you for the thought though, that’s so sweet of you! I’m glad Sephora sent you a new one and didn’t just refund you :D
