Love the sephora collection. Received a nude collection from avon (mark) for christmas. It has sparkle and colors are great. Cant wait to get a set in matte nude colors for work.

I would have to disagree. In the other palettes there are ZERO duds I own the first 2 (thebalm & NYX) They are amazing palettes!! Thebalm is more of a warmer palette in all where the NYX is a mix of warm but mainly cooler tone shadows. Plus they are way cheaper than the critically aclaimed Urban decay Naked Palettes which i own the 1st one and never have a complaint on :)
The Lorac Palette out of the bunch is the warmest palette of them all and more golden tones which makes it so striking and vividly beautiful!!!

If I had to choose, Lorac all the way. It's the queen of the group, and every single shadow would get used. In other palettes there are too many dud's.

i've heard great things about the balm palette... but i have my own favorites hehe
this palette isn't new but the too-faced matte eye palette has great neutral tones. it has grey, lavender, navy, charcoal, light and dark brown. and then there are 3 light highlight shades that also work as eyeshadows. ugh i can't get over how they're all matte!

I have the BH cosmetics neutral palette, so I'm pretty much good. Lol although the NYX palette looks yummy.

When I'm in a pinch, I love going to these since they're all in one palette! I'm so glad they've come out with a wide selection of colors.
