Depotting Time & Easy DIY Hello Kitty Palette

Tweet

Hello my lovely Dolls! ;)

I wanted to share my depotting adventures with you today lol. The shadows that I depotted were a gift from my sister  for Christmas which was the Flirt! Cosmetics 40 Eyeshadow palette. I'm very late on depotting these. Flirt! is from the same company as MAC and Estee Lauder. I love these shadows, they are very pigmented and are easy to blend. From what I know Flirt! can be purchased at Kohl's but unfortunately here in Hawaii, we don't have a Kohl's so I was very happy to receive this from my sister. I usually depot my shadows with my flat iron but I didn't need to use any heat for these because they popped right out of the plastic packaging. I wasn't able to fit all 40 of the shadows into one MAC palette so there are 20 from Flirt! in each palette and I had to add 6 more MAC shadows to fill them up, some of which are pro. There is one that got cracked, as you can see in the picture, which devastated me lol. 95% of my MAC shadows are still in the pots but after this depotting session I am strongly considering depotting the rest of my MAC shadows. They're so much easier to look for this way. I prefer to take out the 15-pan insert so I can fit 26 shadows, I'm all about consolidation, more room for more makeup! lol.

These gorgeous eyeshadow palettes have been swarming across beauty blogs and youtube channels for months. I first heard about these palettes from the lovely G. at nouveaucheap.blogspot.com. I absolutely love her blog. If you haven't already, please do give it a peep. =)

Apparently these palettes are hard to find. So far, I have read that they are and will be available at Walgreens, CVS and Rite-Aid. However, here in Hawaii, we only have CVS (formerly known as Long's Drugs) and Walgreens. I started my search for these palettes about a month ago. I had asked the sales associates about them and they simply responded that they didn't have them in yet. So I gave my number to 2 of my local Walgreens stores and requested that they give me a call as soon as they got their shipments. Just the other day, I had called one of the stores to ask if they got them yet. She put me on hold then came to the phone and proceeded to tell me that their display was all out. (insert dropped-jaw face here lol) I told her that I had left my number with an associate and that she taped it inside the cabinet underneath their cash register. I explained to her that I requested to be notified by phone as soon as they received the palettes. She apologized and told me that she would also let the department manager know. I then called the other Walgreens just to check on their status as well, and she too, said they didn't receive it yet. :(
