New Holiday IT kit

Makupnut — Sun, 01 Nov 2015 13:24:52 GMT

Hello ladies. I was wondering. There's a new IT Holiday kit up and I have the old one. The eye shadows look the same as this one but the new one looks to have new lip colors. Can anyone help me figure out if the colors are the same. There's no description of the shades when you look it up. Thanks.

Hi makupnut- I'm afraid I don't have an answer for you but could you kindly tell how you like last years palette please? I thought I heard Jamie say this is their first palette like this but I may be wrong- I usually steer away from big palettes like this thanks!

I got this kit last year from the IT website, and I'm pretty sure this is the same kit. It was sold exclusively on the Canadian shopping channel the past two years, so it is new in the US. Last year the IT site had a quick pop us sale on this.

To anyone thinking about purchasing - I love this kit and it is a very good value. The eye shadow colors are all good neutrals. The blushes and highligher are great. My only negative is the lip colors are really small.

I got this even though I don't need it and am having guilty feelings. I have and use most of the stuff in this kit and love the neutral eye palette. I won't be using any of the red lipsticks though. Thought its was nice to throw in an overnight bag. Can't believe more people haven't responded to this thread.

I was just going to start a thread about this item!! I ordered it too. I do like IT but have only used a couple things that I really liked. I checked to see if there was more of this type of pallet from other brands and none of them had as much in it like this one, altho there is no eyebrow, liner or mascara, but those things store easliy with brushes. I'm going on a trip in Jan and wanted something compact to take and that was a good brand. Otherwise I have too many individual pieces to try to pack and then they always come open and make a mess. Looking forward to this. I like the colors too.

@Makupnut

This kit contains the Blurred Lines Lipstick. Last year it was the Vitality Lipstick. The colors may be similar but not the same kit.

I recorded the part where Carolyn held it up and turned it around where the name of each color is.

Lip colors are different in this one on the Q. Eye shadows seem to be the same colors.

There are mini brushes inside the kit too.

It's great for travel but I've hardly used mine since I got it a couple of years ago.

agree about the lips. comparing the '14 pic online to the qvc '15 pics they look exactly alike. will be interested to see if anyone gets the new one and can say for sure. odd imho to switch lips but give same eye shades.

I got this palette last year as a Black Friday deal. It was much cheaper than listed now. I returned it. The e/s were nice, the lip glosses were super small and the rest was just so-so. It's a small palette.

thanks for the info ladies. I'm glad that the "end of January" return policy is in effect. I'll see how I like it and return it if needed.

This looks almost identical to the IT palette I bought from their website last year. I live in the US. It was available here and not only Canada. I don't know why Jamie kept saying it was brand new and that they never had done a palette like this.

I did get a reply back from IT on the "book" site. They did say the eye shadows are the same and the lip colors are new.

Glad I didn't get it. I don't need the same kit, just new lip colors.

If you don't already have the old one then I think you'll be happy with this one.

The eyeshadows are all very much in the brown--beige family with one navyish color and a black. I purchased this from her website last year at a discounted rate.

I have not really used it much. It does have a mixture of matte and shimmer shadows but they are all very blah.

The kit also has an odd layout making some of the products difficult to use with a brush (center powders that are white and bronze). The kit is about 4x4x2 closed just to give you an idea of the size.

There is a lot of product if you like brown eyeshadows---I mean would it kill them to branch out? I swear even if I buy a purple shadow from It when I apply the shadow is comes across as STILL in the brown family. I have all of her shadow pallette's and almost ALL of the colors look the same on me. I use a primer and that does not help so maybe I just have to take a step back from It.
