Anyone heard of this brand? I saw that Hautelook will be having a sale on their products and some of it looks exactly like Coastal Scents/BH Cosmetics.

Their Professional 88 eyeshadow palette is listed as $55.00 but is "on sale" for $25.00.

It looks just like the Coastal Scents original palette which is listed for $18.95!

Hopefully the Hautelook prices will be far less than Coastal Scents or BH Cosmetics prices otherwise it's a complete bust.

They've sold stuff on Hautelook and BeautyStory.com before and I tried to do a little research myself. As far as I can tell they're an oversees brand in possibly Asia I believe and I've only seen them on sample sale type sites. Unless they sell to other companies and those companies put a private label on them, I haven't come across them yet anywhere else! I also haven't seen any posts on them in blogs and forums aside from "does anyone know about this company?". I think the palettes went for close to the same price as on their site . . . maybe $20? I could be wrong, but I don't remember them being insanely cheap for an unknown company. Sorry i don't know more!

The sale is now live and the prices are dreadful.

$19.50 retail: $55.00
88 All Shimmer Eyeshadow Palette

Basically the same price as Coastal Scents plus an excessive shipping/handling fee ($5.95).

There is nothing on the "sale" page that's a good deal. It's either the same price as BH Cosmetics or Coastal Scents OR within a few cents of those companies every day prices. On top of it, the products are exactly the same.

duh i just opened this same convo - silly I didn;t see it :) it does look like CS or BH - has anyone purchased before? I can't imagine paying 'the original price' of 55!!!!

Haven't bought. I already have Coastal Scents palettes but it's virtually the exact same products. I can't see any differences in their products at all.

With HauteLook prices you have to go compare it to either the vendor's own website OR to competitors. In Red Ginger's case their products are the same as Coastal Scents and BH Cosmetics. Some prices are the same as CS/BH but a few are lower (like the 120 palette).

I just got the 180 pallet for giggles as well as the lip color pallet.
From what I've heard this brand goes on sale pretty often on hautelook, I'll let you guys know once it comes! :)
