ohh right! that's what you meant eh. sometimes it's good to do research first before buying it. haha! on youtube there are many guru who are using coastal scents and also non coastal scent but they are all using the same products manufactured by the same manufacturer. i thought of buying it from ebay. when you say brandless, do you mean without brand or the brand is not famous?


oh well... the brandless i mean was there are really no brand stated in the cosmetic box. it actually worries me... but never mind. i have ordered some coastal scents product for me. lolz... for those which are not really famous but selling the same palette are usually selling it at a higher price compared to Coastal Scents. I have done some research also... hehe...

haha! really? but you can check out ebay.. mostly are much cheaper than what coastal scents are selling. hehe!

hehe okay... i will check on them lar... then when my coastal scents palette arrive i will tell you whether they work well on me or not... lolz...
my fren actually wanna get some palette from coastal scents too... maybe i will ask her to get it from ebay... thanks~

Dear, u mean manly and wales 120 colour pallet is it?
Ebay is cheap but sometimes due to shipping, the pallet breaks. A few seller also selling in lyn with competitive pricing...sigh, it's so hard to do business in lyn these days. So much competition! Wondering where else can i sell my things...

nope, i am talking about the coastal scents palette. i just love them so much!! lolz...
btw... what are you selling?

yeah sure. do tell me that. the reason why i have been saying that i wanted to buy this palette since last year yet i haven't buy it is due to doubt. i don't think i will use many of the colors from that palette as my everyday make up consists of some colors. the colors that i frequently use is pink, purple, earthy colors.. sometimes green perhaps.. but other than that... i don't really use other colors. it will be a waste of money for me i guess. hahah!

pigmentation wise, i know that palette is pigmented and i don't really like to use pigmented colors. i mean not too pigmented. if you have used majorlica majorca's or lavshuca's eye shadow before, you will know what i am talking about. those are the level of pigmentation that i don't mind. hehe!

hope you will enjoy the palette

oh... i will see how pigmented the cs palette is, cuz i never try before, lolz. i think i tested majorlica majorca's eyeshadow before, i would love the cs will work the same or slightly more than them. hehe will update you after i get my pallete. lolz.. still waiting for it to come to me!! >.< if you often use those colours, i can suggest the cs mania palette or the warm palette. i think those are the colours that you will like... hehe

you could find fake maybellines and loreals at pasar mlm as well. even cheap drugstore brands also people will find ways to imitate for profit.

yeah i have seen those palettes but too many different tones for one color. haha! i doubted i would use all of it.. so, i will be unlikely to buy any of those palettes. however, if one day, i have nothing else to buy, i might buy 1 palette to try out.. but will get it from ebay instead of coastal scents.

lolz!!

anyway, thx for telling so much info about these palette, maybe one day i will try buying it from a cheaper place rather than cs? lolz...

^ btw, do you know who is manwomanfilm on youtube? she uses manly 120 palette at some of her tutorials as well. you can check it out if you want to.

I have been 'eyeing' the Coastal Scents warm palette for the past few months. If I do get it, i should be disciplined to not buy anymore eyeshadows for a long time. But yeah, I have come across these beautiful palettes from ebay even before CS brand but don't trust the quality. Since makeup does enter the blood stream and directly touches the skin for many hours, I would rather pay more for Ori products altho I am also a bit cautious that CS palettes are from China.

My next move...wait for CS to have discount and see if there are any sprees. I wonder how often they have discounts.

There are so many fake products eventhough they are the best form of flattery some are so similar it is hard to tell. But perhaps after using the product you can tell from the quality.

How do i get a listing of sprees going on? I tried doing a search but the results are very few if any!

I think... i think.... i think.... cs palette will be alright... i trusted them and i've ordered myself one... just hoping that they will not disappoint me... >.<

hey there, I have came across Strawberry Girl who are doing pre-order. I have purchase some ELF items from her and i personally think that she is a good seller. She just started her batch 2 spree for cs now... Here's the link: cs spree
Try to check her out~~~

Hope this helps..

if i were to go into all those make up going into blood stream and stuffs, there will be lots of argument with not just the 120 palette from coastal scents or those so-call unoriginal brands such as beauty factories or manly out there (which you guys called it) but also MANY branded cosmetics out there too.

sigh... all the best then.

ohh and btw, if you are one of those cosmetics lovers who love to buy cosmetics all the time... you know like those guru on youtube.. trust me, even once you have bought the palette, you WILL still buy others eye shadows out there no matter how much you want to resist.

i am sort of proud of myself.. the last time i ever bought eye shadow was early this year when i went to taiwan, i bought whole lots! until now, i haven't buy anything even though watsons is having promo for fasio, which i really wanted to buy; however, i didn't. haha!

lately, however, i find myself buying more and more lipstick, lip glosses and blushers. however, i didn't end up buying a bunch.. whenever i go to places, i wanted to buy some blushers or lippies, i will end up not buying it.. thank goodness.

thanks 4 the tips n sharing. Mj,i bot some elf goodies frm strawberrygirl. Waiting for cs to hv sale lol.meantime maybe will do some research on manly n wales120. Imho,i try to make an informed decision eventho info is imperfect. Until am quite satisfied n comfortable to decidd,investigate till then or differ esp. Trivial ones. Pls pm me if any1 used manly or other similar cs products. I c cs users v.happy so no doubt it is gud.Many cosmetics manufac. Produce 4 diff brandnames n the ingrediants r v. Similar perhaps just packaging,concentration or scent.

Added on June 22, 2010, 1:21 amOh whilst doing some browsing saw ebay selling brandless palettes for less than $1 and shipping is $10-13. I guess it should work out to almost half price vs. CS palette (88 colors). And lelong.com also there's a seller-rm65 for the 88 palette free postage,also got other 'CS' makeup. But oh my, copied exact text from CS website. That's going to the extreme as it says it is CS palette but photo doesn't show the CS cover and I understand that now the logo of CS is on every color? It does seem the lelong palette and the HK (ebay) are the same thus, cheaper to buy from HK through ebay although, because of some bad experiences with ebay (the sellers are one thing but the way ebay operates and deals with disputes) I won't buy from them. They look so good on the outside, have trouble, they try not to help you. They want $$ so be careful, fraudsters who again and again set up shops and build their reputation and then they disappear only to appear again as another seller and e-bay does very little to stop this. Of course they make you think they are doing their best but in actual fact it is not the case. Sad even pathetic but true. I really want to caution people about ebay. Their safety measures are weaker vs. some other sites. Don't buy expensive stuff unless you are so very sure the seller is genuine.

CS is having promotion $36.95 (savings $10.90).Check their website:
88 Warm Palette
10 Piece Professional Blush Palette
Rich Volume Mascara; contains emollients for treating your lashes while offering lengthening that will last throughout your day.

If anyone wants to share? I just want the warm palette.

Added on June 26, 2010, 3:20 pmso far, i really have no any problems dealing at ebay. oh well.. perhaps there are ppl who had bad experiences but not me.. usually i buy it from top rated seller.
